Face up cards: Jack has an Ace, Entan a 9, Teen A a Q, Quick-Flex a 2, the Grandmother a 3 and the Dealer a K. The dealer says, again, "Checking for blackjack: Are any blackjacks on the table?"

Sorry, that was a K. You have a blackjack.

The dealer looks and says, "No blackjack. Pay 3:2, sir?"

"Pay me please."

I believe that means Jack is making 15,000.

Exellent he'll leave the table and move to the next game that I mentioned already, he'll sit there and wait for the ball to land on red three times in a row, then place a 1,000,000 bet on the ball to land on black.

The group, an assortment of luck-lost teens and retirees combined with businessmen and fashionable women drinking drinks that make Cosmopolitans or Metropolitans look manly. Jack places a million onto the table. People are surprised; one man says, "Damn fool."
OOG: 1 million GP or 1 million dollars? Since the former translates to losing 100 million bucks.

hmm which ever is more valueable.

The 1 million GP, obviously, since 100 million is more than 1 million.
The wheel spins round and round. If Jack is going to try anything, now would be the time.

Well....I suppose the altering events thing my warlock did would be worth a shot, then again you said they be able to detect it..or they "could" not would. So I guess that...go for it.

Jack calls upon the winds of fate to blow subtly, but for a big effect. The ball spins and spns, the wheel moving at FTL so even Jack can't see it moving. The ball hovers above 30 Red... and as if the hand of fate was striking, makes it fall to 11 Black. "Black. Winner." Jack has doubled his stake.

"You do that at the cashing place, sah.", the table manager says.

"Well, then Ill do so then," He'll turn his nose up and act like a snooty asshole, once out of earshot or sight he'll chuckle to himself, then cash out. Then he'll go find Evan.

The lady at the checkout stand hands Jack 2 million in 100 gil denominations. Jack begins to head over to the brothel.

Once he gets there he'll speak with the hostess, and inquire about Evan's where abouts.

Jack will sniff the air...."The magi...." he sniffs again "Where is he...." Jack will grin as evilly as he can. I have a message I need to deliever to him in person...Jack will sniff the air again..."Oh my..and I think I'll have what he's drinking as well..." he grins again...."How many girls do you have working here today?"

Jack grins "Well I'd certainly hope so. Whats your going rate if you don't mind me asking...I was thinking of giving a few of your ladies the day off" He'll plop down half his winnings 500,000gp's in front of her "But I still do want to make one of them work of course..."

"100 GP per, and as I am sure you can calculate that is expensive. And I cannot take this quantity of money."
