PC [BUG] CalicoJack dealer may get cards with values of more than 11

Hello,

CalicoJack dealer can get cards with values of more than what's stated in the rules (11). We've seen values over 11 a number of times. Highest number we saw was 20.
It seem to show up as a last card the dealer gets and only when player has 18 or more.

This is on Windows and game version is 1.5.4.

Thanks

There is nothing saying what deck the game uses.

Internally the game isn't using a deck, it just rolls random numbers based on things like the player's/dealer's current hand.

Sorry for late reply - I haven't been playing the game for a while. Here is a screenshot showing dealer being dealt a 16. I'm pretty sure the rules state that the maximum possible value is 11 so that shouldn't happen.

@BlaDe Actually, you can ask the game to explain the rules of the CalicoJack and it states that first card can be between 1 and 11 and other cards are between 1 and 9. So in that sense, either the rules have changed and have not been updated or there is a bug with the cards showed by the dealer.

The code got updated to favour the player.
When you have [18,19,20] there is a [10,25,50]% chance that the dealer just busts.

I didn’t get a screen shot of it but one round instead of a number it showed a blueberry/some blue circle and then it showed the dealers total as ??? Before saying I won.
