Chapter 162 Lela Caught That Intense Gaze

With the agreement inked and the casino buzzing with anticipation, thanks to Lela's charisma and Yaz's concern for his reputation and his unwavering confidence, the deal was struck in an instant.

A hush fell over the casino floor.

The cards were inspected and handed to the dealer to shuffle, cut, and layout in a seamless flow.

With the hole cards dealt, the dealer began the draw, starting counterclockwise.

Lela's upcard was a Queen; Yaz had a King - both held a solid ten.

In Blackjack, both Q and K were valued at ten; he was even with his opponent, perhaps even holding a stronger hand.

Yaz raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on Lela, filled with certainty.

Lela remained composed, her face showing not an ounce of fear.

On this hand, folding wasn't an option. It was all or nothing.

The dealer continued to draw cards counterclockwise. The second face-up card for Lela was an eight, and Yaz had landed an eight as well. Both had face-up cards of equal value.
