I get an error for window.Read() function in PySimpleGUI

Question

I am new to programming and just started trying a blackjack game using PySimpleGUI. I don't know why I am getting error on the line event,values = window.Read() in the end. Any help is appreciated.

import PySimpleGUI as sg
import random

# Creating multiple varibales to be used throughout
deck = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
hand = []
dealer_hand = []
random1 = random.randint(1,10)
random2 = random.randint(1,10)
dealer1 = random.randint(1,10)
dealer2 = random.randint(1,10)
welcome =  [ [sg.Text('Welcome to blackjack', text_color='#000000', font=('Times New Roman', 
16,'bold'))],
[sg.Text('Rules: You will be dealt 2 cards and the same for the dealer. The dealer will', 
text_color='#000000')],
[sg.Text(' only reveal one of his cards. Your objective is to reach close to 21 without crossing it',
                  text_color='#000000')],
         [sg.Text(' Aces can be 1 or 11, all face cards are 10. If you choose to stand, your total 
should be more than the dealer'
                  ,
                    text_color='#000000')],
         [sg.Button('Start!')]]
window = sg.Window('Welcome', background_color = '#FFFFFF').Layout(welcome)
window.read()
window.close()

first = [ [sg.Text('The dealer has dealt the cards:', font=('Times New Roman'))],
          [sg.Text(f'Your two starting cards are {random1} and {random2}')],
          [sg.Text(f'Dealer shows his faced up card: {dealer1}')],
          [sg.Button('Hit'), sg.Button('Stand')] ]
       

window = sg.Window('First set', first)

event, values = window.Read()
print(event)

This is the very long error i get:

Yes, I get a very long error. Can't post the whole thing thing here because of character limit: I added it to the actual post @CoolCoder — josh galecki, May 22 '21 at 13:44

You set wrong font here

first = [ [sg.Text('The dealer has dealt the cards:', font=('Times New Roman'))],
          [sg.Text(f'Your two starting cards are {random1} and {random2}')],
          [sg.Text(f'Dealer shows his faced up card: {dealer1}')],
          [sg.Button('Hit'), sg.Button('Stand')] ]

Font as a tuple whose first element is the font family, followed by a size (in points if positive, in pixels if negative), optionally followed by a string containing one or more of the style modifiers bold, italic, underline, and overstrike.

You missed the size for option font.
