Flavor Text	Not content with merely beating the casinos at their own games, Black Jack is always searching for another method of raking in the big bucks. Be sure not to call attention to the extra cards up his sleeve, because he can split heads as easily as a pair of aces or eights. In addition to card games he likes to beat people up.

Black Jack's Special Rules

The T-Swing dice cannot be set to 12.

Black Jack's Skills

Triplet

Button Notation:	Three numbers in a frame
BMO Notation:	Not implemented

Triplet dice are played as three dice that are rolled together and added together.

For example, a Triplet (10,10,1) is treated as a single die that can roll values between 3 and 21, are captured as one, and scored as one die worth 21 points.

T Swing Dice can be any die between 2 and 12. Swing Dice are allowed to be any integral size between their upper and lower limit, including both ends, and including nonstandard die sizes like 17 or 9. Each player chooses his or her Swing Die in secret at the beginning of the match, and thereafter the loser of each round may change their Swing Die between rounds. If a character has any two Swing Dice of the same letter, they must always be the same size.

Special Note

Black Jack isn't implemented on Button Mean Online since Triplet Dice are not implemented there. A version of Black Jack known as "Twenty-One" has a Twin Die (10,11) instead of Black Jack's Triplet Die.
