Though her previous attempt at playing had ended with her falling unconscious, it was the only game Candice thought she knew well enough to try again. If it didn't work, she'd have no choice but to branch out. For now, she found an empty table and took her seat.

The dealer was smiling and generally friendly looking, but they had to know what was happening and were clearly okay with it. Unless they were also forced into it. All that mattered were coins right now, so she took her dealt cards. an Ace and an eight of clubs. Nine was too low, low enough that she wasn't likely to bust. Hopefully.

"Hit me.." she said, keeping her eyes away from the peppy dealer and on her cards. Why did she choose blackjack? It was too stressful. After a deep breath she reached for the card. A seven of hearts. Bad luck. That only put her at an eighteen. Drawing another would likely make her bust.

"I'm out." she said.

Candice couldn't win anything if she didn't try, so she stayed in her seat and nodded toward the dealer. She happily set about dealing the cards.

Candice moaned. A sixteen was terrible! She'd bust for sure, but she needed to try right? That is how you won, by actually gambling.

"Gahhh hit me!" she said leaning forward in her seat. She quickly looked at the card this time. A seven of diamonds. Her and sevens were bad. She had busted with a 23.

Candice was doing terrible. She needed these coins.

"Again." she said, set on beating the dealer at least once.

Nine again. She was getting little variation form that game. She'd have to take another card.

The dealer nodded and passed Candice another card. Ten of hearts. That actually put her pretty high. "I'll stay." she said, eyeing the dealer and flipping her cards over.

The dealer grinned and handed her ten coins.

She said a hesitant thanks and waited for another deal. She still had a long way to go and she wasn't earning coins very fast.

She checked her cards and stared in shock. She had a good hand already, she didn't even have to draw more cards. This was more like it.

"I'll be keeping this one." she said revealing her cards and earning another ten coins from the dealer.

"Okay, again." She said, adding up her coins in her head. She was still short, but a lot. She was impatient for freedom. If she wasn't stuck in prison, she was in a war zone or a cannibalistic casino.

How had she got 19 again! "Oh please let me keep this streak going!" she thought.

Candice nodded toward the dealer, who was still smiling, though now it looked more forced than before. She placed two more cards down.

Unfortunately she wasn't high enough and an eleven was risky, though as is netted her nothing.

"I'll take another." she motioned toward the deck. The dealer tossed a card out with practiced speed.

A nine of spades. It was high, but not too high. She splayed her cards out in front of her. "20" she said, grinning,

"Just need to keep going." she said aloud, mostly for own comfort. The dealer took that as an okay for another deal and placed Candice's two new cards down.

Eighteen wasn't good enough, and was risky to take any more cards with. "I'll drop this one..." She decided, pushing her cards forward.

"Let's forget that happened. Deal me in." She took a deep breath, like that would help with her luck, and checked her new hand. Fourteen was pretty bad, fairly high so that a bust was very likely, but not high enough to win.

"Just give me another.." She said. Candice would risk it. Bigger risk, bigger reward right?

Yeah, if you actually won. She shook it off though, she could pick up another winning streak.

"Okay" she sucked in a breath, "again." She was getting closer and it was making her antsy. She just wanted the collar off and the lingering chance of being dinner. Who was to say they'd honor their word and let you leave anyways. Oh, she hadn't thought of that....Two cards slid her way and broke her startling thoughts.

And eleven was good...
