Kevin Hart Upset He Can’t Get a Black Hand for ‘Tonight Show’ ‘Slapjack’ (Video)

Blackjack variation sees “The Wedding Ringer” star and Jimmy Fallon trading slaps with giant prosthetic hands

Things got weird on “The Tonight Show” Thursday night with Kevin Hart, but that’s nothing new these days. Jimmy Fallon sat down with “The Wedding Ringer” star for a high-stakes game of Blackjack … with a twist. Or make that a slap.

They each wore an enormous prosthetic hand for this variation of the classic game dubbed “Slapjack.” Now, losing a round comes with a high price to pay. The winner gets to haul off and slap the loser with that giant hand.

But before the game could even begin, Hart had a problem.

“I’m just a little pissed off that I couldn’t get a black hand,” he said, looking at his giant white hand. “I don’t understand. I don’t know. This is Martin Luther King weekend. You couldn’t get me a black hand on Martin Luther King weekend?”

Hart and Fallon had a lot of fun building the tension throughout the game, with Hart breaking it from time to time with a joke.

At one point he was trying to decide if he should stop at 17 or not. “They call 17 the mother-in-law,” Hart explained to Fallon. “Because you want to hit it, but sometimes you can’t.”

He should have, though, as he got beat in that round. After two rounds, each of them had taken a wallop from the other and the game was tied going into one final round.
