Chapter 775: Who said She’s just an Amateur?
Though Qiao Qing’s cards were good this round, the opponent’s cards were not at all bad.
Unless her last cards can somehow get her a royal flush, it was next to impossible for her to beat the opponent.
Based on the cards Qiao Qing had in her previous games, it wasn’t likely for her to be this lucky.
Plus, there were so many pairs of eyes on her throughout this game. Everyone saw that she never even took a look at her first two cards that were face down.
She didn’t even know what cards she had yet she dared to raise the bid?
Those who are ignorant have no fear.
Li Xiang eyed the opponent’s cards then checked out his. He had memorized his cards by now after checking so many times.
Currently, he had a flush. Unless his opponent somehow managed to get a royal flush, there was no way he could lose this game.
This was why he was confident enough to start the bid at $100M.
But when she raised it to $300M, he started to perspire.
After he debated silently for a while, he turned to ask Ming Shuo, “Uncle Ming, do I call?”
“If you give up now, you would be losing $200M. That’s not a small number by any means. Plus, you’d be losing the buy-in amount.” Ming Shuo was even more indecisive but he continued to analyze, “Based on what she has now, she may have gotten a royal flush. But the probability of that is so low. Unless she’s insanely lucky, you shouldn’t be afraid with your flush. Call!”
After Ming Shuo finished, Li Xiang no longer hesitated and pushed in the chips.
Qiao Qing’s lips curled up like they just got hooked by a fishing line.
Not many people noticed this slight curl of her lips. It did, however, fail to escape Jun Yexuan, who only had her in his eyes.
When he saw that smile of hers and remembered the casino’s rules, Jun Yexuan couldn’t help but exclaim.
So it looked like he was just a rookie. When it comes to being an evil genius, his girl was the best.
As he thought about it, he looked over to Li Xiang and Ming Shuo. He felt sympathetic.
Not only were they unaware of the trap they were walking into, but they also forgot something important.
When the dealer dealt out the last card, Qiao Qing had five cards face-up on the table. K of spade, 10 of spade, ace of spade, and 9 of clover.
Li Xiang sighed in relief.
As long as her first two cards were not those two particular ones, she wouldn’t lose.
He was still thinking when Qiao Qing said, “It’s time to show your hand.”
Li Xiang flipped his cards over – 6 to 10 of hearts – a flush.
Qiao Qing’s lips once again curled up as she showed her hands.
When Qiao Qing showed her first card, J of spade, Li Xiang’s pupils constricted and his heart suspended in his chest.
Ming Shuo, on the other hand, tightened his fists.
Everyone else also gasped and wondered if she really got so lucky and was dealt a royal flush.
Just then, Qiao Qing picked up her last card and flipped it onto the table.
When the Q of spade was shown, both Li Xiang and Ming Shuo turned grey. Their eyes were full of disbelief.
Everyone else at the scene was silent.
“Oh my god, are my eyes doing okay? She got a royal flush?!”
“She actually got so lucky! She had such bad hands the last two rounds and for this round, when the bet is up to $500M, she got the royal flush!”
“I haven’t seen that hand in so long! When I play poker, I dream of getting the royal flush!”
“Who said she’s just an amateur? I think she’s just been hiding her skill!”
“…”
Everyone exclaimed over the turn of events. Li Xiang and Ming Shuo were still stunned by what just happened.
