"Play Blackjack" to play casino, play life
Gaylord 2022-04-22 07:01:05
"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, only this moment is important" I have seen this sentence many times in different Hollywood films. It is nothing more than to tell us a life truth to strive to live in the moment. The film "Always Remember to Consider Changes in Variables" tells us that the world is changing rapidly. Life cannot be repeated. The past is an experience, a valuable asset on the road of life, and it is also history; and tomorrow is unpredictable and fickle; only today is what we can grasp, and we should grasp it well.

[Jill tells Ben a little history as to how she learned to play Blackjack]
Jill Taylor: Every night after dinner, my father and I would play. I knew basic strategy before I was, like, nine years old. If I won, he'd take me out for ice cream.
Ben Campbell: And what if he won?
Jill Taylor: [Jill smiles] He'd still take me out for ice cream.
Ben Campbell: [Ben chuckles] Oh, yeah. Sure, yeah, he's your dad.

[Ben talks about how he learns to count cards]
Ben Campbell: [narrating] Plus 16. Sweet 16. Every card had a value. A high card, minus one. A low card, plus one. The rest, zero. I was studying all day, every day. But it wasn't physics, chemistry and engineering. I was back to simple math, used in ways I could never have imagined. The team had a system. And to go unnoticed, we created a whole new language. Words were numbers, and numbers were words.
