I Spy With My Secret Eyes

Chapter 154

The banker couldn’t wait to deal cards, because he was also worried that Oliver would regret it and stop calling for cards.

The dealer thought, “Isn’t it better to wait and see this greedy man bust?”

A card was dealt. The banker was stunned when he saw that it was hearts A!

Denise complained faintly, but when she saw that the card was A, she was surprised and grabbed Oliver’s arm.

“It’s A, it’s A, it’s A. Six little Blackjacks, we win, triple, we win 30,000 Oros!”

The banker’s eyes darkened and he said in his heart, “He even got the only A that could win. Damn it, he was so lucky!” To make matters worse, the dealer lost 30,000 Oros at his gambling table! Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

But if you lose, you lose. You can’t regret it.

The banker wiped the sweat with his trembling hands and paid Oliver 30,000 Oros.

With the principal of 10,000 Oros, that was 40,000 Oros in total.

Other guests followed Oliver’s example and ordered three cards in a row. As a result, they busted on the fourth card. The banker’s own card was 8. The one he ordered was 7, 15 points in total. And the card next was 4, 19 points in total. The dealer could only keep on betting. If he got Blackjack, he wouldn’t lose.

He wasn’t as lucky as Oliver. The fourth card was 10. He busted.

Oliver looked at Wayne’s feature phone used to contact the kidnapper, but there was no call or text received. He had to wait. He was a little anxious and pushed out the 40,000 Oros he had just gotten and bet again.

Denise was stunned and hurriedly stopped him. “Mr. Eastwood, gambling is gambling. It’s all about luck. You just won 30,000 Oros. We should hang it up before we lose. There is no need to be so crazy about gambling. This is not safe.” Oliver said absent-mindedly, “Just bet. It doesn’t matter.”

Denise couldn’t help smiling bitterly. Oliver was so stubborn that he wouldn’t listen to her at all.

The 40,000-Oro bet even made the banker nervous.

This wasn’t the VIP room upstairs. This was where ordinary gamblers played.

Seeing Oliver bet so fiercely, the other three guests also noticed him.

Beginning of the new game, the banker dealt the first card.

Oliver got a Spades Q, 10 points.

One of the first two guests ordered a 9 and then stopped. Oliver identified the guest’s card, which was 10, so 19 points in total. The guest did have to stop.

The second guest’s card is an 8, followed by a 2.

The first guest couldn’t help but pat his thigh and cried out in annoyance.

If he had called for another card, he could have gotten exactly 21 points, the Blackjack!

But there were not so many ifs.

The second guest got 10 points from two cards, so he had to call again. Then he called for another card, which was a K, so 20 points from three cards.

The second guest immediately shook his hand and stopped. After 20, he could only win with an A. Any other card would bust.

Oliver looked at the next card and saw it was really an A, Spades A.

Oliver took this chance and waved his hand to call for a card.

The card was Spades A. The guest opened his mouth and cursed. He actually missed Blackjack!

Oliver’s two cards, a Q and an A added up to exactly 21 points, Blackjack!

The winning bets for the two-card Blackjack were twice the original bet, and Oliver bet 40,000 Oros. Therefore, he could get 80,000 Oros. Plus interest, it was 120,000 Oros.

The banker was dumbfounded, and he felt like he was about to faint!

He must also get Blackjack in order not to lose, but that was a long shot.

The fourth guest bust. Only two of them were still in the game. The other guest got 20 points and Oliver 21 points, the Blackjack.

The banker’s hand was trembling. His card was 7 of Clubs, which was the worst number in terms of probability. The best card to play Blackjack was either the largest or the smallest.

The two largest cards could add up to 21 points, and the two 10s could add up to 20 points, which was most likely the winner.

If it was all small cards, the player could still win a lot. As long as the banker wasn’t Blackjack, the player could basically win.

Therefore, no one liked the middle cards. One could get 16 or 17 points with a big card. He could easily bust if he drew another card. The probability of winning wasn’t high if he didn’t draw, so it was an embarrassing number.

The banker drew another card, and it was a 10, so 17 points.

He had no choice but to draw and bet again. The first guest’s bet was 100 Oros, which didn’t matter whether the dealer won or lost. But Oliver’s bet was 40,000 Oros, so the dealer mustn’t lose!

When the dealer was getting another card, the guest who took 20 points in front of Oliver murmured, “Bust! Bust! Bust!”

He didn’t want the dealer to get 3 or 4. If the dealer got 3, it would be 20 points, just like his points. He wouldn’t lose and nor could he win if it was a tie.

If the dealer got 4, it was 21, the Blackjack. Then he would lose.

The card dealt was a Spades 5, and the total number of points was 22. It busted.

The guest clapped his hands in excitement and shouted, “OK!”

Oliver won.

Denise’s heart was pounding. Oliver won another round with a 40,000-Oro bet. He got the Blackjack, so he won 80,000 Oros.

And he won 120,000 Oros within just two rounds.

Oliver didn’t feel anything. What he cared about was why the phone still didn’t ring.

The banker’s sweat ran unstoppably. He gave Oliver the 80,000 Oros.

Oliver pushed all the chips and bet again.

That was 120,000 Oros.

The banker’s face changed, and he stammered.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit came over and said to Oliver with a big smile, “Sir, please continue playing upstairs in the VIP room. Unlike here in the lobby, there is no limit on the number of bets in the room upstairs. The maximum bet is 100,000 Oros. For your enjoyment, please go upstairs.”

Oliver didn’t understand, so Denise quickly translated for him.

Oliver looked at the phone in Wayne’s hand and then at the person who invited him. After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, “Okay, but I don’t think I’ll stay there long.”

The man smiled and said, “Of course. We don’t limit the time of our guests here. You can leave anytime you want.”

Oliver nodded. After he found that his identification skills could be used for this game, he became kind of addicted. In addition, the kidnapper didn’t call, so he continued to play.

The VIP room upstairs was divided into many rooms, and the middle-aged man introduced the rules to them while leading them over. “Sir, there are several levels of VIP rooms here. The limit is 100,000 Ores to 500,000 Oros for junior guests, 500,000 to 1 million Oros for intermediate guests, and 1 million to 5 million Oros for senior guests. There is no limit for guests in the supreme gambling rooms. Which one do you want to go?”

After listening to Denise’s translation, Oliver thought for a while and replied, “The senior level, the one with the limit of 1 million to 5 million Oros.”

Oliver suddenly thought, “The kidnapper asked for a ransom of 10 million Oros. So I have to prepare 10 million Oros anyway. Since I’m more than 90% sure that I can win now, why not place some big bets to get the ransom?”
