Blackjack isn’t a difficult game so everyone thinks they can play it. My father was a typical example. He thought luck would come his way but he lost everything instead. And I need that money. I want to be something he never was. I can’t think of anything else but humiliating him. He had fifteen years to change There’s no other way.
