Chapter 1524
The First Heir
âHow about it, Mr. Clarke? Itâs time for you to reveal your card! Now that youâve seen my hole card, are
your hands shaking so much that they canât hold onto your card anymore?â the foreigner taunted.
Philip said to the foreigner, âSince Iâve staked everything I have, I wonât regret it. But for you to call my
150,000 dollars, arenât you afraid of losing? I advise you to back out now while Ihavenât revealed my
card.â
The foreigner waved his hand and said, âDo you think itâs useful to intimidate me?â
While saying that, he took two chips from in front of him and threw them on the table.
âGo on. I donât believe your luck is still as good as the last hand!â
Philip shook his head and said, âYouâre right, I had good luck in the last hand. The odds of having good
luck two hands in a row are pretty small.â
As Philip said that, he used two fingers to pick up his hole card. âHowever, I donât know why, but my
luck is really that good. Are you angry?â
With that said, he tossed his hole card on the table.Many people gathered around to look at it.
It was actually ten of hearts!
The audience was in an uproar!
âItâs really a ten!â
âThis kid has some moves!â
Everyone started talking about it. Although this hand was only worth 150,000 dollars, it was a big win
using a small hand. Philipâs spirit and courage won everyoneâs applause.
The foreigner frowned slightly, and the expression on his face changed fleetingly.
Could this kid be a hidden expert?
âVery well, young man. Youâre very gutsy, and your guts are also worthy of your luck. I wonder if you
can keep up with this lucky streak?â the foreigner said.
âWe shall see. Letâs continue to deal out the cards,â Philip said.
âHold on.â
The foreigner raised his hand to stop the croupier who was about to deal out the cards and said, âBring
another deck of cards. This young man has good luck. I think we can play a few more games.â
The croupier nodded and took out another deck of cards.
Victor ordered someone to fetch the chips for Philip and laid them out neatly in front of him.
Now, Philip already had 300,000 dollars worth of chips in front of him.
The game continued.
In the next few rounds, Philip and the gambling expert invited by Randolph had their respective wins
and losses. However, Philip still won more rounds.
After seven or eight games, Philip already had two million dollars worth of chips in front of him.
The foreignerâs expression slowly became solemn.
First of all, he had now concluded that Philip was definitely not an amateur!
During these few games, he had been carefully observing Philip.
He noticed that every time before Philip won, he would wager everything!
This showed that this person would maximize his interest when he was confident in his hole card.
In fact, to determine whether a person was a real gambling expert, the most important thing was
psychological warfare.
A true gambling master could guess the opponentâs cards through some very minor details, and some
could even speculate the opponentâs cards by directly observing their opponentâs eyes and the order in
which they were dealt.
This habit of Philipâs was soon grasped by the foreigner, who was known as a gambling expert.
In the eleventh game, after the fifth card was dealt. Philipâs cards were the nine of hearts, seven of
diamonds, four of spades, and three of spades.
The foreignerâs cards were the king of spades, ten of hearts, seven of clubs, and two of spades.
Once again, there were no straights, pairs, or three of a kind in the two playersâ hands.
It was time to bet against the hole cards for a pair again. The foreigner took a look at his hole card and
said with a smile, âAll in!â
While saying that, he pushed down the chips in front of him.
Philip had two million dollars.
The foreigner had 30 million dollars in chips when he started. He had lost two million to Philip and now
had 28 million left.
Clatter.
The foreigner pushed two million dollars in chips out. âHow about it, Mr. Clarke? Do you dare to call?â
the foreigner mocked.
Philip took his hole card in his hand and gently flicked it open to look at it before raising his eyes to the
foreigner. He said, âDo you want me to call?â
âOf course I want you to call, unless you dare not!â The foreigner continued to trigger Philip with his
words.
Philip smiled and pushed the chips in front of him forward. The two million dollars worth of chips in front
of him collapsed with a bang.
âIâm with you. All in.â
âHold on!â The foreigner suddenly raised his hand.
âWhat? Are you backing out?â Philip asked in confusion.
âOf course not, Mr. Clarke. I want to ask if youâ d like to raise the bet?â the foreigner said.
Philip waved his hands. âBut I only have two million dollars in chips here. How can I raise the bet?â
âI can lend you the money. If you lose⦠Since youâre gambling on behalf of Yolanda, the money will
naturally be borne by her,â the foreigner said.
Philip asked, âHow much do you want to raise?â
âFive million! If you lose and donâ t have money to pay back, let her accompany our boss for one night!â
There was an evil smile on the foreignerâs face.
