Your current total is: 14 <--- this variable is frozen to this number and not changing to
a new number. I can't find where to make the adjustment.

To make your code more readable please use [code] tags as described here.

Quote:
attempt to compare nil with number

This is your error message, and it's only caused by one thing (comparing nil with a number).

You would get the same message if you did

print(nil <= 12)

Why do you have those variable="bjtotal" lines all over?

The variable bjtotal belong to this alias


<triggers>
  <trigger
   enabled="y"
   group="Blackjack"
   keep_evaluating="y"
   match="^(A blackjack dealer asks, ){0,1}'Will you hit,{0,1} (or ){0,1}stay,{0,1}( or double down){0,1},{0,1} Lyneirari\?'( a blackjack dealer asks\.){0,1}$"
   regexp="y"
   send_to="10"
   sequence="100"
  >
  <send>Blackjack_Game</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

This trigger calls to Blackjack_Game


<triggers>
  <trigger
   custom_colour="2"
   enabled="y"
   group="Blackjack"
   ignore_case="y"
   match="^Your current total is\: (.*?)\|Your current total is\: (.*?) \(soft\)$"
   regexp="y"
   send_to="12"
   sequence="100"
   variable="bjtotal"
  >
  <send>SetVariable ("bjtotal", "%1")
SetStatus ("Your current total is: %1")
</send>
  </trigger>
</triggers>

This trigger handles the player card total the player is holding.

the problem is SetStatus ("Your current total is: %1") is not changing if another is dealt, or new game.

I think your match line may have an extra backslash in it, before the `|` pipe symbol.
