Gambler 8 is not just about luck. The game actually sabotages your attempts to complete it.

\n\n

I've been trying for two consecutive days to get this done. And I've been able to get 21 after getting 5 cards three times.

\n\n

Thing is, every single time I manage to get 5 cards under 22, the gambler has a blackjack.

\n\n

It's already wildly unlikely that the gambler manages to get 21 right when you finally got it. For it to happen twice, it's almost the same odds of winning a goddamn lottery.

\n\n

Three times? No chance. Absolutely impossible. I did it three times and none counted because every single time the gambler had a blackjack that worked like a Deus ex-machina to stop me from completing the challenge.

\n\n

I'm positive the game does that on purpose, cause it seems to have happened to a lot of people. After the third time it happened, I turned RDR2 off and I don't plan on playing this game like ever again.

\n\n

Awesome game oc, but this terrible challenge will permanently keep me away from trying to beat it to 100%.

Since hitting is the X button and also the button you use to buy in when you lose all your money, download the remote play app, get a autotap app, open the autotap app and it'll have an overlay on where you want it, open the remote play app, overlay it to the X button and make it press X every 2 seconds and you're good to go.
