The true tension occurs when the player turns the card sideways; if they see exactly two pips ("two legs"), the card is a 4 or 5.
+Why the Casino Allows Card Destruction +
Because a player squeezing a card leaves a permanent crease, that specific deck of cards can absolutely never be used again to prevent cheating.
+
The casino gladly sacrifices the cardboard to keep the VIPs perfectly happy, deeply engaged, and continuously betting massive fortunes.
