GAMBLING! WE ALL LOVE IT OR HATE IT IN OUR OWN WAYS, BUT NONETHELESS WE KEEP CRAWLING BACK TO IT. ANOTHER EASY GAME THIS TIME: BLACKJACK. NO, NOT *THAT* BLACK-JACK FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PLAYED A DUBIOUS GAME WITH YOUR FRIENDS THAT ARRIVED IN THE MAIL. THE RULES ARE SIMPLE; TAKE YOUR STANDARD DECK OF 52 CARDS AND REMOVE THE JOKERS, YOU WANT TO BEAT THE DEALER BY GETTING AS CLOSE TO 21 OR 21 *EXACTLY* WITHOUT GOING OVER OTHERWISE YOU 'BUST,' EUGH. BOTH YOU AND THE DEALER RECEIVE TWO CARDS, BOTH OF YOUR CARDS ARE FACE UP WHILE ONLY ONE CARD IS FACE UP FOR THE DEALER. WHEN THE CARDS ARE DEALT AND IT IS YOUR TURN YOU CAN TAKE A 'HIT' AND GAIN ANOTHER CARD TO YOUR TOTAL WHICH YOU CAN DO THIS AS MUCH AS YOU WANT UNTIL YOU STOP OR GO OVER 21, 'STAND' WHICH YOU STICK WITH THE TOTAL YOU HAVE AT THAT MOMENT, OR YOU COULD 'DOUBLE DOWN' (A PERSONAL FAVORITE OF MINE) IN WHICH YOU TAKE ANOTHER CARD AND *ONLY* THAT CARD FOR THE REST OF THAT HAND IN EXCHANGE OF DOUBLING YOUR BET. ACES COUNT AS 1'S OR 11'S DEPENDING ON WHETHER OR NOT THE HIGHER NUMBER MAKES YOU 'BUST' AND FACE CARDS COUNT AS 10'S, GETTING AN ACE AND A FACE CARD/10 RIGHT OFF THE BAT WINS YOU THE HAND, SAME GOES FOR THE DEALER IF IT HAPPENS TO THEM. THIS IS AN EASY GAME FOR KILLING SMALL AMOUNTS TIME AND MAKING SOME DECENT MOOLAH OUT OF IT IF YOU ACTUALLY BET MONEY ON IT AND DON'T FUCKING CHICKEN OUT OF IT, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. 21/10 GAME, NEVER LOST MORE MONEY BEFORE IN MY LIFESPAN.
Use to rack up a Blackjack scam Back in my college heynights! Good times.
