Flip It

Carlos stared at the dealer. His eyes were bloodshot after 743 consecutive games of Blackjack.

"It's all come down to this one card, everything will change now, there is no turning back... Flip it Sancho."

"Are you sure Senor? You can just walk away... "

"Flip it."

Trembling Sancho replied... "But Senor, this is unheard of. Dios mio I beg you!"

"Flip that fucking card Sancho!"

Sancho made the sign of the cross then flipped the card. It was the 3 of Spades. No more goats would be slaughtered that day.
