Both Nathan and Lecan did not have the best trump card.
In a Blackjack game, the best trump card was undoubtedly Ace. Ace could be regarded as 1 or 11.
If the dealer’s next card was anywhere between 10 to K, then it would directly add up to a “Blackjack”.
Because it was a one-time game, the dealer only sent one card, directly skipping Split, Pass, Double, Insurance and others.
After Lecan obtained his trump card, he smiled at the dealer and said, “Hit!”
The dealer nodded. In front of everyone, he sent the first card to Lecan’s table.
Lecan opened it and it was a five.
“If I remember correctly, the next card is still five.” Lecan’s expression was cold and his mind was rapidly calculating.
His finger knocked on the table and he smiled slightly. “Hello!”
Without another word, the dealer took out a second card and handed it to Lecan.
“Five or Six always sucks. An ordinary person would have a headache if they got a five or six. If they reject it, the points would be too few. If they accept it, it would easily burst.”
“Lecan the God of Gamblers has a card up his sleeve. He still dares to continue to ask for the card after getting a five. Moreover, he doesn’t hesitate. It is clear that he already has victory in his grasp.”
“He has clearly remembered what the next few cards are. The one surnamed Evans has already lost after giving up this one.”
The spectators whispered to one another, feeling that Lecan would win without a doubt.
When Wendy heard these words, her hands could not help but sweat. She was a little nervous. After all, she was the one who paid the most.
Nathan leaned against the chair, one hand covering his trump card. His fingers were raised, tapping lightly on the table, as if he did not take Lecan seriously.
Since the trump card was sent to the hands of the two people, neither of them looked at the cards. It was obvious that they had already remembered the cards when the dealer was still shuffling.
What kind of amazing memory was this?
However, since he had memorized the cards, why did Nathan give up the first card so easily?
Shouldn’t the first card be the more ideal one of the two!?
Lecan had already opened the second card, and it was still a five.
“It’s ten points now. I wonder how many points the God of Gamblers’ trump card?” Someone said in a low voice.
“I don’t have any clue. It might be a ten or an Ace. Otherwise, he wouldn’t ask for cards like this, right?” Another person said.
Natalie and Hannah were also extremely nervous, their eyes staring straight at the dealer’s hand, both of them simultaneously expecting Lecan to burst after the next card.
Lecan smiled at the dealer and said, “Hit!”
The dealer threw out the third card.
As soon as Lecan opened it, the scene immediately erupted with a cry of surprise. It was actually a two!
Now, Lecan had four cards in addition to his trump card. If he got another card, and it did not burst, it would be a “Five Dragons” card that outpointed a Blackjack.
Of course, “Five Dragons” was only popular in the area around Hechland. In the overseas area, everyone was used to a traditional way of playing, and they were competing in points alone.
“Twenty-one points.” Lecan expressionlessly opened his trump card and revealed his cards. His trump card was a nine of clubs, and with the two fives on the table and the two he had just obtained, it was exactly twenty-one points!
When everyone saw that Lecan’s trump card was a nine of clubs, their blood boiled even more and they could not help but applaud and cheer.
