Chapter 7: 7

Wilson naturally did not know what Li Zhuo was thinking. He continued to introduce the rules of the bet with a serious expression.

“This game involves poker cards, and it is a common game. The usual five-card stud rules apply. One million chips per person, until all are lost.”

“Do the two of you have any questions?”

Armstrong said, “no questions.”

Li Zhuo said, “what… what do you think!?”

“There are too many questions!! First of all, I’m still a student. I’ve never gambled before, so how would I know what a five-card stud is?!”

“Secondly, how can a student like me get a million? ! I can’t even get 10,000! No, I can’t even get 50!!”

“Also, the most important thing is…”

Li Zhuo looked at Armstrong with a pained expression and pointed at him. “This guy has already admitted himself as a gambling master. How can I possibly win against him?!”

Li Zhuo’s voice grew louder and louder until it was almost a roar. The scene fell into silence. Everyone was staring straight at Li Zhuo.

The undisguised gaze of the surrounding people made Li Zhuo feel a little uncomfortable.

The next moment, Wilson suddenly burst out laughing. “You’re so humorous.”

“…”

Humor my ass!! Who the hell is being humorous with you!?

Li Zhuo was completely speechless. It seemed that Wilson still had a certain misunderstanding about Li Zhuo’s identity.

Sure enough, Wilson looked at Li Zhuo respectfully and said with a smile, “Mr. Li, as you can see, every prisoner in Section S seems to be an ordinary character. However, every one of them is a top criminal expert in this world.”

“They are real criminal masters, or… criminal artists.”

“Since you have come here, how can you be an ordinary student?”

I’m an f*cking ordinary student!!

Li Zhuo covered his face in pain and weakly waved his hand.

“Fine, fine, you can think whatever you want. But I really can’t take out a million, and don’t you think it’s a bit of a bully to ask me to beat this cheater?”

Alsop, who was at the side, smiled and said, “I’ll take out a bet on this handsome young man.”

“As for how to beat him… you’ll have to figure it out yourself.”

Alsop raised her hand and brushed her long, wavy, wine-red hair. She raised the goblet in her hand to his mouth with his other hand and took a sip of wine.

Li Zhuo glanced at Alsop. After a moment of silence, he looked back at the gambling table.

The gambling table was clean and refreshing. Apart from chips and poker cards, there was almost nothing else. The only thing that stood out was a small silver bell on the right-hand side.

Li Zhuo looked at the bell and asked, “what is this for?”

Armstrong, who was sitting across the gambling table, smiled and adjusted a more comfortable sitting position. “This is a bell of doubt. If you think I cheated, you can press this bell. I will accept the examination.”

“As long as you successfully catch me cheating, you win.”

“Of course, you only have one chance. On the gambling table, slandering others for cheating is a very harsh thing. If you press the bell but don’t catch me cheating, I will chop off your hands.”

Armstrong said this with a gentlemanly smile the whole time. It did not seem like he was saying anything shocking.

However, Li Zhuo also revealed a smile. He finally understood the real goal of this game.

It was absolutely impossible for Li Zhuo to win against this master gambler. Therefore, the most important thing in this bet was to catch Armstrong cheating before the one million chips were lost.

From the beginning, Li Zhuo’s only condition for winning was this. Everyone understood this point.

After Li Zhuo understood this point, he nodded and said, “alright, I have a rough idea. Then, please explain to me the way of playing stud.”

Regarding this request, Wilson did not raise any questions. Although he still felt that Li Zhuo was not an ordinary student, no matter who he was, it was normal that he had never played stud.

Since the other party had made a request, it was reasonable to give an explanation of the rules.

“Each player has one trump card. The trump card can only be opened when the winner is decided. Starting from the second card, every time a card is dealt, the card with the highest value will go place a bet first.”

“If a bet is placed, those who want to continue playing can choose to follow. After placing a bet, they will place the same chips as the previous player, or they can choose to place additional bets. If each player feels that their cards are in a bad situation and do not want to continue, they can choose to fold. They can pay and wait for the end of the game. The chips that they have previously placed can not be retrieved.”

“The last round of betting is the key to the game. In this round, the players can play stud. The so-called stud is the biggest bet that all the players who have not given up can place. After the people who placed their bets made their stance, they would reveal their trump cards to determine the winner. At this time, the person with the highest cards could win all the chips on the table.”

“The following are the combinations according to their rank. Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Fullhouse, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pairs, One Pair & Zilch.”

“Card suit ranking goes from Spade, Heart, Club, Diamond.”

Wilson flipped open the poker cards on the table as he explained the rules. He took out all kinds of cards and explained them in great detail.

After the introduction, Wilson looked at Li Zhuo and asked, “do you need to explain it again?”

Li Zhuo smiled slightly and said, “once is enough.”

Wilson was a little surprised at this point. A beginner who had never played poker could remember such a complicated rule in one go.

However, the others did not feel surprised at all. They had already seen Li Zhuo’s ability. It would be really strange if Li Zhuo could not remember it now.

The sound of slot machines in the corner continued to play, as if only Armstrong and Alsop were paying attention to the situation at the table.

“Since both sides have no problems, then the game officially begins.”

Wilson first gave Armstrong and Li Zhuo a trump card each. This was a hidden card. The card face was placed facing the table, and only the player could see what the card was.

Then, Wilson gave each of them an open card.

Armstrong’s open card was Ace of Spade, and Li Zhuo’s was Diamond 2.

Armstrong smiled slightly, gently picked up the Ace, and said, “it seems that my luck is not bad…”

Before he finished his words, Li Zhuo suddenly raised his hand and slapped the bell of doubt on his right hand.

The crisp ringing of the bell immediately attracted everyone’s attention. Even the sound of steel balls from the slot machine in the corner stopped.

The room immediately fell into silence..
