"Xiao Yu, your ideas are really unlucky!"
Just as Sun Jingjing was feeling indignant for Wang Yuming, the latter immediately turned around and pointed at her nose, cursing, "You son of a bitch! It's all your fault!"
"I told you, women shouldn't go to the gambling table when they have their period, but you just wouldn't believe me!"
"Do you believe me now?!"
"You damn slut! You smelly bitch!"
I originally thought that Sun Jingjing, as the beneficiary of this sugar daddy relationship funded by money, would not dare to talk back when Wang Yu cursed at her.
Unexpectedly, Sun Jingjing directly picked up her bag and stood up, pointing at Wang Yu and retorting fiercely, "Every time you lose money, you blame me! Wang Yu, are you ever going to stop?!"
"I'm a slut, a smelly bitch! But no matter how rotten and smelly my pussy is, there are plenty of people lining up to lick it for me!"
"Get lost! I'm not serving you anymore!"
With that, Sun Jingjing, her face contorted with anger, turned and left.
"Disappointed in love, triumphant in gambling!"
"Get lost, and don't delay me from turning my luck around, getting rich, and dominating the scene!"
Even after Sun Jingjing pulled the door shut and left, Wang Yu continued to curse incessantly.
In the end, this idiot even took the opportunity to glare at me fiercely, signaling me to shuffle and deal the cards.
Disappointed in love, yet still hoping for success in gambling?
Heh. Naive!
Hearing this, I sneered inwardly.
Turning my luck around and getting rich, huh? Dominating the scene!
Fine! I'll definitely help you turn your luck around! Just you wait!
I'll have the god of misfortune possess you immediately!
After collecting the money, I started to gather and shuffle the cards.
For a low-level game like this, there's no need for fancy cheating techniques. A perfect shuffle can directly disarm the enemy.
Moreover, to prevent Wang Yu from seeing the cards, I used the rapid deal of stacked cards.
The rapid deal of stacked cards is a pure sleight of hand, not considered cheating. Many gamblers and addicts are familiar with it.
After all, necessity is the mother of invention.
This move is specifically designed to deal with those who bring marked cards to the table, the old hands who aren't even considered beginner-level cheaters!
Whether the opponent uses magic decks or those marked with potions sold at long-distance bus stations, a rapid deal of stacked cards, unless specifically trained for, makes it impossible to see or remember the cards completely.
Of course, to prevent Wang Yu and the others from becoming suspicious, I slowed down the speed as much as possible while using the rapid deal of stacked cards.
Even so, Wang Yu was still bewildered and dizzy.
But to win money, he couldn't afford to care about that anymore. He'd see as much as he could, remember as much as he could.
This kind of behavior is often a sign that a gambler... is about to fall into the abyss!
Many people have this experience: they never play cards with outsiders, so why do they always lose more than they win?
Is it a matter of luck?
Clearly, it's not!
Luck can be good or bad, and it fluctuates, but it can't be consistently good or consistently bad.
Once in a card game you're in, if people are frequently winning money, then it's not a matter of luck, but... the people!
If you ask me how to avoid this situation, I can only tell you: the sea of gambling is boundless, turn back and you'll find the shore.
The best strategy is to withdraw in time and cut your losses!
Therefore, for card games initiated under the guise of acquaintances, brothers, if you can avoid them, please do. Especially those acquaintances you haven't seen in a long time!
Because you have no idea what their intentions are!
You might consider them family, but they might consider you a fool!
Nine out of ten gambling games are rigged!
They're rigged against all of you... who are so self-righteous!
...
Alright, back to the main topic.
Because several people lost money in the previous round, the tension at the table this round was noticeably more intense than before.
In this situation, I certainly couldn't keep dealing myself good cards.
If I did that, I would undoubtedly be drawing fire to myself.
So I resorted to my old trick, just like last time at the Baole Chess and Card Room, and started to divert the attention by dealing good cards to Xu Xiaobo.
I expected Wang Yu to lose miserably again this round.
Because earlier, Xu Xiaobo had been dragged down to the brink of death by Wang Yu and Zhou Xi using the underhanded tactic of "double ghosts striking the door."
So, in this round, I dealt Xu Xiaobo the biggest flush in the entire game.
As soon as the cards were dealt, Wang Yu suddenly spoke to me, "Xiangzi, dare to play a side game of Golden Flower with me?"
Side games of Golden Flower are very popular where we are.
It means that regardless of the stakes on the table, separate rules are agreed upon for bets made off the table.
Of course, if your hand is the biggest on the table, all the stakes on the table also belong to you.
Hearing this, I immediately understood that this idiot had changed his strategy again!
Wang Yu wasn't desperate from losing; it was because when I was using the rapid deal of stacked cards, he had only been staring at his own cards.
To make him experience the feeling of dramatic ups and downs again, in the previous round, I dealt him the second-best hand, a mixed straight, just below Xu Xiaobo's.
I had intended for them to tear each other apart, but inadvertently, the fire was drawn to myself.
And I couldn't refuse!
Because when someone proposes a side bet, they are usually driven by personal grudges and are unlikely to set any limits.
In other words, they bet as much money as they have on them!
So, to directly take Wang Yu down, facing his blatant provocation, I immediately responded, "Let's bet!"
As if afraid I would go back on my word, seeing me agree, Wang Yu quickly added, "I'm angry, but my wife left like this, and I can't just ignore it."
"So, I have to go chase her."
"How about this, let's just casually throw in some chips on the table between us for one round, and then we'll go straight to the side bet."
"All in, one hand! Just you and me, whoever has the bigger hand wins! What do you say?"
Hearing this, I didn't answer immediately. Instead, I lit a Hong Nanjing cigarette and put on a thoughtful expression.
If I had agreed immediately when Wang Yu spoke and then won money, it would have seemed too fake.
So I had to act, and I had to act with struggle and hesitation.
So that the outsiders would see that it wasn't me who wanted to bet with Wang Yu, but that he was forcing me into it!
After finishing the cigarette.
"All in... it seems unnecessary, doesn't it?"
That's what I said, but my cold and indifferent tone deeply provoked Wang Yu.
"Why are you pretending?! I know you're doing pretty well now, and you have some money in your pocket!"
"It's not like you can't afford to lose, so why are you putting on this act? All in or not? One sentence! Be quick about it!"
To be honest, the moment Wang Yu started insulting my mother, I felt like smashing his head with the ashtray on the table.
But in the end, I still held back.
Because I knew that doing so would bring temporary satisfaction but long-term suffering.
So, suppressing my anger, I calmly replied, "All in, huh? Fine! I accept!!"
"How much, you name it!"
