Chapter 56

This gambling method is very simple. For the shuffled cards laid out on the table, each person draws three cards. There's no need to follow any order; they can draw randomly. In the end, the one with the highest total points wins. However, Tang Yu has the ability to see through cards, so the back of the cards is as clear to him as the front.

Yao Wenlong drew a heart 3 first, placed it in front of him, and looked at Tang Yu with a cold smile, gesturing for him to go. Tang Yu chuckled and drew a heart 4. Yao Wenlong drew his second card, and he was really having a bad day, drawing a diamond 4. He smiled sarcastically, unaware that he would lose badly. Tang Yu didn't hesitate and drew a heart 10. To be safe, no one knew what his last card would be. Yao Wenlong drew his last card, which was still not high, a spade 6. Tang Yu calculated that his three cards added up to 13, and his current total was already higher than Yao Wenlong's, so there was no need to draw a higher card. He casually drew a club 3.

"Please place your bets, gentlemen." The dealer extended her slender arm. After drawing the cards, the next step was to place the bets.

"You're a pauper, and I won't bully the weak. You decide how much to bet, but don't bet in small amounts like a few dollars!" Yao Wenlong said sarcastically.

"Let's do it this way, hold on a moment." Tang Yu turned to Xia Shihan and Zhang Jing: "Girls, how much money do you have on you?"

"Ah..." Xia Shihan looked at Tang Yu in surprise, thinking, "You have no money to bet with!" But since Tang Yu was already in the game, she had to help him. Xia Shihan thought to herself, "Really, I didn't expect to use my money to help Tang Yu gamble. If Dad finds out, he'll definitely criticize me." She took out her pink wallet and handed 500 yuan to Tang Yu. This was the money she brought from home to buy things today, but she didn't expect to use it to pay for Tang Yu's gambling. "I, I only have 500."

"I have 300." Zhang Jing also handed 300 yuan to Tang Yu.

"Ha ha ha... What a pauper, asking your girlfriend for money to gamble, how embarrassing! I don't even want to play with you!" Yao Wenlong sneered.

The dealer also looked surprised, but this didn't violate the rules.

"Boss, why are you asking them? I have money, don't I?" Guo Xiaodong looked at Tang Yu curiously.

Tang Yu took the 800 yuan from Xia Shihan and Zhang Jing. Thinking that he would win anyway, he might as well win more and give the girls some extra pocket money. "Xiaodong, give me all your 100,000 yuan."

"Ah! Boss, you want to bet it all at once?" Guo Xiaodong was shocked. Although he had given Tang Yu 100,000 yuan to practice, he didn't want to lose it all at once. Wouldn't it be better to play a few more rounds?

"It's fine." Tang Yu smiled and took the bag from Guo Xiaodong, placing it on the table and taking out 100,000 yuan in cash.

"Wow, you have some money. How much in total, 100,800, right? Alright, I'll match 110,000!" Yao Wenlong didn't expect Tang Yu to have 100,000 yuan. He had already exchanged his money for chips and scattered 110,000 worth of chips in the middle of the table.

"Gentlemen, wait a moment. According to the rules, we need to verify the authenticity of the cash before placing the bet." The dealer looked at Tang Yu. Yao Wenlong used chips, but Tang Yu used cash, which needed to be verified according to the rules.

"No problem, go ahead and verify it." Tang Yu naturally trusted that the money Guo Xiaodong brought wouldn't be fake.

"Forget it, 100,000, who cares, no need to check! Let's reveal the cards!" Yao Wenlong looked disdainful, making people want to punch him.

The dealer nodded. Since the other party agreed, if it was fake, it would count as his. "Alright, please reveal your cards, gentlemen."

Yao Wenlong glared at Tang Yu and revealed his three cards. This game relied entirely on luck, so there was no skill involved. When he saw his total was 13, his heart tightened.

Tang Yu's cards were still unrevealed. At this moment, Guo Xiaodong, Zhao Ling, Zhang Jing, and even Xia Shihan were holding their breath, their palms sweating.

Tang Yu, however, looked relaxed. He flicked his hand, revealing his three cards, which had a clear advantage over Yao Wenlong's.

"Damn!" Yao Wenlong cursed.

"This gentleman wins!" The dealer smiled and indicated to Tang Yu. Tang Yu nodded and pushed the chips to his side.

"Boss, you're amazing!" Guo Xiaodong was extremely excited.

"Shihan, Tang Yu won, wow, he won over 100,000 yuan!" Zhang Jing was also very excited.

Xia Shihan was also overjoyed. Although she knew gambling was wrong, she had completely forgotten about it, feeling very happy to see Tang Yu win so much money.

Tang Yu, however, wasn't overly excited. If he were to be happy, it would be because gambling was so easy; in a blink, he had won over 100,000 yuan, enough for an ordinary person to work for several years. But Tang Yu knew that in gambling, nine out of ten times, one loses, a timeless truth. He could win because of his special ability.

Tang Yu glanced coldly at the furious Yao Wenlong: "Do you want to continue? If not, I'm leaving."

"Continue!" Yao Wenlong refused to give up. He didn't believe he would keep losing, especially to a novice.

"But this time, we'll change the method. We'll look at the cards first, then place the bets!" Yao Wenlong glared at Tang Yu angrily.

The previous method was to draw the cards first, place the bets, and then reveal the cards, which relied entirely on luck. The one who drew the better cards won. But now, the method had changed. They would look at the cards first and then place the bets, which was a significant challenge for a novice because experienced gamblers could intimidate you with their presence.

"Boss, let's not do this." Guo Xiaodong knew the disadvantage of this method for Tang Yu and quickly advised against it.

"Alright, I'll play with you. Deal the cards." Tang Yu said with a cold smile.

The dealer threw the used deck into a locked trash bin. In the casino, a deck of cards is only used once.

She took out a new deck, shuffled it several times, and dealt the cards. The rules had changed, so the dealing method also changed. Previously, the cards were laid out on the table, and both sides could choose three cards. Now, the dealer dealt the cards. Previously, Yao Wenlong drew the cards first, but now, the cards were dealt to Tang Yu first.

Each person received three cards.

Tang Yu used his ability to see through the cards. He had a club 5, a diamond 9, and a heart 10. He also checked Yao Wenlong's cards and was relieved to see that Yao Wenlong's total was only one point less than his: a heart 7, a club 7, and a diamond 9.

After looking at his cards, Yao Wenlong was unsure but noticed that Tang Yu hadn't revealed his cards. "Why aren't you looking at your cards?"

"Not looking at the cards doesn't violate the rules." Tang Yu said with a cold smile.

"Alright, let's see how you die! 50,000!"

"I'll match." Tang Yu took 50,000 yuan in chips.

"Add another 50,000 to see your cards."

"I'll add another 50,000."

"Huh?" Yao Wenlong was stunned. He didn't look at his cards and was so bold?

At this moment, Guo Xiaodong, Xia Shihan, and the others were also worried for Tang Yu. They had won over 100,000 yuan with great effort and didn't want to lose it all.

"I have 100,000 left, I'll bet it all to see your cards!" Yao Wenlong sneered.

"I'll match. Let's reveal the cards!" Tang Yu smiled.

"You..." Yao Wenlong was even more surprised that Tang Yu would bet it all. Now, it would come down to who had the higher total.
