Winnifred Opal Next made herself comfortable at a blackjack table. She seemed to be alone at the table, which suited her perfectly fine. This was a game that didn't really need anyone besides you and the dealer anyhow.

"Deal."

The dealer dealt. Winnifred wondered how the people here could work here...and seem so normal. They didn't seem totally normal, of course, but they didn't seem too strange. Though... strange was relative in today's world, wasn't it?

Shaking her head in something close to wonder Winnifred took a moment to look at her cards, considering them. An ace and an eight? She glanced at the dealer's face up card.

"I'm good."

The dealer went bust and Winnifred had to hide her glee. "Nineteen," she said with a smirk. "My win."

She happily collected her ten coins, and then weighed her options.

"Hmm..." Winnifred eyed the dealer. Were they just playing with her? Making her comfortable before they took all her coins? She wouldn't' put it past them, even if they did seem mostly normal. She had seen how they ran things. They were buying and selling people, killing people, and worse...if rumors were true. (Winnifred didn't like to think about that last part.) She was willing to bet (ha!) that they were the type to run a shady house. Scamming the patrons. She was half surprised there wasn't a large amount of booze floating about the place making them all tipsy. Of course, she reasoned, shot nerves were probably throwing people off their games anyway. And it wasn't like anyone had a choice in whether or not they could actually leave.

Well. They were told they did. If they could afford it. Which was why she'd sat at this table at all. Maybe another hand? Or two?

"Deal me in."

Winnifred frown when she looked at her cards. A two and a Jack?

"Hit."

She gave the card a look and sighed. Another Jack. Damn!

"Bust," she sighed, tossing the cards back towards the dealer.

She was still up from where she'd been. Perhaps...she could try another hand?

"Again."

It was entirely possible that in her previous life (before the world ended) Winnifred Opal had dealt with a slight love for gambling. Not an addiction, mind you. But she liked it. It was fun. And something she did to relieve stress.

This was a very stressful situation.

Which meant this was probably a terrible idea.

But she didn't get up from the table as the dealer dealt her a new pair of cards.

Winnifred actually groaned. She hated getting 14. If you hit, you were likely going to bust. You'd need what? An ace through a 7 to make a good bet? The odds were slightly better...but only slightly.

Frowning, Winnifred threw caution to wind.

"Hit."
She was probably going to regret this.

A seven! Winnifred Opal had to take a second look just to be sure.

"Twenty-one!" Her triumph was clear on her face. Even though it was luck...or a sneaky dealer. (For which Winnifred would want to thank the dealer but that would probably be bad form and it was probably just luck anyway.)

I'll take those," she said, scooping her winnings towards her to add to her pile.

She'd won two out of three hands. Two out of three! That was great! She'd made 15 whole coins, which seemed like a lot. Winnifred chewed on her lip in consideration.

She could test her luck, try for more. Two of three hands was pretty good. How much worse could it be?

On the other hand...she now had enough that if she sold off one or two of these darned Kinder Surprise eggs... she'd be able to buy herself.

The collar suddenly felt very heavy around her neck.

Love of gambling or no, her life was on the line here. And that wasn't worth a hand of blackjack.

She nodded to the dealer. "If I get some more coins...I'll be back." With that, Winnifred Opal scooped up her winnings and headed off again.

[leaving while the leaving is good]
