Chapter 366: Returning Fully Loaded

"It seems you have finally turned your luck around this time." The mustached man twisted his mustache and smiled at Luo Quan.

His card face was also a K and a 9, unfortunately not the same color, but he vaguely had a premonition that he would get a straight this time!

Everyone took turns speaking. This round was clearly a round of bloody battle to the end. Except for Johnson, who folded early because his card face was really too small, everyone else chose to raise.

Because it was an unlimited gambling game, everyone's bet was twice the previous one, so the raising chips were quickly raised to over one million.

After two rounds of betting, the fourth card was flipped, Heart J!

Luo Quan's cards were Heart A and Heart K. The public cards were Spade K, Heart Q, Diamond 3, Heart J. She was only one step away from a Royal Flush!

And the mustached man's cards were Spade 9 and Club 8, also only one card away from a straight flush.

The third round of betting started. Seifert, Augusta, and Kevin folded one after another.

Clearly, the public cards in this round were quite large, but their cards were basically all below 8. It was simply outrageous; they didn't have the capital to continue fighting at all.

Soon, only Luo Quan and the two professional players were left at the card table.

The two were clearly extremely dissatisfied with such a harvest. Everyone only raised for one round and then folded, and the pot added up to less than 5 million.

However, there seemed to be a fat sheep in front of them, looking like a novice who had just sat at the card table. Perhaps they could squeeze a little from her.

The mustached man looked at the hat-wearing man, as if saying this fat sheep was his, and you wait for the next round.

But the hat-wearing man acted as if he didn't see it. It seemed he also aimed at Luo Quan.

And the harmless Luo Quan was still nervously pressing the cards in her hand, looking forward to a Heart 10 coming to her later.

This was her first time playing Texas Hold'em. She had played "Fried Golden Flower" quite a lot before. In fact, "Fried Golden Flower" was like a simplified version of Texas Hold'em, but the rules were slightly different.

In "Fried Golden Flower," 3 As was the largest card, and a straight flush was slightly smaller.

Although she was playing Texas Hold'em now, she always subconsciously felt that the cards weren't big enough, but she also knew clearly in her heart that if a Heart 10 really came out, then she would be a sure kill.

However, at this time, she still looked quite nervous... the nervousness she acted out.

At the card table, card skills, luck, and momentum were all one of the winning magic weapons. Sometimes even if you touch a bad hand, if you can overwhelm your opponent in momentum, you can also make your opponent fold themselves.

Momentum, to put it bluntly, is acting. The more real you act, the more the opponent believes it, and then makes a wrong judgment.

What Luo Quan was playing at this time was a novice who had just sat at the card table and was worried about gains and losses, making these old oil sticks think at a glance that she was someone who could be easily won.

Playing cards, the mustached man and the hat-wearing man were professionals, but if they wanted to analyze people's real thoughts, they were complete laymen.

"Raise, 4 million." The mustached man was quite confident. He planned to use these chips to test the quality of this novice.

As soon as 4 million was called, Luo Quan's eyes widened, making an expression of entanglement and worry.

This appearance, in the eyes of others, was clearly a card face that was neither big nor small, wanting to bet but a bit afraid of losing.

The public card face was KQJ3, which was indeed easy to form a straight, but the suits of the public cards were different, and he was only one card away from forming a straight.

In the nearly ten rounds of games before, the largest card face was three Qs, and not even four of a kind had appeared.

He touched a straight this time, which could be said to be bursting with luck.

Interestingly, the person sitting next to him, the hat-wearing man, also silently chose to call.

In the nearly ten rounds of games before, the two cooperated tacitly, joining forces to harvest a group of rich second generations. Originally, they thought the relationship must be quite good.

Unexpectedly, now that they saw the same fat sheep, neither chose to yield, but immediately turned against each other.

But this was normal. There were no true brothers at the card table.

After a round of betting, the dealer flipped the last public card.

Heart 10!

The mustached man and the hat-wearing man finally settled their eyes, feeling that victory was in their hands.

Only Luo Quan was still in the same state of fear as before. Clearly, this 10 didn't have much effect on her card face.

From this analysis, her hole cards were most likely a K, Q, or J to form a full house.

In normal times, this was also considered a very large card, but unfortunately, in front of a straight, it was not enough to look at.

"Call, 4 million." Sure enough, Luo Quan, who had been raising before, didn't raise in this round, choosing to be safe.

"Raise, 10 million." The mustached man pushed a large number of chips into the pot.

In this round, he knew that Luo Quan had completely become a cash machine, and there was no need to pay attention to her anymore. What he had to deal with next was this friend of his. This 10 million was to test his quality!

Unexpectedly, the hat-wearing man remained unmoved: "Call."

Both were very confident in their card faces, and they couldn't see any clues from each other's expressions.

On the contrary, Luo Quan still timidly borrowed 10 million chips from Luo Yi and threw them in.

The mustached man frowned, falling into suspicion.

How could this newcomer be so reckless? Logically speaking, seeing the person below raise so much with a full house, how could she still dare to follow? She should have folded long ago.

Unless her card face was larger than a full house!

But this was an unlimited game. To show cards and compare sizes, one could only wait for someone to all-in.

Now that I've run into such a greenhorn, it has truly increased the difficulty of the game quite a bit.

This novice newcomer didn't matter. What the mustached man was really worried about was the companion who had been smiling.

He didn't want to increase the potential loss too much because of this novice.

Therefore, the mustached man said in a deep voice: "Newcomers to Texas Hold'em are always so confident, but such confidence is usually an important factor in making oneself suffer a crushing defeat."

"Why do you care how others play? If you don't call, fold quickly!" Luo Yi and Johnson pushed all their chips in front of Luo Quan, intending to support her to the end.

They didn't know what Luo Quan's card face was, and they didn't hold much hope, but this breath absolutely could not be swallowed easily.

Now it was clearly two tigers fighting, and Luo Quan was the one stirring the muddy water. As long as she kept stirring the muddy water, one of these two would definitely suffer a major loss!

"Hehe." The mustached man was retorted and didn't speak, continuing to call 10 million.

And the hat-wearing man directly raised: "20 million!"

The voice was a bit loud, attracting the attention of gamblers at nearby tables.

"Damn, the next door is already playing to 20 million?" Eric, who had just finished a round, suddenly heard this shout.

"It's my daughter!" Aunt Luo Ni had sharp eyes and saw it was her daughter playing against two foreign men.

"Everyone, I'll go over and take a look." Just as he finished a round, Eric stood up directly and walked over with his wife.

Also going over were many people from other tables.

The mustached man and the hat-wearing man, as the top four in the World Texas Hold'em Tournament, usually roamed major casinos, and winning 10 or 20 million in one night was a common occurrence.

At the same time, they also had their own industries, and their net worth was over 1 billion US dollars, which could be called a tycoon.

After all, if they were just good at playing cards, they wouldn't be able to get on this ship.

However, even with a net worth of 1 billion, this raise to 20 million was already very much. After these few rounds of raising, the chips won before were basically all thrown in, and the tens of millions of chips they exchanged before sitting at the table were not much left.

At this time, talking about stopping losses in time and closing hands was all bullshit. Having invested so many chips, no one was willing to let go. One had to know this was a pot of nearly 100 million US dollars!

"Call 20 million." Luo Quan pushed half of the pile of chips in front of her. The chips she borrowed from others were also almost bottoming out.

The mustached man's complexion was gloomy, and he began to regret why he hadn't been able to keep calm.

Before, at 5 million, seeing the person below call so firmly, he should have realized something was wrong.

But at that time, all he thought about was slaughtering this fat sheep, and as a result, he missed the best opportunity to escape.

Although folding at that time would also have a not small loss, at least overall, he was still winning.

And now, if he lost at the showdown later, it would be a total loss!

No, can't let that bastard raise again!

"All-in!"

In an unlimited game, no one called to stop, and raising would continue. The mustached man was not in the position of holding the initiative, and all-in was unfavorable to him, but he could only harden his heart and bet all his 30 million chips.

Now all-in, if he won, then he could take all the chips so far.

But if the other two continued to bet, then the subsequent chips would have nothing to do with him regardless of winning or losing.

The hat-wearing man's family background was thicker than the mustached man's, but seeing that the mustached man actually used a trick to draw the firewood from under the cauldron and didn't participate in the subsequent raising.

Then only he and Luo Quan were left to choose whether to expand the scale of the pot.

"Call 30 million." The hat-wearing man bet while exchanging chips from the casino.

"Raise, 60 million." Luo Quan saw that the time was ripe, and she directly revealed her cards, taking all the chips from Seifert, Cousin Augusta, and others, intending to make a big one.

Eric and Aunt Luo Ni jumped their eyelids watching from behind, not expecting their daughter to be so fierce. Didn't she say she wouldn't play Texas Hold'em?

The pot had already exceeded 200 million US dollars. However, for Luo Quan, she only invested 110,000 US dollars, and the others borrowed were all other people's chips.

Although she didn't say she wouldn't return them, if she was willing to play dumb, it was estimated that no one would ask her for them.

To tell the truth, if she really wanted money, she only needed to say a word, and there were plenty of people on the scene willing to be cash machines.

Having money is indeed amazing.

Although the hat-wearing man was a Texas Hold'em expert, he had no technology to use in this situation.

No matter how powerful the technology was, it couldn't defeat the net worth of sitting on a gold mountain. The possibility of winning and losing money at this time had nothing to do with the card face, just 50% each.

The key lay in whether he could accept the amount of money lost.

Now he only had two choices: one is all-in, and the other is to fold.

If he called, and Luo Quan raised again later, it would be 120 million!

His net worth was over 1 billion, but it didn't mean he had that much cash. If he really lost so much, the problem would be serious.

"All-in!" The hat-wearing man didn't dare to gamble anymore and directly bet all the 60 million chips he had just obtained.

Three-person game, two all-in, the betting stage finally ended, and it came to the tense and exciting card-opening stage.

The mustached man was the most impatient, flipping over his hole cards—a K and a 9, forming a 9-10-J-Q-K straight with the KQJ103 public cards, but not a flush.

"Hahahaha..." The hat-wearing man let out a long laugh. Sure enough, it was a straight. Then he also flipped over his hole cards—Heart 8 and Heart 9, surprisingly a Heart straight flush from 8 to 10!

The mustached man felt like he was struck by lightning, his brain buzzing, and he slumped into the chair, unable to get up again.

At this time, Luo Quan also revealed a sweet smile, smiling so brightly, like a sunflower under the beautiful sunshine, so beautiful and eye-catching.

The two professional card players couldn't see the slightest worry and timidity in Luo Quan's eyes at this time, only a look of joy mixed with calmness.

She only saw her stretch out her round and smooth fingers like white jade and gently flip over her hole cards.

"Holy shit!"

"Jesus!"

"Oh my godness!"

Although the words were different, the meaning expressed was basically the same. If it were in Chinese, in most cases, it would be two words: "Fuck!"

Luo Quan's hole cards were Heart A and Heart K, forming the largest card face in Texas Hold'em with the public cards—a Royal Flush!

A Royal Flush doesn't distinguish between suits. As long as it is a straight flush from 10 to A, it counts as a Royal Flush.

Whether it was the mustached man's ordinary straight or the hat-wearing man's straight flush, they were only killed in seconds in front of Luo Quan's Royal Flush.

Like the mustached man, no matter how calm the hat-wearing man had performed before, at this time he was like a black-spotted snake whose spine had been pulled out, directly turning into a puddle of mud in the chair.

Speaking of which, the mustached man's situation was slightly better than the hat-wearing man's, at least he didn't have the nearly 100 million raise at the end, and he didn't ride a roller coaster from heaven to hell.

The hat-wearing man was different. Originally, he thought his straight flush was already a sure kill, who knew there was a mountain higher than a mountain!

No one could have predicted the situation of a Royal Flush, and it was obtained by a novice who had folded for more than a dozen rounds. This was almost comparable to winning the jackpot in the lottery!

At this time, the two looked at that flower-like smile again. The world's most beautiful appearance had become more terrifying than the devil in hell. Thinking of the chips they threw in, they only felt the world spinning.

This is the casino, one thought is heaven, one thought is death. Sometimes winning to losing is in an instant.

Fortunately, these two were not ordinary people who needed to go bankrupt to gamble. Losing 100 million US dollars was definitely a major injury, but it wouldn't go to the point of jumping off a building tonight.

However, for a long time to come, they probably wouldn't touch gambling again. Luo Quan could be considered to have done a good deed.

And as the biggest winner tonight so far, Luo Quan hugged all the hundreds of chips with a face value as high as one million in the prize pool to her front.

She hugged them three times in total, she couldn't hug them all at once!

After paying back the borrowed chips, Luo Quan calculated the chips harvested this time.

Nearly 300 million!

"This is truly more profitable than robbing a bank." The tycoon who was complained about by Luo Quan before returned it with the same words.

Everyone laughed heartily... except for the two in the chairs.
