Since Boss Du has made his intentions clear, I’m curious to see what you’re made of! Corey said this through clenched teeth.
In a game involving multiple players, he could choose to reveal only Du Hengyan's cards. However, doing so would mean exposing his own cards to everyone as well. At this moment, Corey felt a surge of conflict within himself. He knew that the value of the cards in his hand was quite average, with nothing particularly special about them. After a moment of deep thought, he finally managed to squeeze out the words to reveal the cards.
Meanwhile, Du Hengyan casually spoke up, "Boring."
Despite appearing calm on the surface, Chi Mu Jiu keenly sensed his intentions. The reason Du Hengyan deliberately allowed Corey to reveal his cards was to ensure that the game between Chi Mu Jiu and Le Lis could continue without worrying about Corey's interference. If Du Hengyan did not confront Corey directly, there was a high chance that Corey would simply fold in the next round.
With too many players at the table, if they couldn't reduce the number of participants, the game would become exceedingly chaotic. Thus, Du Hengyan needed to find a way to make others drop out so he could better control the situation. This was also one of the main reasons he had joined the game.
At this moment, the dealers began to flip over the cards for both players one by one. Chi Mu Jiu didn’t need to look at Du Hengyan's cards; she already knew that he would undoubtedly win this round by a narrow margin.
The dealer's voice rang out clearly: "Mr. Corey, you hold three hearts and one diamond; the diamond does not count, so your total is..."
"Boss Du has one spade, a pair of hearts, and one diamond. Since the spade's value is doubled, your base bet must be doubled as well; your final total is..."
As the other three players observed the revealed cards, the expressions of the two who had folded visibly relaxed. Clearly, they were relieved that their earlier decision to fold had proven wise. Otherwise, with their poor hands, they would likely have found themselves in an even worse predicament.
Just because of a small point difference, Corey lost billions and even forfeited his own assets, which was truly a case of losing more than he gained. However, at the gambling table, there is no room for regret. The moment the bets were placed, the night’s game was destined to unleash a storm of blood and chaos.
A slight advantage.
Du Hengyan’s lips curled into a faint smile, but the curve of that smile was difficult to decipher.
The middle-aged man behind Corey couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for him.
“Mr. Corey, in the first round of the game, due to the difference in your and Boss Du’s stakes, according to the rules, you will need to match Boss Du’s stake.” The dealer's voice was sweet and clear, but to Corey at that moment, it sounded like a piercing siren.
Du Hengyan’s hand was slightly stronger than his!
Just that little bit!
And yet, that little bit not only cost him billions but also won Du Hengyan one of his toxic islands.
Corey gritted his teeth in frustration.
But failure had become a foregone conclusion; how could he shamelessly try to backtrack? Gambling is a cruel game where losers must silently accept reality.
Reluctantly, he completed the transaction on the holographic screen, and immediately after, Du Hengyan’s information was updated.
Beautiful! In her heart, Jiu was already waving flags for Du Hengyan!
After this round, she had gained some understanding of Du Hengyan’s card skills.
His strategy was simple and brutal: bet on the cards; if not, call; he showed no fear of losing, as if he had endless wealth to squander.
This psychological tactic and powerful aura put immense pressure on his opponents; whether they had good cards or not, ordinary players would find themselves firmly under his control.
Some people are unafraid of losing, while others cannot bear to lose.
“Mr. Corey seems to have made quite a bit of money over the years! I’ve always thought that your drug trade is easier than our organ trafficking—it’s not as bloody and cruel. Hahaha!”
Tan Lin looked at Corey’s pale face and teased him with a laugh. Although Tan Lin had been invited by Corey, he hadn’t made it clear that he would definitely side with him.
