Infinite loop - Blackjack

Andre Ekblom (16)
Heeeello!
So, i've made the game blackjack. When I bet all of my money and get busted the program will reset my player/s. That's a problem, because after the bust the program will ask the user if he/she wants to play again, if 'y' there is no longer a player, but the dealer is still there. The dealer will get cards but as there are no players the dealer will go into an infinite loop.

I can't see what I should do, please help. And if you want to see inside a function, please say so.

Okey, need to add more information. When the player have no money left, he will be resetted. Not just when busted.
You can play till all the money is gone, then there is an infinite loop.
