Maybe he was too nervous and didnt listen to the instructions of the game carefully. He mightve thought higher/lower was based on the original card being higher/lower than the next one rather than higher/lower being based on the next cards relation to the original card. When he said lower he mightve been thinking zero has to be lower than the next card they’d pull.
Hey...hey...hey now I take huge offense to being called a Fakers fan. Especially one that dumb. No other organization I hate more in sports. I rather watch gsw win 20 rings in a row than the Lakers win another ever.
