It had the same weird points system where you would gain and lose points based on how far you went over or under. I was so bad at it, that mainly it was a masochistic mechanic to get my character to lose. But yeah that is why it is in the game haha, it is not meant to be a copy of blackjack itself, just a stupid childhood memory since I wasn't allowed to have real games.
