Universal Blackjack Card Counter

This is a script that counts the value of cards for blackjack, displaying each player's (and the dealer's) hand value. It is made in such a way so that anyone, even someone who has no idea how Lua works, should be able to get it to work on their own blackjack table. VERY detailed instructions on how to do so are included.

• Counts Only Face Up Cards: Face-down cards, like the dealer's, do not display on the counter.
  
• Color Coded Counters: Counters are black, unless you hit 21, then it will turn green. If you bust, it will turn red. The dealer's counter does this too, but also turns yellow on 17-20.
  
• Automatic Blackjack Check: When the dealer has 1 face-down card and 1 face-up card, the script will automatically check if the dealer has blackjack. If they do, it announces it to everyone and flips over the dealer's face-down card.
  
• Error Protection: This counter will not spam errors if you hit Undo. Hitting undo DOES cause a single timer error for the host, but the script will still be working at 100%.
  
• Counts Cards That Are Accidently Stacked: As long as the stacked cards are face up, the tool will still display their count.
  
• Low Impact: I designed this code to have as little impact on load time/performance as possible.
  
• Commented Code: For scripters, I commented out the code to explain what each step is doing.

If anyone does use this script on their table, I do appreciate a credit for it somewhere. But that is exactly what this script is for. I hope you enjoy.

If you follow the instructions closely, but are still having trouble, put your code into a pastebin ( pastebin.com ) and post a comment for help.
