?58: Chapter 58 The Great Battle of Golden Flowers (3) 58: Chapter 58 The Great Battle of Golden Flowers (3) A rare good hand had Ye Feng feeling extremely excited; he was itching to make a big play.

    If possible, Ye Feng even wanted to win all Wang Jia’s money in one swoop, seeing how annoying and arrogant that guy was.

    “It’s my turn to raise, so I won’t hold back, 20,000!” When it was Ye Feng’s turn to raise, he actually raised a smaller amount, also not looking at his cards, adding 20,000.

    “I’ll call!” Perhaps infuriated by Ye Feng, Wang Jia also didn’t look at his cards and chose to call.

    “Heh heh!

    Since you’re all having so much fun, I might as well join you.” Li Minjie chuckled and tossed out 20,000 chips as well; after all, he had already won quite a bit, so 20,000 didn’t bother him at all.

    After Li Minjie put down his chips, it came around to Wang Jia to raise.

    This time, Wang Jia didn’t bet blindly but cautiously checked his cards.

    When he saw them clearly, a gleam of cunning flashed in his eyes, though it was fleeting, it was easily caught by Ye Feng.

    Wang Jia’s hand was very good, but he pretended it was poor, his face full of worry.

    “10,000!” Of course, a good act required going through the entire routine, so to achieve a realistic effect, Wang Jia only bet 10,000 chips.

    “Tsk!” Li Minjie showed a look of disdain, then looked at his own cards.

    Seeing that his hand was excellent, Li Minjie’s eyes lit up and a delighted smile appeared on his face.

    Of course, Li Minjie wasn’t that foolish, for the excited smile was gone in an instant.

    Even so, for an expert like Wang Jia, that was a fatal tell, and he easily picked up on Li Minjie’s expression.

    It’s clear that Li Minjie’s past losses were no accidents; his skills were far inferior to Wang Jia’s.

    “I’ll call!” Li Minjie feigned a look of having a terrible hand, shaking his head and gritting his teeth as he decided to call.

    “Ha ha!” Seeing the two of them putting so much effort into their acting, Ye Feng let out an idiotic laugh.

    “Since your hands are so bad, I won’t look at my cards either.

    I’ll raise by 50,000.”

    Since he wanted to win big, Ye Feng naturally wouldn’t look at his cards.

    His aim was to make Wang Jia lower his guard and focus his attention on Li Minjie, while all he needed to do was keep raising.

    Indeed, seeing that Ye Feng didn’t even glance at his cards, Wang Jia paid him no mind, turning his attention instead to Li Minjie.

    He had intended to compare hands, but he still hesitated.

    It seemed a pity to compare hands with such good cards in his possession.

    “I’ll call!” Ultimately, Wang Jia pushed out 90,000 chips, choosing to call.

    “Alright!

    I’ll call too.” Li Minjie gave a smile and likewise tossed out 90,000 chips.

    “Whoa!”

    The scene became a sensation, and the onlookers started to discuss excitedly.

    “It seems that both Young Master Li and Young Master Wang have very good hands this round.

    It’s just a question of who will have the last laugh.”

    “Isn’t it?

    It’s understandable for these two to be betting so wildly, after all, they’ve looked at their cards.

    But can someone tell me where that guy, who didn’t even look at his cards, got the courage to raise?

    Was he just here to lose money?”

    “Shh!

    Keep it down, even if he’s truly ‘water,’ you shouldn’t talk nonsense, he’s Young Master Li’s sworn brother; be careful.”

    “Oh man, that’s impressive.

    Looks like none of these three are to be messed with.”

    Amidst the crowd’s comments, Ye Feng clearly wasn’t favored, but his tactic of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger was already somewhat effective.

    “I’ll raise another 100,000.” Li Minjie had won quite a bit earlier, hence he appeared wealthy and bold, flinging out another 100,000 in chips without hesitation.

    “I’ll follow!

    Just to join in the fun,” Ye Feng said with an indifferent smile, choosing to call.

    Li Minjie heard his words, grinned, and almost fell over.

    ‘Damn it, using 50,000 to join in the fun, could you please take this seriously?’

    Of course, the money was Ye Feng’s, and Li Minjie had no right to comment, nor did he want to.

    Happiness is the most important thing, isn’t it?

    Why take money so seriously?

    “I’ll follow!” Wang Jia thought for a moment and also pushed out 100,000 in chips.

    After this round of betting, Ye Feng had bet a total of 120,000, while Wang Jia and Li Minjie had the same amount bet, at 220,000.

    “I have a suggestion, since neither of you is willing to back down anytime soon, how about we raise the stakes by 500,000?” Seeing that Wang Jia had already fallen into the trap he had set, Ye Feng smiled and cheerily proposed.

    “500,000?” Wang Jia frowned, glanced at the chips in his hands, which were just over 500,000, and realized that Ye Feng wanted to go all in with him.

    “No!” Wang Jia shook his head; he wasn’t willing to settle for that.

    His own cards were so good, why only raise by 500,000?

    “You raise by 250,000, we raise by 500,000, and then Minjie and I will compare cards.”

    That was Wang Jia’s thought.

    He wasn’t content with just betting 500,000.

    You have to understand, he had a Straight Flush, which was invincible in most normal card games.

    “Whew!”

    The spectators at the scene gasped.

    They hadn’t expected that Wang Jia wouldn’t be satisfied with a mere 500,000 and instead wanted more.

    “It seems that Wang Jia has very good cards, now there’ll be a good show to watch.”

    “Yeah, look at that guy who didn’t look at his cards and chose to play it cool.

    How’s he going to handle this?

    I wonder how much Wang Jia wants to gamble.”

    “Haha!

    Exactly, let that guy play it cool; now he’s hit a snag, hasn’t he?”

    While surprised, the crowd was extremely excited.

    In their eyes, no matter what, Ye Feng was doomed to lose terribly this hand.

    “Alright!

    I have no problem with that,” it was somewhat surprising to the crowd, but Ye Feng didn’t even think about it and agreed right away.

    “What about you, Minjie?”

    “Okay, I’ll compare cards for 500,000; I’ll follow,” Li Minjie’s hand also held a Straight Flush.

    He simply didn’t believe he would lose this hand.

    “Rattle!”

    Since they had agreed, the three players hesitated no further and threw out their respective chips; a large pile of chips collided with the table, producing a rattling sound.

    After placing their bets, Wang Jia and Li Minjie handed their cards to the croupier to compare them.

    Li Minjie’s cards were indeed good: Diamond 4, 5, 6.

    Although it was a smaller Straight Flush, it was already a very strong hand.

    But Wang Jia’s cards were better: the Spade 8, 9, 10.

    Among Straight Flushes, these were considered quite strong.

    “Wang Jia wins!” The croupier put Li Minjie’s cards into the discard pile and declared Wang Jia the winner.

    “Wang Jia is just a notch above, isn’t he?

    Worthy of being called the God of Gamblers.”

    “Not surprising.

    It’s not the first time Minjie has lost to Wang Jia, right?”

    This result didn’t surprise anyone; after all, Wang Jia was used to winning.

    His victory this time wasn’t strange at all, since he was the God of Gamblers.

    “Hoo!” Wang Jia let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had just eliminated the strongest opponent.

    Indeed, in everyone else’s eyes as well as in Wang Jia’s, Li Minjie was Wang Jia’s biggest threat.

    However, what they didn’t realize was that this was a smokescreen deliberately set by Ye Feng.
