Chapter 202: Lady Luck's Position

As DeWitt's words fell.

The scantily clad sexy dealer bowed his head slightly, with a professional smile on his face, and pulled out a white tool polished from the skeleton of some unknown creature from behind his back.

It is shaped like a ruler, with a layer of gold outlined on the edge, and the surface is frosted, which is very delicate and luxurious.

Meng Lei looked at it fixedly, and understood the purpose of the tool at a glance.

When the dealer deals the cards, in order to avoid the casino cheating on the cards, the dealer is generally not allowed to have direct contact with the cards.

The function of this ruler is actually to deal cards.

Meng Lei had seen a lot of movies before, and there were similar tools in the casinos on Blue Star, so it was obvious that there were many similarities between the two worlds.

At this time, there is no need for Devitt to explain too much.

The beautiful dealer used the tool in her hand to gently remove the first card from the deck, and then pushed it straight in front of Meng Lei.

Maybe the strong man told the dealer in advance about the way the two gambled,

Immediately afterwards, the beautiful dealer kept and handed the second hole card to Meng Lei.

These two hole cards are face down and are not allowed to be looked at by anyone, including the owner, until the final stage of the match.

"I don't know what the value of these two cards is, no matter what, you can't lose!"

Huo Ye's heart was beating in horror as he watched from behind, and he couldn't help but mutter.

"No matter how big the value of these two cards is, in the end, it still depends on the number of the community cards, which is more important than the total number of three cards, and each card is extremely important!"

Hans reminded in a whisper, equally uneasy in his heart.

It's just that Meng Lei, who is sitting next to the gambling table at the moment, has a blank expression on his face, without the slightest fluctuation.

Through the hint of the golden finger, he already knows the size of the card before it is dealt in front of him.

These two hole cards in your hand,

One of the points is "13" and the other is "10", adding up to 23 points.

That's a lot of money, and in many cases, it only takes those two hole cards to win the game.

However, it cannot be ruled out that the opponent also has a big hand, and the final result, whether to bet or fold, everything still depends on the size of the community card.

At this time, after the two hole cards in Meng Lei's hand were dealt, the beautiful dealer did not delay, and gently pushed De Witt's two hole cards over.

Then, she pushed out a card with exquisite workmanship from the deck and placed it in front of Meng Lei.

However, this card is positioned higher up than the other two to distinguish it.

This card is a community card, which needs to be opened to show everyone, and it is also the basis for betting on whether to follow up or not.

"Friend, the public card has arrived, why don't you open it and take a look?"

Seeing that Meng Lei got the public card, but he didn't make a move, DeWitt opened his mouth with a hint of suspicion.

He was very curious about how many points Meng Lei got for this community card.

Meng Lei smiled and shook his head, put on a more comfortable posture, comfortably retracted himself into the leather seat, and said, "Don't worry, Your Excellency De Vita, your public card has not yet been acquired, and we will lift the card together later."

Hearing this, DeWitt didn't say anything more, and raised his head slightly to the beautiful dealer, signaling her to continue dealing cards.

The beautiful dealer nodded slightly, pushed a brand new card out of the deck, and solemnly placed it in front of De Witt.

"Come on, it's time to decide your fate!"

DeWitt looked a little excited at this time, and his palm caressed the surface of the last community card, rubbing it gently, as if to inject good luck into it.

Meng Lei didn't continue to act, bowed slightly, touched the public card that belonged to him on the table, and lifted it elegantly.

Suddenly, including Huo Ye, Hans, and Serge.

A few onlookers next to him instantly looked at each other

All concentrated in the past.

The black-on-gold cardboard reflects the bright lights projected from the ceiling, and the crystal shines in everyone's field of vision.

On the card, a fanged and clawed fusiform jellyfish with twisted tentacles outlines the number "7" in one corner of the card.

Meng Lei's community card has a value of "7".

"Seven, judging by the overall sequence of the deck, is slightly higher than the average, but it's not a good hand!"

Huo Ye muttered in a low voice, and secretly sweated for Meng Lei.

At this time, DeWitt's eyes fell on the jellyfish with teeth and claws on the card, his expression moved, and he chuckled: "Luckily, it's actually a knotted jellyfish, which is already a big number."

For gamblers in Modo City, looking at the cards almost only by looking at the creatures on the cards will know the specific numbers.

Because these cards are all produced by the city of Mordo, using the same template, each card has a different sea creature printed on the surface.

Depending on suit and size, so are the types of creatures.

For example, various types of jellyfish, fish, and even alien sea monsters.

The higher the number of points, the higher the danger level of the sea monster.

For example, the card in ninth place has the Hammerhead Mother Empress, and the tenth card is Moluok, and the card diagram with the number eleven has become the Doomsday Worm, tied with the Abyss Banshee.

In this set of cards, the largest card in the number sequence is a monster that Meng Lei has not yet touched.

It's called "Rattle".

It appears to be a close relative of the mire swift family, humanoid, with a thick caudal fin.

Judging from the position of the sequence, the horror level should still be above the Abyss Banshee, and I don't know what it is.

Devit simply glanced at the creature on Meng Lei's card, then said no more, focusing on his community card.

"I hope Lady Luck is on my side."

DeWitt whispered silently, and under the gaze of the surrounding people, he slowly lifted the public card in front of him.

Suddenly, there was silence in the room, and everyone held their breath.

The hideous face of the abyssal banshee appeared in front of her, and the bloody mouth full of fangs and terrifying blood basin was like an invisible giant net, enveloping Huo Ye and the others.

A huge sense of oppression hit like a mountain in an instant.

Hans gasped, and scolded in a deep voice with a solemn face, "It's actually the Abyss Banshee, eleven o'clock, this is trouble!"

Serge, who had been paying attention to the situation on the field, saw the scarlet and piercing long tongue of the Abyss Banshee, Tong Kong also shrank suddenly, with a desperate expression on his face, a little despaired.

Meng Lei's community card sequence is only seven, which means that Eucalyptus is a knotted jellyfish with little threat.

And DeWitt's community card is as high as eleven points, which means that the picture is almost the top sequence of the Abyss Banshee in the entire deck!

The difference of four points is actually not very big.

But at the gaming table, even a small difference can ultimately be the difference between heaven and hell.

"Friend, it seems that my luck is not bad, and Lady Luck is on my side."

Looking at the hideous face of the Abyss Banshee on the card, Devit felt extremely cute for a while, and couldn't help but want to hug and kiss her.

His community card, the number of points can be said to be the existence of the most upstream batch.

Although the size of a card alone is not enough to determine the final outcome of the game, the weight of this card is quite large, and it is completely able to tilt the balance of victory in his favor seriously.

Moreover, even if the card is reshuffled, the next community card will not necessarily be bigger than this card.

Therefore, DeWitt has already made a decision in his heart.

This one, no matter what, bet on it.

"Hey......

At this time, Meng Lei, who had not spoken, suddenly sighed heavily, with a trace of helplessness on his face

shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's really a bit back, it looks like I'm destined to fold this hand?"

The slightly tangled tone seemed to represent Meng Lei's heart, who was also not very optimistic about this gamble and had plans to give up.

Hans also persuaded on the side: "Captain, the gap between our community cards is too big, or we should fold!"

"yes, there are two more chances anyway, try not to risk it!"

Huo Ye was also dissuaded on the side, not optimistic about the outcome of this game.

"Seriously, if it were me, I would probably choose to bet!"

At this time, DeWitt raised his hand and stroked his full blonde hair, as if he had a chance to win, and said with a little teasing:

"A community card doesn't mean anything, no one knows the size of the hole cards, maybe it will bring surprises?"

Meng Lei pursed his lips and looked sideways at DeWitt:

"So you mean, this is a sure bet?"

"Of course!"

DeWitt laughed, got up from his seat, took out a thick cigar and lit it, took a heavy puff, and said with a smile: "The community card is such a big hand, what other reason do I have to fold?" You have to place a bet!"

Hearing this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Meng Lei's face, nodded thoughtfully, smacked his lips and said:

"If that's the case, then I'll follow your advice and call!"

"Just follow it, follow ......"

DeWitt took over and was about to continue.

He originally thought that Meng Lei would give up this gamble, and he was ready to reopen it, and even the words continued with Meng Lei's tone.

After all, in the current situation, it is unlikely that a normal person would choose to call.

Unless it's a madman, or a gambler who has been cornered, trying to break the kettle and survive the Jedi.

But after a slight pause, he suddenly reacted, and then Huo Ran turned around in disbelief, and his eyes fell on Meng Lei in surprise.

"What did you say? Call? You're going to call?!"

"That's right, Lord DeWitt, this is with me, let's decide the winner in one game!"

Meng Lei looked at DeWitt with a smile on his face, his eyes were calm, and he couldn't see any mood fluctuations, which made DeWitt suddenly feel a little flustered.

As the nighttime manager of the casino, DeWitt has long learned to read words.

He can interpret the opponent's psychological activities at that time from some imperceptible micro-expressions of gamblers, so as to judge the size of the opponent's hole cards and whether there is a possibility of cheating.

However, he couldn't see anything in Meng Lei's eyes.

The opponent seems to be confident, and when the hole card is unknown and the community card is weak, he chose to call without hesitation, which is simply confusing.

But it's true that you don't know the hole cards, how can you have extra mental activity.

The other party is purely gambling, gambling without reason!

"What the hell is this guy thinking, is he a madman?! The community card is a full four points off, and you dare to call so unscrupulously?! Should I say that he is blindly confident, or is there something wrong with his brain?!"

DeWitt has met many gamblers, and most of them are cautious when it comes to betting.

There are also very few alternative situations, that is, they are very confident in their gambling skills, or they are forced to be cornered and ruined.

It is quite rare for a man like Meng Lei to have two chances to come back, but still choose to call when it is not in his favor.

"Friend, are you sure you want to call? Don't you want to do it all over again?"

DeWitt looked at Meng Lei with great interest, thinking that this person was very interesting, but out of curiosity, he still solemnly admonished:

"My community card is four points higher than yours, so you are so confident that the sum of the following hole cards can make up for the gap?"

Meng Lei smiled and shook his head, and said very casually:

"Who knows,

Since it is gambling, there can never be a 100% win rate, there is no 100% failure, there will always be a glimmer of life at the table, although ethereal, but it really exists.

Whoever is lucky will be able to catch it.

I'm just going to bet, and I'm going to bet that Lady Luck will end up on my side and bring me that opportunity with her own hands."

Hearing this, DeWitt's expression was stunned, and he immediately slapped his legs and laughed:

"Well said, man, you're a real gambler, and I like you!"

When the words fell, Huo Ye and Hans were anxious on the spot, and they were about to step forward to persuade Meng Lei to think twice, but Meng Lei waved his hand to stop them.

Then, he looked at DeWitt with a serious face:

"Lord DeWitt, open the cards!"

"Good!"

DeWitt nodded heavily, then lifted one of the hole cards and slammed it on the table.

"Sea mantis, six!"

A delicately drawn sea mantis leaps onto the board with a scythe.

DeWitt's second hole card, the number is "6", which is lower than the average in the deck, and the community card is a total of "17".

"Friend, it's your turn!"

DeWitt smiled and raised his hand to signal Meng Lei to open his cards.

Meng Lei was not pretentious, and in the expectant gaze of everyone, he waved his first hole card.

With a "snap", the delicate card fell to the table.

A terrifying and monstrous Moluok, reflecting a solid and thick huge shell in the light, like a giant shield of rock, almost covering the entire surface of the card.

"Morok, ten!"

"It's flat! The points are already flat! Both are seventeen! There's a chance!"

Looking at the Moluok hole card on the table, Hans and Huo Ye suddenly became excited, as if they saw the dawn of hope.

De Vita's expression froze, but his face was a little difficult to look at, but he didn't expect the second card to actually tie with the opponent.

It seems that the outcome will ultimately depend on the last hole card.

Taking a deep breath, Devitt closed his eyes and prayed in his heart, and finally slowly opened his last card......
