The next round

What we are doing

When a round is over, N or Space deals the next one. A deck running low (under 15 cards) is replaced by a fresh shuffled one. If you can't pay the bet any more, the round says so, and the next deal starts you over with 100 chips.

```js
if (bank < BET) bank = START // out of chips: start over
if (deck.length < 15) newDeck()

if (bank < BET) message += ' - out of chips!'

else if (button === 'Deal' && phase === 'done') deal()
```

What it means

• Deal works only when the round is done, so you can't throw away a bad hand.
• message += ... adds to the end of the message.

Your turn

1. At the top of deal, start over when out of chips and replace a low deck.
2. At the end of finish, add the out-of-chips note.
3. In press, deal when the round is done.
