Controversial rapper 6ix9ine, real name Daniel Hernandez, is currently serving three months in prison for violating the terms of his supervised release. Crypto gambling site Rainbet, for which the 29-year-old is an ambassador, posted a video of the New York City native playing a $50,000 hand of blackjack from behind bars:
The video starts with an automated message saying that the call is from a federal prison. The two people appear to be in the back of a jewelry store. They talk to 6ix9ine about $50,000 that’s owed to them for a piece that’s being made. They decide to put the $50,000 on one hand of blackjack through the rapper’s Rainbet account.

The odds looked stacked against 6ix9ine as he had a 13 against the dealer’s 10. However, their luck was in, as the dealer went bust, leading to a $50,000 profit on the hand.
6ix9ine has posted other videos from prison playing on the gambling site. In January, he said he paid $10,000 to get a phone into his cell and he proceeded to stake $15,000 on a hand of blackjack:
Rainbet now has several notable personalities on board representing the brand, including Adin Ross, Ryan Garcia, and Cuffem.
