Chapter 201
Entering the Magic Tower (2)
“Hmm, this hand is much better than yours. Die.”
“Die.”
Thud!
Following the Old Man’s words, I laid down my cards without hesitation.
“Yo. What? Why are you dying so fast?”
“Hehe, this guy’s conservative, isn’t he?”
Shwaaa, chak chak chak!
Chips rolled across the table.
The crisp sound of shuffling echoed in my ears.
“Hmm, this time your hand is trash again. Oh? But, everyone else’s hand is trash too. This one’s worth betting on, eh?”
“Alright, call.”
I threw in the chips this time.
Reading the opponent’s psychology?
Calculating the odds based on my hand?
Such things are utterly unnecessary.
“Hehe, look at that guy’s expression. Can you feel it subtly distorting? Both of you have trash pairs, but yours is slightly higher. He’s getting nervous.”
Just.
Because I only need to do what the Old Man tells me to do.
Could there be an easier money game in the world?
“All in!”
Swish!
I grinned and pushed all my chips forward.
I know the opponent will fold anyway.
But, in the beginning, I need to establish that I’m the kind of person who bets big when I have the chance.
That way, when good hands come up, we can fight tooth and nail.
“Oooooooo!”
“Damn it. All in?”
“I thought you were conservative, but you’re bold? I’ll fold.”
“Me too. What kind of hand do you even have?”
As the men put down their cards, curious.
“Well, if you’re curious, pay up and find out.”
I teased them like that.
At the same time.
“Oops.”
Pretending to accidentally drop my card, revealing it?
“What the…… insane?! He all-in with that trash hand?”
