Chapter 1208: Another Time
Seeing Zoran repeating her old trick, going all-in without even looking at the flop, the other players shook their heads and threw away their hole cards.
Now everyone was watching Ling Feng, eager to see if he would follow suit!
Based on previous performance, Ling Feng never seemed intimidated by anyone. As long as someone went all-in, he’d immediately follow, and then win the opponent’s chips!
But this time, everyone noticed that he was hesitating!
Faced with Zoran’s provocation, Ling Feng suddenly felt a sense of caution in his heart. It seemed this woman was waiting for something; her provocation wasn’t aimless; she had confidence!
As for what this confidence was, Ling Feng had no idea!
Zoran now had eight billion, while he himself had a little over ten billion. If he followed and lost, he’d be left with only two billion.
That would make him the player with the fewest chips at this table, very risky!
Silence fell over the crowd, all eyes were on Ling Feng, waiting for his decision.
Zoran took a somewhat aggressive stance, seeing him hesitate, she sneered and said, "What’s wrong? Aren’t you the uncrowned God of Gamblers? Don’t you dare follow anymore?"
"Who said I don’t dare? I just need to think for a moment!"
Ling Feng let out a cold laugh, turned to glance in Yu Linglong and others’ direction.
At that moment, Ye Qian suddenly put out a small hand, gesturing an OK sign to him!
Ling Feng was stunned, but then understood something, and took a deep breath: "Since you want to leave early, why shouldn’t I grant your wish?"
Having said that, he pushed all his chips forward!
Everyone widened their eyes, faces full of shock, but Zoran remained unperturbed, instead, she smiled slightly, "Thank you for granting my wish, but what you’re granting is my wish to kick you off the table!"
After speaking, she directly revealed her two cards: "Let’s see how you make four of a kind this time!"
To everyone’s surprise, her two cards were a pair of 10s!
Ling Feng’s heart shook violently; how did this woman know his hole cards contained a 10?
Facing the scorching gazes of the crowd, Ling Feng smiled and revealed his hole cards.
"Hiss....."
Everyone gasped in astonishment, how could he dare to follow with such a hand?
It was completely trash cards, let alone Zoran had a pair of 10s, holding an absolute advantage!
The upcoming flop, turn, and river, no matter what, the advantage was with Zoran, because her hand was strong!
Everyone’s highest card was a 10, and she had a pair, now Ling Feng was in trouble!
In many people’s minds, Ling Feng was destined to lose!
The undefeated legend was about to be rewritten.
Ling Feng too was feeling a raging storm inside, Ye Qian clearly told him it was okay, but now with such a hand, how could he win?
The shock was visible on his face, Zoran saw this and became even more smug, sneering, "Accept your fate, you’re bound to lose!"
"..."
Ling Feng paused for a moment, looked up at her: "My chances of winning aren’t high, but it doesn’t mean there’s none. Don’t gloat too soon!"
"Hahaha, unless you turn it around with that little three, but unfortunately, that’s almost impossible!" Zoran sneered.
"There are many impossible things; haven’t you watched my previous matches?"
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, turned to the dealer: "Deal the cards!"
"Alright!"
The dealer nodded, drawing three cards from the deck.
Everyone’s gaze fixed on his hands; many, though unrelated, felt suspended in tension, faces full of anxiety.
Ling Feng felt similarly tense inside, but his face remained unchanged, showing no expression.
2, 3, 10.
As soon as the flop hit, Zoran got a set.
Ling Feng two pairs.
"Oh, your luck is pretty good, even got another 3!"
Zoran’s eye twitched for a moment, then sneered.
Ling Feng looked at her: "What do you mean ’even’? Do you think someone already had a 3 in their hole cards?"
"That’s not true!"
Zoran shook her head and said calmly, "Trying to trick me, huh? No chance!"
Ling Feng felt wordless, chuckled, looked at the dealer: "Continue, please!"
"Alright!"
The turn card was quickly dealt, another 3!
Zoran’s expression immediately changed!
The spectators also widened their eyes, began whispering and chatting lowly.
Judging by this, Ling Feng might very well replay the previous game, beating the opponent with a four of a kind, almost impossible to get!
It had happened several times already, and despite every occurrence being unbelievable, he just seemed ridiculously lucky, always able to get four of a kind!
And this time, many began believing Ling Feng was bound to win!
As for Zoran, her gaze suddenly turned dark, staring into Ling Feng’s eyes: "You’re cheating!"
"Sorry, please mind your words. I’m sitting here doing nothing. If you insist on accusing me, I have the right to demand evidence!" Ling Feng said calmly.
No matter how Zoran knew his hole cards, her prediction had failed, which is why she was now losing face.
Ling Feng began regaining his confidence, feeling the last river card must be a 3!
His luck remained, and the opponent’s tactics didn’t work.
It must be Ye Qian’s handiwork, otherwise, she wouldn’t have signaled to him!
With this confidence, Ling Feng chuckled, and said to the dealer, "Continue, please, I can hardly wait."
"Alright!"
The dealer nodded, burning one card and uncovering the final river card!
"3, it’s a 3!"
At the sight of the card surface, someone immediately jumped up!
Then everyone saw the river clearly and also stood up.
It indeed was a 3!
Ling Feng once again made a four of a kind, defeating Zoran!
The scene was filled with noise; some were exclaiming in amazement, others finding it hard to comprehend, and there were those full of excitement, happier than if they’d won themselves.
As for Zoran, her face turned pale, staring blankly at the five cards on the table, speechless!
She lost utterly; her formerly second-place chip count now directly wiped out, significantly increasing Ling Feng’s chips, bringing him a step closer to becoming the Gambling King!
Seeing her like this, Ling Feng smiled quietly, exhaling deeply inside.
As he sorted his chips, Zoran stood up without a word, ready to leave.
Seeing this, Ling Feng asked, "Will we meet again, right?"
Zoran turned back and glanced at him, slightly nodded: "Indeed, wait for me!"
"Better hurry, I may be leaving this afternoon!"
Ling Feng lowered his head, sorting his chips, said indifferently.
Zoran’s expression was of no interest to him; saying so was merely to rub salt into her wounds, to spite her further!
The scene soon quieted down, with seven people remaining at the table.
The subsequent game became dull, everyone lacking fighting spirit, just wanting to exhaust the blind bets, waiting for the player with the fewest chips to be eliminated.
Two hours later, the game ended.
