Chapter 485 - Oh f*ck (1/2)

As they watched anxiously, Su Li and Shen Qingyan couldn’t help thinking that Xiao Luo was only pushing his luck and trying to gain a psychological edge against Leon. They remained silent and did not want to distract Xiao Luo in any way, so they just stood there and watched.

“Just what kind of gambling style is this?” Leon asked, staring at Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo laughed and said, “The kind of gambling style where you burn your bridge! We’ll decide this in a single round. If you’ve never tried this before, then I shall let you have a taste of it.”

Leon clenched his fists tightly. A hundred million was definitely something to him, especially since it was gambling. He would definitely not sleep in peace for a good three days and nights if he were to lose a hundred million just like this.

As he took another look at his face down card, he relaxed his clenched fists—it was a Two of Clubs. With a smile, he said, “Mr. Xiao, you are really daring. I’ll let you have this round. I shall not call.”

After he said that, he folded his cards.

The next round began, and the dealer gave each of them a face down card. For the second card, Leon had a Seven of Clubs while Xiao Luo had a King of Spades.

As Xiao Luo had the bigger face up card, the dealer raised his hand and said, “Mr. Xiao, you shall go first!”

“There’s no need to say anything else, all in,” Xiao Luo said. He once again pushed out the whole heap of gambling chips that were as tall as a mountain without any expression on his face.

What the f*ck!

The dealer and all the other staff in the room stared at Xiao Luo with their eyes opened wide. Just who in the world was this guy? Even the world’s richest man wouldn’t play like that. Only two cards had been dealt, and he was ready to throw money away so recklessly?

Leon was perplexed. The psychological warfare that he took pride in had suffered a considerable blow. Xiao Luo was not giving him any chance to show himself at all by forcing him to bet. He really wanted to go all out against Xiao Luo, but looking at his face down card, a three of diamonds, he realized it couldn’t get any smaller than that. There was no way he was bold enough to do this.

“I’ll let you have another round,” he said, reluctantly folding his cards again.

All the betting chips went to Xiao Luo, and the staff in the private room once again neatly stacked up all the gambling chips that Xiao Luo had.

The trend continued for the third, fourth, fifth, all the way up to the tenth round—Xiao Luo, without even bothering to look at his face down card, continued to push his entire pile of gambling chips out o the middle. His stacks of chips had grown even higher, and his mountain of cash ever more imposing. And he repeated the same move every time—he would always open the bet right after the second card had been dealt. Sometimes, Leon would not even have the time to properly look at his face down card before Xiao Luo made his bet.

Leon was furious, and he could barely take it anymore. But unfortunately for Leon, right through all these rounds, the value of his two cards had been lower than Xiao Luo’s, and he just couldn’t get a pair, so he ended up folding all his cards in successive rounds.

Frustrated, Leon laughed mockingly and said, “Mr. Xiao, are you trying to see who’s luckier here? Are you just not afraid that in the end, your cards will end up being smaller than mine?”

“If that’s the case, then why don’t you just call?” Xiao Luo retorted.

“I…”

Leon was stumped for words. All he felt was only frustration and depression. To think that he was a master gambler from North America, and yet here he was being treated roughshod by a nameless country bumpkin. It was simply too insulting.

Su Li and Shen Qingyan also realized what Xiao Luo’s aim was. Though it might be hard to believe, Xiao Luo had indeed completely thrown Leon right off his rhythm at the moment.

When it came to playing poker, gamblers were competing with both luck and courage!

After ten rounds, Leon had already lost ten million as he had to fold every single round.

The eleventh round began, and the dealer dealt out the cards. This time around, Xiao Luo once again pushed out his whole heap of gambling chips out as usual.

Leon looked at Xiao Luo’s card—he had an Ace. Leon had a Queen of Hearts and proceeded to peek at his face down card. It was a King of Hearts. Thankfully, his cards were much better—there was a chance for a flush here, and there was also a possibility that he might get a straight flush. This round, he chose to call. It was unacceptable that a nameless guy like Xiao Luo could get away with such arrogance.

RATTLE~

He pushed out the entire heap of gambling chips in front of him. This time around, he was found his confidence back, and it felt satisfying.

“Looks like we’ll decide the winner in this round!” Leon roared.

“Sure, but I have a hundred and ten million. You’re still short of a bit there,” Xiao Luo reminded him.

“You think you have that much more than me?”

Leon handed his black card to his subordinate and said, “Go now. Go and exchange another two hundred million.”
