Running Count Blackjack Novels & Stories

He had already exceeded that amount and even dipped into his own funds. The man was growing increasingly frustrated. “You’ve been winning non-stop and you’re always dealing the cards. I haven’t even had a chance to deal. And now it’s just the three of us. So, how about this? We’ll combine the numbers on our five cards. If it’s a double-digit number, we only take the last digit!” The man, frustrated by his losses, tried to change the rules. “You keep insinuating that we’re cheating. With all these people watching, how could we possibly cheat?”

He obviously can't keep his hands to himself. I don't even know why I bother. Eight chips and deer cards were displayed on both our front. "Two chips to start the game, as long as you can bet at least two chips, Leo. Two chips equal 10$,” I explained. Surprisingly Leo wasn't naive like l had imagined although he still played like a rookie. “You don't put extra chips on top, you put them below,” l corrected him with a cocky smirk. "You win, Mason,” Leo praised, sitting back with his eyes still on the game and my father scoffed; gulping a glass of champagne because I broke the first rule of playing a blackjack which states that you don't tell your dealer how to play yet I still ended up winnin

“People who believe that they’d lose will keep adding cards to their hand just to feel safe. “It’s fine to add a card or two in a game like Blackjack… “But if you add too many, you’ll be destined to go bust. “You can check the past footages as well. Other than the ones where Mateo has a good hand, he must’ve won because his opponents kept busting. “Including this round here…” Fabian gasped. He should have been able to figure this out… But his attention was so focused on Mateo and his subordinates that he completely forgot such an important detail… What a legendary blind spot! As expected, after having a total of eighteen points in the Great Gambler’s hand, he kept asking for more before even

Janine was eager to start, "The base is set at 100 thousand, no objections, right?" Whitney was shocked. Although she didn't know the rules, if the base was 20 thousand, and a four of a kind would double the bet, that would be 40 thousand, and there were all kinds of other doubling rules as well. If calculated like this, losing a million in one round was very possible. It could even be in the tens of millions. And she didn't fully understand the rules. "I don't know how to play..." she whispered softly into Caleb's ear.

Benjamin stared at me for a while before joining a table. I pressed the earpiece on me. “I’m waiting,” I said. “Table eight,” Matthew’s voice came. I stepped forward, joining a table. Mathew guided me. I wasn't sure how he got the money but he made me place big bets. Out of five games, I won once. Not even half of what I lost was gained. Unlike me, Benjamin was on a winning streak. He moved from table to table, advancing slowly to the highest table. Mathew gave me a breakdown of how this place works. People might choose to remain at one table but different tables have different lowest points of bets. Some tables are for the big fishes —a million and nothing less is the base.

“Then I’ll a kiss as repayment.” “Is a thousand dollars your last bet?” The Dealer asks. I sigh and push nine more thousand chips. “There you go,” Charles says. Everyone else places their bet, and the dealer hands out the card. I pick up my card; it’s a two. “Hit.” Someone says, and the Dealer hands him a card. Three others say hit and get another card. Charles looks at my hand and leans over, and whispers in my ears. “You need to say hit.” “Hit,” I say and receive a queen from the Dealer. So now I have twelve. The object is to get more than the Dealer or not go over 21. It seems easy enough. If I can get a nine or eight, then I may win this.

The symbols aligned, and to both their surprise, the machine chimed, indicating a win. They exchanged glances, and Ashley couldn't contain her excitement. "See, Ian? Luck is on our side tonight!" Encouraged by their initial success, Ashley led Ian to a blackjack table. She handed him a stack of chips, saying, "Let's try this! It's all about strategy." Ian, still a bit skeptical, took a seat, and Ashley joined him. As the cards were dealt, Ashley's enthusiasm was infectious. She guided Ian through the game, explaining the rules and suggesting strategic moves.

Once that had been engaged, he changed the spell to suit his skill. "Okay, so I'm gonna flip for this summon. Major arcana is worth ten with exception of the Fool which can be one or ten. Court cards are five points and number cards as numbered. Summon goes well if I beat the house to fifteen. So, shall we? The game is Four-Count Stand Off." Jinx split the deck. He started to flick the cards into the summon circle. As some of them landed not just right side up but standing on end vertically, he started counting up the score for the house. "Two… Seven… Eleven."

He asks for the same amount of chips as the previous one. And so, finally comes the Bash turn, who's studying Eleonor's face with amusement. He holds out the card. “I want four million on chips…” Then he smirks at the first two winners, “Give me half in black ones… it's possible, right?” The guard looks at the Dealer, who shrugs. The bouncer passes ten red chips (Each 10K), ninety-five green chips (Each 20K) … and the requested twenty black chips (Each 100K).
