C1506 A tit-for-tat gamble

Zhou Hao was now the same as Mr Cao, both being 19: 30. If Zhou Hao did not continue calling out names, he would lose money, and if the cards were broken, he would lose an extra hundred thousand. Everyone wanted to see what Zhou Hao's last card would be.

Zhou Hao didn't feel nervous at all. After many experiments, he believed that his premonition was very accurate, that the cards this time around still weren't dangerous, no matter if it was a little bit or not, as long as it wasn't broken, he could defeat Mr Cao in this round, and avoid him clamoring.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Hao's card table, and very quickly the last card was revealed. It was a Q for a peach, this card had never appeared before, but at this critical moment, it directly broke the advantage that the Mr Cao had. Zhou Hao, 20 points, Mr Cao, 19: 30 points.

"I'm sorry Mr Cao, but my luck is still better than yours by a little, just that it's slightly better than yours, but this time, I won." After Zhou Hao obtained twenty points, he looked at Mr Cao in embarrassment and said apologetically.

Everyone knew that it was impossible for Zhou Hao to truly feel apologetic, or else they would just admit defeat. It was obvious that he was angry at the Mr Cao, but everyone could see clearly that Zhou Hao did not have any cheating actions under everyone's gazes. This was entirely luck, losing to a lucky opponent on the gambling table was something no one could do.

Mr Li and Mr Zhu sighed at the side. This young man's luck was too good, to be able to win in such a competition, and Ms Zhang was looking at Zhou Hao with a hint of something else in his eyes. Most people did not notice, but Mr Cao, who was paying attention to her, did.

Originally, he had lost the bet, but Zhou Hao intentionally angered him, so that he could accept it. At most, he would clench his teeth and see the results clearly.

"But it's only eight hundred thousand yuan. I can still afford to lose. Let's have another round. Let's see who's going to win this time. I don't know if you still have enough luck." Mr Cao sneered, and threw his next chip onto the gambling table. At this time, everyone could tell that he was fighting with Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao shrugged his shoulders and did not say anything, but he had already thrown all five hundred thousand gold coins into the gambling stake. In the previous two games, Zhou Hao had already won over three million and five hundred thousand gold coins was nothing to him, even if he lost a few rounds in a row, it would not harm his fundamentals, not to mention losing money was not that easy.

The Mr Li and Mr Zhu looked at each other and saw that the situation was bad. The two of them felt that it was not appropriate to interfere, the key thing was that they did not feel that it was good to leave as well, and it hurt their face a little. In the end, they sighed inwardly at the misfortune they had encountered, and played another round, where the two of them threw in five hundred thousand.

Actually, from the very beginning, Zhou Hao could tell that the four of them were familiar with each other. The reason why they kept playing here was more like playing a game than a competition, and most likely, they weren't the kind of people who had extremely strong gambling skills. They focused more on participating, but because he had joined, the situation had changed a bit.

Although she had lost eight hundred thousand in one go, she had been winning the entire time in the first few rounds, so losing wouldn't have much of an impact. It was as if she had not noticed that and Mr Cao were opposing each other at all.

The dealer could only watch the fun, he could see what everyone was thinking, but he did not say anything more, the Ms Zhang had already started, he started dealing cards, starting from the Ms Zhang, each person had two cards, very quickly their first cards were already placed in front of everyone.

At least she called out the third card, so there was definitely no pressure. The following luck was better, with one and a half flower card and one red peach six, this kind of number could let him call out the fourth card without taking too much risk, causing him to immediately smile brightly.

It was a total of nine and a half minutes, which was about the same as Ms Zhang's. Mr Li's luck seemed to have never been very good, the first two cards ended in failure, and this time, the situation was not looking good either, to actually get twenty, unless the third card was a half minute, he could only wait for everyone to finish.

When he got the cards, he was already wailing, "The heavens want me dead! What kind of cards are these, and why are you not letting me play with them? There are so many cards, and why am I getting 20 directly? How am I going to play with them later on? This is too preposterous."

One was a spade, one was a flower card, and the other two were only 1: 30. Although they didn't have their previous complacency and arrogance, they still happily teased Old Li: "Old Li, such a card is very mighty, as long as our points are not as high as yours or we just break it, then that's when you win, we will save you money and wait for you to compare directly, that's great ah!" "Haha!"

Mr Li glared at him, and said angrily: "Stop being sarcastic, when you get all the cards in a while, cry yourself to death, and forget how you lost previously, when the time comes you will not even have 20 points, and I will win you to death."

If it was before, Mr Cao would definitely ridicule him, but after losing to Zhou Hao in that hand, he felt extremely humiliated. After being provoked by the Mr Li for a while, his face immediately became gloomy and he did not say a word, only flashing his gaze, revealing the scheme in his mind.

Mr Cao's expression let him know that he said the wrong thing, but he was also furious at Mr Cao for taking joy in his misfortune, his points were more than enough to make anyone sad, this five hundred thousand was equivalent to throwing it away, after all, 20 points was considered a big deal at this kind of gambling table, but he only had two cards up, the difference was too big.

After everyone handed out their cards, the staff member asked as usual: "Everyone, look after your hand and calculate your points. Next, a new round of calling out for a card. Ms Zhang, do you want a card?"

Ms Zhang nodded her head and threw a hundred thousand points inside, laughing: "With my points, if you don't want a card, why are you playing with 21 points? Give me one."

One of them appeared in the pile of cards belonging to the Ms Zhang. The sum of the three cards had turned into twelve, which was already considered not bad, unless she could get ten, she would not have to worry about her fourth card. Since the Mr Li had already gotten two or ten, the other two cards should not be so coincidentally giving one to her.

Mr Zhu's points were even smaller, of course he didn't hesitate to throw in a hundred thousand, but in the end he exchanged for a piece of 10, and the points immediately went from 6: 30 to 16: 30, and his fourth card still required a bit of courage. Mr Zhu shook his head helplessly: "My luck today wasn't that good, what's wrong with this, the third card pushed me up the cliff, how can I play after that."

After Mr Li heard his words, he smiled bitterly and comforted him: "Old Zhu, be content with what you have, at least you're better than me. I already have 20 points, with only one card left, I am still hesitating to call for more.

Old Zhu sympathetically and understandingly nodded his head. He wouldn't give a random advice on the wager table, so he could only use the look of 'we're all in the same world' to comfort and exhort each other.

While the two of them were chatting, Zhou Hao had already called for the third card. The points for the first two cards were 9: 30, and like this, the third card obtained one piece two, his total points becoming 11: 30. Other than Mr Cao, it was also the smallest number of points he had, and the fourth card would not get ten, so it was impossible for him to break it.

Now that he had gotten more than one point of cards, his card would be broken. But if he did not call out for a card, with just twenty points of two cards, the chances of him winning was actually not high, and as long as there was someone who could win more than twenty points, the chances of him winning was not small at all.

Everyone did not say anything, seeing that the Mr Li had decided on his own, the Mr Li hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and said: "Those who starve to death are cowards, those who live up to their words are only 100,000 yuan, I can still afford to lose, give me another card, I do not believe that my luck will always be this bad." As he spoke, he threw in a hundred thousand yuan.

Everyone felt that Mr Li was the most handsome, at least he had guts, and as for whether or not he was lucky, it all depended on this card. The dealer card, under everyone's expectation, fell on his card, giving him a 'Peach Blossom' that helped him greatly in laying down Old Li's status as the biggest card in the game.

"Wahaha, I already said that my luck couldn't last forever, and now the time has finally come for me. Everyone, work hard, if you can't reach 21 o'clock, then I will accept this round. It seems like my luck is here, you all can't stop it no matter what you want, Old Cao, do your best!"2

Everyone was also very surprised that they were unstoppable due to Old Li's luck. Although it was still 21 points out of 3 cards, there was a 50% chance that he would win the competition, unless other people also received 21 points, only then would they be able to win against him. Furthermore, when he mentioned Mr Cao, he was clearly showing off a little.

Mr Cao snorted: "Old Li, don't get too ahead of yourself. I might still be able to beat you, I only need to get 19: 30, that's all. Just 3 cards, you just need to wait for me to kill you."

"Oh, Old Cao, you speak quite easily. 19: 30 am, there is only one 10 now. I want to see how you can get that 10. I don't believe that when my luck is good, you can have that kind of luck." Old Li grunted in disagreement.

"Then we'll just wait and see. Let's see if I can take care of you. Old Li, there are many times when things happen by hand, don't you think so?" Mr Cao laughed deeply and said with confidence.
