I know from experience that for many players in casinos, the main problem is the payout, or rather the difficulty with them. So I think that you should certainly try to solve this problem and it is solved quite easily if https://casinosters.com/best-payout-online-casinos/ look at the list of casinos that are just making fast payments to the player of his winnings. Because there are now a lot of casinos where the payout is very delayed, but this is not the case. So you should read this list."

34 = (35n + 28)/(n + 1)
34n + 34 = 35n + 28
6 = n
So the team played n + 1 = 7 games.
