Chapter 446: Chapter 446: Add a Bet of Five Hundred ThousandTexas holdâem, originating from Beihai Country, is a globally popular poker game.
Poker requires at least 2 players at a table and can accommodate up to 22, similar to Haogangâs "SuoHa" but even more fun and thrilling!
Because in Texas holdâem, a total of seven cards are dealt, two more than in SuoHa, and one more hidden card. This increases the unpredictability of the game, making the outcome even more mysterious and difficult to guess the opponentâs hand.
Ye Xuan and Jia Mingliang were naturally clear about the rules of Texas holdâem. As soon as the chips hit the table, they started the duel.
The first round.
The croupier began dealing the cards.
The first two cards were hole cards, covered on the table, visible only to the cardholder. They wouldnât be revealed until the showdown!
Ye Xuan lifted a corner of his hole cards, quickly glanced at them, and saw they were the club nine and diamond five.
Then, Ye Xuan activated his x-ray vision and discovered Jia Mingliangâs hole cards, which were the heart king and spade queen, better than his.
Jia Mingliangâs hands firmly covered his hole cards while he looked at Ye Xuan and sneered coldly.
However, he was completely unaware that Ye Xuan had already clearly seen his cards!
The croupier dealt the cards again.
The next three cards Ye Xuan received were the spade five, heart three, and club jack.
These werenât hole cards anymore. Jia Mingliangâs cards were laid out on the table, revealing a heart queen, diamond ten, and club jack.
From the current situation, it was clear that Jia Mingliang had the stronger hand as he could make a pair of queensâan impressive pair! Although Ye Xuan also had a pair, it was only a pair of fives, significantly smaller than his opponentâs.
"Iâll raise fifty thousand!"
Jia Mingliang smiled slightly, satisfied with his hand and raised by fifty thousand directly.
He wanted to raise more, but feared scaring Ye Xuan away. If Ye Xuan folded, he wouldnât be able to win any money.
However, Ye Xuan had seen through the game from the moment he received his hole cards. He knew he wouldnât win and continued to the second round only as a distraction.
When Jia Mingliang announced the fifty thousand raise, Ye Xuan indeed folded!
In the first round, Ye Xuan lost twenty thousand in chips.
During the next three rounds, Ye Xuan was unlucky, consistently receiving weaker hands than Jia Mingliang and promptly folding them.
It wasnât his fault; rather, Jia Mingliang was just too lucky, consistently drawing strong cards while Ye Xuan always got the weaker ones, forcing him to fold.
"Gosh, this kid is too timid! He folds every time in the second round; why canât he hold out until the end?"
"They thought it would be a fierce battle! But it turned out to be a one-sided game, suppressed and dominated. This game is just too boring!"
"Remember, Jia Mingliang is known as the âLittle Gambling King of Jianghai.â No one can beat him at the gambling table. Looking at it now, itâs definitely a show of overwhelming strength!"
"Ha ha, with this kidâs temperament, and he said he would leave Jia Mingliang penniless, I see heâs almost the one losing his pants!"
"Daring to challenge the Little Gambling King of Jianghai is downright suicide! Long live the mighty Gambling King..."
"Acting tough but screwing himself over..."
The crowd in the hall, watching the live broadcast on the big screen, saw clearly what was happening inside the third floorâs casino.
They felt humiliated by Ye Xuanâs timid folding and scoffed continuously, convinced that Ye Xuan had surely lost this Texas holdâem duel.
Inside the casino.
At that moment, Jia Mingliang was extremely frustrated. Every time he drew good cards, wanting to decisively defeat his opponent for a big win,
however, that guy was slippery like an eel, throwing away his cards every time, nearly always leaving Jia Mingliang hitting air. This feeling was like accidentally swallowing a flyâextremely unpleasant and stifling.
"Kid, are you still a man? You act like a scared turtle just like a woman every time, you coward. Are you brave enough to have a real fight with me?"
Jia Mingliang looked across at Ye Xuan, his face showing a sneer. He wanted to provoke Ye Xuan into a direct confrontation!
"Whatâs the rush? Are you hurrying to be reincarnated? Iâm not even anxious. Iâll make my move when itâs time."
Ye Xuanâs face was as calm as an ancient well.
He remained completely unmoved by Jia Mingliangâs provocation.
"I..."
Jia Mingliang felt stifled, as if he had punched cotton, totally powerless, almost suffocating with frustration.
The Emperor isnât anxious, yet the eunuch is!
Ye Xuan was completely at ease; however, Murong Wanwan beside him was losing her patience. She clutched Ye Xuanâs sleeve and said,
"Ye Xuan, are you capable or not? Why do you keep holding back?"
Murong Wanwanâs pretty face was filled with anxiety; even she didnât understand why she felt so agitated.
It shouldnât have concerned her. In fact, she should have hoped that this villain would lose everything! That way, she could have her revenge and never have to see this repeatedly abusive man!
However, the reality was quite the opposite. She didnât want Ye Xuan to lose, as if she would lose something precious otherwise.
Slap!
Ye Xuan swung his hand and smacked Murong Wanwanâs bottom, fiercely saying, "Kiddo, a man should never be said to be incapable! Donât ever say that again."
Murong Wanwan gritted her teeth, cursing inwardly, "Big pervert, big bad guy, hitting my butt again, Iâll never be able to face people again!"
"Wanwan, Maid, quickly bring me a Fiery Flame cocktail! Brother is going to wreak havoc!"
Ye Xuanâs lips curled up, his spirits high as he instructed Murong Wanwan.
"Hmph, get it yourself if you want a drink. Iâm not going!"
Murong Wanwan pouted, her voice soft.
Ye Xuanâs words sounded odd to her, as if they had some other hidden meanings!
Moreover, she had promised the Queen not to be this guyâs maid anymore. Getting a drink for Ye Xuan would mean acknowledging her status as a maid. She wouldnât do it!
"Uh? You wonât go?"
Ye Xuanâs eyes narrowed, his lips curling into a mischievous smile, like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey, his face hinting at malintent.
"I... Iâll go..."
Seeing Ye Xuanâs look, Murong Wanwan almost reflexively agreed.
After agreeing, she regretted it. But under his intimidatory glamour, she could only pout and obediently fetch Ye Xuan a Fiery Flame cocktail.
"Not bad, this is what my good maid does!"
Ye Xuan grinned as he took the cocktail, then tilted his head back and gulped it down in one go.
Seeing this, Jia Mingliangâs face darkened terrifyingly. He swore that once he had Murong Wanwan in his grasp, he would make her his Maid... No! His slave, to command and entertain himself!
"Refreshing!"
Setting down the glass, Ye Xuan casually wiped his mouth and boldly said to Jia Mingliang, "Young Master Jia, playing small isnât fun at all! Are you brave enough to play a big game with me?"
Hearing this, Jia Mingliangâs heart leapt with joy, and he quickly replied, "Why not? Just say the word!"
He was waiting for Ye Xuan to fall into his trap. Playing big, the opponent was walking right into his plans.
"This round, raise the bet by half a million!"
Ye Xuan smiled lightly and directly pushed a pile of chips forward, raising the stakes by half a million in the second round.
