Chapter 72: All-In (Part 4)

"Each of you gets ten million chips, and the minimum bet is 100,000. Is that clear?" Duan Zhiheng asked.

"No problem!" "No problem!"

With the help of his eye ability, even the world-renowned gambler Liu Dong had absolute confidence in defeating his opponent, let alone Han Lei, who was just a mediocre player.

Seeing both men agree, Duan Zhiheng nodded and announced the start of the game. The crowd around them fell silent, focusing intently on the rare high-stakes game.

According to the rules of All-In, the first card dealt to each player is a hole card, and from the second card onwards, they are face-up.

"Mr. Han's card is the 10 of Spades, and Mr. Liu's is the 3 of Hearts. Mr. Han, it's your turn to speak!" Duan Zhiheng said calmly.

"Haha, I'll bet 200,000!" Han Lei secretly peeked at his hole card and couldn't help but smile as he took two chips from his stack and threw them to the center of the table.

"Since Mr. Han wants to play, I'll naturally accompany him. I call!" Liu Dong then also took two chips and threw them out.

Seeing his move, the crowd around them began to murmur.

"How can he call 200,000 without even looking at his hole card?"

"Yeah, yeah, does he even know how to play All-In? He didn't even look at his hole card and bet 200,000!"

"Hehe, maybe he just has too much money to burn!" ...

Listening to the slightly mocking comments, Wang Haitao couldn't help but frown. Although he hadn't known Liu Dong for long, Liu Dong's steady and calm demeanor had left a deep impression on him. He didn't believe that Liu Dong would recklessly bet 200,000 chips.

In fact, Wang Haitao was more optimistic about Liu Dong's chances in this game. Especially after seeing Liu Dong's nearly perfect record on the first floor, which was the source of his confidence. However, while he believed Liu Dong would win, he didn't want Liu Dong to actually win this game, as it would mean his plan to recruit Liu Dong into the Black Tiger Gang would fail.

Who would a millionaire willingly join a gang?

Liu Dong ignored the comments and focused on his own strategy. The third card was quickly dealt. Liu Dong received the 5 of Spades, while Han Lei got the King of Diamonds.

"Mr. Han is ahead. Mr. Han, it's your turn to speak!"

"Hehe, it seems my luck is much better than yours. I'll bet 500,000!" Han Lei's face was full of satisfaction.

Seeing his expression, Liu Dong smiled calmly, "Mr. Han is very confident. But my 5 of Spades isn't bad either. I'll call your 500,000!"

After hearing his words and seeing Liu Dong push the chips to the center of the table, Han Lei was momentarily stunned but then couldn't help but smile. He had been a bit worried that his bet was too high and might scare Liu Dong off, but he didn't expect Liu Dong to call his 500,000!

Liu Dong ignored the murmurs around him and turned to Duan Zhiheng, who had been standing by, "Dealer, shouldn't you deal the next card?"

Duan Zhiheng frowned. In all his years in the casino, he had never seen such a strange gambler. Not only did he not look at his hole card, but he also kept calling even when his cards were worse than his opponent's. No rational person would do that.

But no matter how he looked at it, this young man with an ordinary appearance but a composed demeanor didn't seem reckless. Moreover, he didn't believe that someone like Wang Haitao would be so simple. Despite his chaotic thoughts, Duan Zhiheng's hands didn't slow down. The fourth card was quickly dealt.

This time, Liu Dong received the 5 of Clubs, while Han Lei got the Jack of Diamonds.

Looking at his cards, Liu Dong smiled faintly, "It seems it's my turn to speak now!"

According to the rules of All-In, his two 5s formed a pair, while Han Lei's cards, though individually higher, were just a high card.

"Hmph!"

Hearing Han Lei's displeased hum, Liu Dong remained calm, grabbed a handful of chips, and threw them forward, "Let's go big this time, two million!"

Seeing his move, the crowd fell silent. This was the most exciting moment of the game, and no gambler wanted to miss the thrill of such a high-stakes game. This was the allure of gambling—uncertainty always draws people in.

At this moment, Han Lei's earlier confidence was gone, and he stared intently at Liu Dong, who appeared calm. Although he was a spoiled rich kid, he wasn't stupid. He wanted to figure out whether Liu Dong was truly confident or just bluffing.

What puzzled him was how Liu Dong could have such confidence without even looking at his hole card. With just a pair of 5s, he dared to bet two million.

In fact, not only was Han Lei puzzled, but the onlookers were also scratching their heads. They attributed Liu Dong's actions to sheer boldness, or perhaps irrational boldness. Although Liu Dong had a pair of 5s, the onlookers didn't think he would win this game.

"I call! Two million!" Han Lei said coldly.

As Han Lei's chips were thrown out, their last card was dealt by Duan Zhiheng.

"It seems my luck is good!" Liu Dong picked up his 5 of Hearts and waved it at Han Lei. With this 5, his hand now had three 5s. Although Han Lei also got a 10, forming a pair, his single pair was no match for Liu Dong's three of a kind.

Seeing his hand lag behind, Han Lei's face turned sour.

"Mr. Han, why don't we go all-in? It would be more straightforward!" Liu Dong put down his cards and stared at Han Lei's eyes, speaking casually.

Hearing this, Han Lei looked at him, frowned tightly, and couldn't make up his mind whether to go all-in as Liu Dong suggested.

"Two million!" Before Han Lei could respond, Liu Dong suddenly shouted and pushed two million chips to the center of the table.

Seeing this, Han Lei gritted his teeth, revealed his hole card, and slammed it on the table, shouting, "I call your two million! I want to see your hole card!"

"Heh, three 10s, a set of 10s is better than three 5s!"

"Right? Unless his hole card is a 5 or a 3, this round will probably be Mr. Han's win!"

"I think Mr. Han is sure to win. The probability of getting a four of a kind or a full house is so low!"

...

Hearing the comments, Han Lei's face became more confident, "Quick, reveal your hole card. Let's see who wins!"

Han Lei's confident expression froze as Liu Dong revealed his hole card. It was as if a noisy duck had its throat suddenly clamped, leaving it speechless.

Seeing his stunned expression, Liu Dong smiled faintly, "I'm sorry, this is a 3 of Clubs."

"Three 5s, two 3s, a full house!!!"

The crowd erupted in disbelief.

"Haha, Brother Liu's gambling skills are truly remarkable!"

Hearing Wang Haitao's praise, Liu Dong smiled calmly, "Brother Wang, you flatter me. I don't really know much about gambling. Winning this round was just luck!"
