According to the rules, Basil Jaak scored twenty-one points, allowing him to take the entire pot.
Seeing a sizeable pile of chips and money appear before Basil Jaak in just a moment, anyone who said they weren't envious would be lying.
Basil Jaak ignored envious glances aimed at him, waiting for the dealer to shuffle and start placing bets for the second round.
Once the dealer finished shuffling the cards, Basil Jaak instantly placed a bet by pushing forward all his money and tokens, making the spectators roll their eyes.
"Has this guy gone mad?"
"I told you he was an idiot, and he sure is!"
"Only an idiot would believe that they could be this lucky again."
Amidst the crowd's chatter, Basil Jaak shrugged it off with a nonchalant chuckle, saying, "Who cares, this money isn't mine anyway. I'll put it all on the line again. If I win, it's a windfall, and if I lose, no harm done."
