America 1919

Boss, your idea is just too brilliant. Although other casinos have had their own blacklists before, they often treat those on the blacklist brutally, which can easily provoke some people's rebellious psychology. As a result, those on the blacklist come up with other methods to win money at the casinos.

But now you've given these people such great respect, and they will definitely feel it. At that time, I think situations like the one at Surf Hotel will definitely be very rare! Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire

Lival McKee had already completely identified himself as a Surf Hotel employee!

Professional gamblers, to put it nicely, are professionals, but to be frank, they're like rats crossing the street - persons of ability in gambling but often looked down upon by many.

Now Donnie has given these people respect, which naturally made them grateful.

"Why are very few, shouldn't it be none?" Ashuwebb couldn't help but ask.

Joshua Allen explained, "Mr. Webb, some people are always exceedingly greedy!"

Ashuwebb then realized he had asked a rather foolish question and chuckled awkwardly.

Nucky watched Ashuwebb's embarrassment, which contained no annoyance at all, and a bad premonition rose in his heart. Donnie's handling of this matter was just too perfect.

This would make the directors trust Donnie even more with the management rights of Surf Hotel, and it would mean losing more opportunities for himself.

Thinking this, Nucky couldn't help but say, "Even so, I believe whether it's Joshua or Lival, the people they know are limited. No one knows how many expert gamblers there might be in other places. If other people don't receive our invitation, might they think we don't respect them and insist on causing trouble at Surf Hotel? That would be even more troublesome!"

Donnie, facing Nucky's challenge, wasn't annoyed at all, only smiled, "Mr. Nucky makes a good point, which is why I have other plans!"

Nucky was stunned for a moment. He had just tried to suppress Donnie's arrogance but hadn't expected Donnie to have additional plans. If that were the case...

Looking at the expectant eyes of the others, Nucky wanted to slap himself!

"Donnie, what other plans do you have?" Saskamaggio asked curiously. Although he was just a puppet of City Hall in Surf Hotel, since he sat in this position, he had many thoughts about the development of Surf Hotel.

It's just that he found his ideas were either already implemented by Donnie or, when he actually looked at the management of Surf Hotel, realized how naive they were.

He had thought about the problem just raised by Nucky and found he had no solution at all!

Donnie laughed, "It's simple, what professional gamblers care about most is winning money..."

Saying this, Donnie looked at Lival McKee and Drake Watt and said, "Otherwise, Lival and Drake would not have traveled all the way from California to Atlantic City!"

Lival McKee and Drake Watt chuckled awkwardly.

Donnie gestured for them not to mind and continued, "I've also heard from Joshua that as professional gamblers, they don't really have any social status at present, and it's not easy for them to win money. So, if we can give them an opportunity to become famous and make a lot of money, I think even those professional gamblers unknown to us will show up!"

The people in the room looked puzzled, not understanding Donnie's meaning, except for Nucky, who guessed some of it, his expression changed from surprise to resignation.

Donnie continued, "So, I want to hold a national Gambling Techniques contest in the name of Surf Hotel, spread the news through the media, and like Miss America or UFC, have it broadcast live by ABC. By that time, many professional gamblers will step into the limelight.

Not only that, we should set up a unique title for the final winner... Yes, let's call it the God of Gamblers!"

"Additionally, we will set up prize money that could tempt anyone... let's say 1 million US dollars.

When fame and fortune are both on offer, I believe no one will be able to resist!"

Of course!

Nucky, hearing Donnie's description, knew he had just guessed Donnie's thoughts correctly. What was going on in this man's head? Any crisis could become an opportunity for him to grow stronger!

God of Gamblers!

Ha, it seems no gambler could resist such an illustrious title, not to mention the staggering 1 million US dollar prize money behind it.

By then, gamblers from every corner will come out, and every gambling expert in the country, one by one, will fall into Donnie's hands.

More importantly, this event is hosted by Surf Hotel. By that time, Surf Hotel will become a sacred place in the hearts of all gamblers across the country, much like the Vatican to believers!

Thinking this and looking at the flushed faces of Joshua Allen, Lival McKee, and Drake Watt from excitement, Nucky knew his analysis was spot on!

"One million?" Ashuwebb was taken aback, then said somewhat painfully, "Isn't that too much? If we add the cost of holding such an event, won't we need 2 million US dollars to cover it all?"
