The player would give a slight indentation at the edge of the card with his thumb's nail. The most important thing was to do it as gently as possible so that no one could notice. To the trained eye, however, these marks could be seen easily.
But the dealer himself also had his own way such as hiding cards, second deals, peeking etc.
In the first round, this did not produce too many interesting events, and it seemed like Rossa and the others tried to see Ryan's ability by betting small.
Finally, the first round had been completed, Ryan still had as much as 80 chips while Rossa led by having as many as 110.
After confirming it in the first round, Rossa got serious. The stakes wagered in this game were not cheap with each player giving 2 billion to the pot. So the winner would bag 8 billion.
