11 episodes. ace? Ace of spades?
I asked Jinho and Hyunjeong.
What the hell happened here?
They said that when they came here at the suggestion of the casino, it was only them and the dealer.
The guys also played baccarat here, and even though the stakes grew, it still worked out well.
Even if it wasn’t for me, I guess I was lucky.
The problem was when the Chinese appeared.
Even though we had been seated in advance, we recklessly entered the room and the casino staff got the consent of Jinho and Hyeonjeong without even thinking about it.
He said that when he made money, he thought, ‘Good things are good’.
I didn’t want the flow to be interrupted by making noise for nothing.
“There, they suggested that we try playing the game against each other.”
“Did you agree to that?”
“……”
By looking at his face, I can tell.
There must have been a desire to show the Jailbreak to those who interrupted in the noise.
“So, you hit 300 million won?”
“……”
“What is 100 million collateral?”
“The guy who came with that guy turned this room into a junket. I borrowed his passport from him as collateral.”
“Hey, what else is junket?”
“that is······”
junket.
It is said that the system was created by Grens Wu, the son of Stanley Wu, the godfather of Macau casinos.
In a word, a casino within a casino.
It is to create an independent private casino by chartering the VIP room of the casino.
So what happens there is the responsibility of the junket operator who rented the room.
In Macau and Southeast Asia, it is said that they do not hesitate to lend large amounts of money within the junket room.
However, he said that there are not only bad features.
On the casino side, it is easy to recruit VIPs through the networks of junket operators.
“Are you out of your mind?”
“I, I didn’t know it was going to be like this.”
I expected it, but I must have closed my eyes. Hopefully, I hope
I said as I pulled up a chair next to the Chinese.
“Let’s play a game with me.”
At the same time, he exchanged 300 million chips to the dealer for small chips.
The eyes of the three changed as a large number of chips lined up.
“Ha, ha.”
In English, bastard.
“Brother, are you okay?”
“Be quiet. Don’t distract yourself.”
I cut Jin-ho’s words coldly and looked at the Chinese in front of me.
They laughed and chatted among themselves.
Then a middle-aged man suggested to me.
“How about one-on-one? The game is blackjack.”
It was meant to be a player-to-player match.
“That’s right.”
“Let’s apply the casino rules as they are, but allow double downs and splits.”
“Double down? Split?”
what else is that
“Hahaha, I guess you don’t know.”
The middle-aged man smiled, but explained the rules with an eerie look.
Why do you have those eyes?
Sending ridicule mixed with laughter as if looking down at the other person…
It’s like you don’t even know, you idiot? Still want to stick with me? seemed to do
After hearing the explanation,
‘It’s nothing.’
Blackjack is a game in which the player whose sum of cards is closer to 21 wins.
You are initially dealt 2 cards, and you can draw an unlimited number of cards until you reach 21.
A double down is to double the bet amount instead of receiving just one more card that can be received unlimitedly.
Splits can be divided into two hands if the same card is dealt.
Usually, a split is made when two aces are received, and when splitting, the first round starts with an ace, and after the hand is over, the second round can be played with another aces.
In a nutshell, in blackjack, an ace is a very useful and winning hand.
A split is a device that allows you to use this ace in two consecutive rounds.
“Let’s get started.”
At my signal the dealer started the game.
“Please place a bet. The minimum bet is $3,000.”
“……!”
It’s 3 million won to go to school. (When I was young, my neighborhood called ‘Let’s go to school’ when betting.)
It was brief, but it was bland.
‘This was the VIP room. let’s not be scared Of course.’
Two cards from the deck are dealt to me and two to the Chinese man.
One of them was open.
I grabbed my hidden tile and confirmed it.
‘Open card heart 8, clover queen in hand…’
18 is fine.
I checked my opponent’s hand with clairvoyance.
‘Open card diamond jack, three hearts in hand.’
Since the number is low, I thought I might get one more card.
Unsurprisingly, he tapped the table with his index finger, indicating his intention to ‘hit’.
The dealer turns a card to him.
When I checked through clairvoyance, the card was a spade 4.
It’s not bad with a total of 17, but it’s lower than my hand. Huh.
“Would you like to get more cards from Player 2?”
At the dealer’s question, I swept the table horizontally with the back of my hand up.
stay.
It means you won’t get it.
what? How do you know Hit and Stay?
I am Kim In-ha today.
It all comes out all-in.
“Player number 1 with the highest open card will be given the opportunity to bet first.”
The Chinese man raised $10,000 without hesitation.
Ugh, don’t you take care of your face?
He hung one corner of his mouth over his ear, and was chattering as if asking him to follow him.
“Do you want to raise player number 2?”
“Take another ten thousand dollars.”
“Player 2 raised you. Do you want to raise Player 1?”
“Ha-ha-ha. Get another 20,000 dollars!”
“I got 20,000 bucks and 20,000 more!”
If you’re scared, whatever.
I looked at my opponent with a poker face as much as possible.
If I smiled here, I thought I would look cheap like that person in front of me.
“Hey, are you going too hard from the first game?
“Is that so? I only bet 63,000 dollars… And gamble is a battle of momentum, isn’t it?”
“Heh, are you going to subdue the steamship? Seeing the Diamond Jack here?”
I shrugged.
“Okay. Cole. Let’s see where the momentum will go.”
The Chinese man opened the two cards in his hand on the table and continued speaking.
“Seventeen.”
“okay.”
I carelessly set the clover queen down on the table.
Eighteen, I’ll eat well. Huh.
“Player number two, Win.”
The card was retrieved by the dealer and the chip moved towards me with a pleasant sound.
One plate is 63 million won, honey.
“Let’s start round two. Please place your bets.”

“George. Third floor, Jason connected.”
George nodded at the employee’s words.
He had a frown on his face.
“Jason, you gave up room 10 as a junket? Why did you do that?”
“Then what about it. Chinese people recklessly go into Room 10 and ask for a junket…. As a Floor Pulson, you can’t say bad things to a Chinese junket operator, can you?”
The Chinese could be said to be the biggest customers of The Stars.
In particular, junket operators played a big role in VIP marketing, so it was even more important.
“ha······”
George put his forehead on his forehead and sighed.
If it is junket, you cannot recover money from the Koreans who entered room 10.
This was because the profits from the room went to the junket operator and the casino was supposed to receive 20% of it.
“George, we negotiated up to 30% of the proceeds.”
“Okay. You’ll have to keep an eye on it so there won’t be any problems.”
It is a junket room with a daily income of 5 million dollars.
At 30%, it would be 1 million dollars, so it was calculated that the 500,000 dollars lost to the Koreans could be sufficiently recovered.
George, oddly enough, was still concerned about Room 10.
“I’m a little tired. I’ll come over for a cup of coffee, so if anything happens, call me.”
“Yes, George. You may come slowly.”
George patted the employee on the shoulder and left the central control room.
It was then that I went down to the casino and bought coffee in the store.
“George. Long time no see.”
When I turned around, the old gentleman was looking at him with a warm smile.
“Henry! How much is this? When did you come?”
“I just came here. I couldn’t sleep at night, so I was afraid to touch the slots or something.”
“Could you please call me?”
“What’s the contact? It’s just an old man’s pastime, can you bother a busy person?”
“Ugh, Sir Henry is here, and you have to come right away.”
“Hey, man. I didn’t say anything because it’s so burdensome. Eying, I thought I’d pretend I didn’t see it.”
“Anyway, you would have been caught because the CCTV has a facial recognition function. Heh heh.”
The two looked at each other and smiled.
“But what’s wrong with you?”
Henry said, pointing to the coffee in George’s hand.
“You said you only eat espresso at that time, maybe?”
“You still have a good memory. I’m glad you corrected it.
“What’s going on?”
“that is······”
George told me what happened at the second floor baccarat table.
“Heh heh, 500,000 dollars? It’s a pretty big amount, but there’s nothing that can’t be done with three great gamblers. Isn’t there something else?”
“You’re also sharp.”
“Don’t make fun of me, just tell me.”
“That’s not all three of them pros. And…”
George split the three into two and one depending on their gamble style, and the two said they lost all their money on the third floor and even lost money borrowed from junkets.
“Hey, is that one person bothering you? Do you think that half a million dollars is due to that one person?”
“I’m not sure. It’s just to confirm that. If so…”
“David, you’re the first Gero since that friend. Isn’t it?”
“Yes. I just started playing blackjack in the junket room.”
“Go.”
Henry patted George’s arm and said.
“Yes?”
“Are you telling me to miss this great spectacle?”
“Henry!”
George called out the old gentleman’s name and ran after him, who took the lead at a brisk pace.
“Ahh!”
***
The game went briskly.
In terms of other amounts so far, I am superior.
However, a few rounds ago, the Chinese men started chasing them quickly.
in a way I could not have imagined.
‘This is possible even in a casino.”
At first, I doubted my eyes.
Maybe I’ve seen something wrong…
ten minutes ago,
Two cards are dealt to each player.
‘Heart Queen, Heart Jack.’
The number of cards in my hand was 20.
It was the strongest hand except for blackjack.
‘That’s the King of Spades, Clover 9.’
It’s a good hand, but this time, only 1 is a low number. Huh.
“Stay.”
“Stay.”
A situation in which all players no longer receive cards. I was sure of victory.
However, he tried his best not to show his expression until the end.
If you win this edition, your profit will reach 1 billion won.
Can’t laugh?
From then on, all kinds of incantations such as Namu Amitabha, Dondegirigiri, and Domak Salam came out.
Even then, I remembered the portrait of my grandfather who passed away because it was not enough.
‘It’s because I’m rich, so I can’t afford to lose hundreds of millions of dollars, right?’
The Chinese man still had a fishy smile on his face.
I thought I would at least chew shit, but my expectations were wrong.
‘Don’t you know that 200 million won on this board?’
It was thanks to the series of raises from raises to raises.
I have nothing to be afraid of, because I bet by looking at all the hands.
By the way.
“Player 2, Queen of Hearts and Jack of Hearts. It’s 20. And…”
The dealer looked at the Chinese man’s hand and said.
“Player number one, king of spades and ace of spades. Blackjack. 21. Player number one, Win.”
ace?
Ace of spades?
