The greatest man alive novel (by Maverick Bowman)
Chapter 95

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.

If other gamblers had such a big trump card, under such circumstances, they would definitely not dare to continue asking for cards.

However, Lecan was the God of Gamblers whose gambling skills were better than anyone else. In such a risky situation, he had forcibly gathered twenty-one points!

"It's your turn, Mr. Nathan." Lecan leaned back in his chair and laughed.

Nathan's trump card was already within his expectations. It was a six of diamonds, and the dealer's card could not be one reaching twenty-one points with just a six. He had already won. When Natasha and James saw this, their faces could not help but reveal proud smiles.

Natasha even said, "Nathan, if you surrender now, I can forgive you on account of Jade. I'm not very interested in your cheap life. However, you can avoid the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment. You've got to jump off the cruise ship and swim back to Mimar City."

After hearing this, Nathan directly sneered and said, "You really are the same as her. Both of you guys talk like a superior."

"How dare you! Ms. Porter gave you a chance, but you don't know how to cherish it? God of Gamblers has already gotten 21 points, and he is sure to win!"

"I don't believe that your luck is so good that you actually have an A in your hand to make it a blackjack!"

"Ms. Porter is willing to give you a chance but you don't cherish it, and now you actually dare to sneer? In a while, I will see how you die with my own eyes!"

Everyone was disdainful. Lecan had already gotten twenty-one points. Victory was in his grasp. Nathan could not beat him no matter what.

Carl shook his head as he watched from the side. He felt that Nathan was too arrogant. Perhaps his medical skills were unique, but gambling was a totally different story for him! "Hit!" Nathan said coldly to the dealer.

The dealer handed out the card with a whoosh. Nathan opened it and saw the King of Spades.

Lecan smiled faintly and said, "Your luck is not bad. It is actually a King. However, your trump card is not A... Two fives are already in my hands. Do you want to take a risk?"

"Risk? It's not that severe." Nathan said lightly, "Hit!"

The dealer sent out the second card, which was a Six of Hearts.

"Burst!" Lecan said coldly.

Burst meant to get more cards of a certain suit than they can play in a single turn. Nathan had a six in his hand, plus one King and one six, and it was already twenty-two points. It had already burst. "Hahaha, it burst just like that? What a piece of trash. He even dares to play cards with God of Gamblers?"

"Let's wait for Mr. Evans to die. Everyone will come to his funeral tomorrow!"

"This is the result of being arrogant and conceited. Everyone, watch carefully!"

Everyone ridiculed him repeatedly. Each and every one of them was extremely ridiculing. Nathan had bet his life on it. Now, his card had burst, and he was going to die as well.

Natalie and Hannah's hearts couldn't help but tighten, and their faces turned pale.

"Forget it, he asked for it. I can't do anything about it..." Natalie was depressed and a little sad. She shook her head gently.

"Impossible... Mr. Evans burst just like that? I don't believe it!" Hannah was shocked.

Nathan smiled faintly and said, "Hit!"

After Lecan heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "You have already burst, why are you still acting tough here?"

"You said I burst? Say again." Nathan asked indifferently and then turned to the dealer, "Hit!"

The dealer was indeed professional. After hearing Nathan's words, he did not say anything and sent out the next card. It was a two.

"Can't afford to lose?" Lecan stood up and asked coldly, his voice was filled with killing intent.
