Chapter 1204: Defying Heaven
"Fantastic, absolutely fantastic!"
"Ling Feng, your luck is simply unbelievable, you managed to hit such a low probability!"
"Indeed, Ling Feng, you played excellently this round!"
The fellow gamblers at the table cheered and flattered Ling Feng.
Ling Feng just smiled and glanced at Yu Linglong.
She was also looking over, their eyes met, and they both smiled!
"This girl really brings me luck, with her around, I’m winning every game!"
Ling Feng thought to himself, then looked at the new two cards dealt.
Diamond 3, Heart 9.
Two cards that don’t connect at all.
According to seasoned gamblers’ habits, seeing such cards, they wouldn’t even bet a penny, just fold them directly.
But Ling Feng didn’t want to do that, although the blinds on the table total only a few thousand US Dollars, even a mosquito’s leg is meat, right?
And now it was Ling Feng’s turn to bet, he thought for a moment, took out a thousand-dollar chip and tossed it into the pot.
The others exchanged glances, some hesitated and chose to fold, some thought a thousand wasn’t much, especially since the chips were only for scoring, not real money, so they decided to call and see what the flop held.
The flop revealed, right away, three 9s!
Ling Feng once again held the top hand in the flop round.
But only he knew, the others were unaware.
Someone saw the flop and suddenly felt a shock in their heart!
Because he held an Ace and a King!
Such hole cards were already quite strong, second only to a pair of Aces.
Now it was his turn to bet, so he looked up at Ling Feng: "You wouldn’t happen to have a 9, would you?"
"What do you think?"
Ling Feng neither confirmed nor denied, maintaining a calm demeanor.
The opponent squinted, trying to discern any clue from Ling Feng’s expression, but alas, Ling Feng was too composed, his face showing no sign of weakness!
The man stared at Ling Feng for a full minute before saying, "I raise you to one hundred thousand!"
"Oh, someone else wants to challenge Ling Feng!" said a spectator.
"Only a hundred thousand, what’s a challenge about that, go all in if you dare!" others said.
"Exactly, that’s just probing, bet if you think Ling Feng raises and the guy folds right away?" someone else said.
As people discussed, the second-position white-haired gambler said, "I call one hundred thousand!"
The gambler with AK heard and his eyes widened in shock: "You too?"
"Yes, my hand’s decent too, why not call?" the white-haired gambler shrugged.
"Fine, suit yourself!" the gambler with AK nodded.
Everyone else folded, now it was Ling Feng’s turn.
Unexpectedly, he didn’t increase the bet, just took out a hundred thousand in chips and chose to call.
The audience hoping to see those two gamblers fold showed expressions of disappointment!
With three betting, the pot now looked like over three hundred thousand US Dollars, the dealer knocked on the table and revealed the turn card.
The fourth turn card, Club Ace!
The gambler with AK now formed a full house, three 9s and a pair of Aces!
There’s no chance for a straight on the board, besides four of a kind, a full house is the highest!
Seeing this, the man squinted and thought, starting to feel excited.
He didn’t believe Ling Feng could get four of a kind, the odds were too small to be possible!
So he looked at Ling Feng, sneered, and said: "Although you’re strong, I’m still not satisfied and want to challenge you, I bet five hundred thousand!"
The tone was assertive, but it resulted in a chorus of boos!
The spectators secretly thought, since you’re going to challenge, why not go all in, why leave so much behind?
Clearly lacking confidence!
And now it was the white-haired gambler’s turn, he directly voiced the spectators’ thoughts, sneered and said: "Your challenge is worthless, if you’re confident, why not go all in?"
"Go all in if you dare!" the gambler with AK retorted.
The white-haired gambler nodded: "Indeed, I intend to go all in!"
With that, he pushed all his chips forward!
"He has an Ace!"
All who understood Texas Hold’em rules thought this.
These two gamblers dared to bet so because they formed a full house and didn’t believe Ling Feng could get four of a kind, so they raised their bets!
Ling Feng also knew what hand they held, and inwardly couldn’t help but chuckle coldly.
One becomes reckless with gambling, rationality thrown aside.
The gambler with AK now wore an unpleasant expression, seeing the white-haired gambler go all in, his five hundred thousand was as good as gone, the best outcome was if Ling Feng didn’t have four of a kind, chose to quit, then he and the white-haired gambler both had full houses, so neither could win much, just split the pot.
Unexpectedly, Ling Feng smiled at this moment: "Seems like you both have full houses!"
The white-haired gambler nodded: "Yes, since you know, I’d advise not to call, lest you break your unbeaten record!"
"Haha, why would I lose?"
Ling Feng laughed, directly pushed his chips forward: "I call!"
"Oh my goodness, Ling Feng again with four of a kind!"
Seeing this, the audience were blown away!
The two gamblers with full houses hadn’t expected Ling Feng to really call, they were instantly stunned!
Especially the gambler with AK, his mind completely froze, dazed on the spot!
If not for the dealer’s reminder, he wouldn’t know when he’d snap out of it!
Seeing the pile of chips in the pot, he thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "I fold!"
Although he’d tossed over half of his chips, it was still better than losing everything!
And the white-haired gambler had no choice, seeing Ling Feng go all in, he could only smile ruefully: "Ling Feng truly is the God of Gamblers, seeing my hand and still dared to call, I concede!"
With that, he revealed his hole cards.
A pair of Aces!
Then, the white-haired gambler’s eyes gleamed, seeing Ling Feng unperturbed, smiling he said: "I still have one chance now, that’s the river card, even if you hold a 9 now, as long as the river shows an Ace, I can still win!"
Having just finished, the gambler with AK sneered: "Don’t kid yourself, my cards are Ace and King, you’re bound to lose!"
There are only four Aces in a deck, one on the board, two in hole cards, he held one, so the river cannot be an Ace!
He struck quickly at the white-haired gambler because he thought him too arrogant, raising and counter-raising behind him, now let’s see him taste the bitter fruit of losing everything!
Sure enough, upon hearing this news, the white-haired gambler’s smile instantly froze!
He had thought the other had a pair of Kings or something, hadn’t expected a hand with an Ace!
And at this moment, Ling Feng also revealed his cards: "Sorry, I really do have a 9!"
"Wow!"
Exclamations exploded on site, other table’s gamblers stopped their matches, all eyes turned to this side.
