From the perspective of a best-of-three series, Gao Jianfei wanted to defeat Chen Yifeng directly in the second game! He didn't want to drag the game into a decisive third game!
If you want revenge, you have to wipe out Chen Yifeng in a thorough and satisfying way!
They won two games in a row, giving him no chance whatsoever!
"This all-in betting game is limited to one hour! Mr. Chen Yifeng, Mr. Gao Jianfei, you will each receive 100 chips. Whoever loses all 100 chips within one hour will immediately determine the winner; if neither loses all their chips within one hour, the chips will be counted after one hour, and whoever has more chips wins! Each round has a 5-chip ante. Understand?"
Song Qian announced directly.
"Understood." Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng both nodded.
Soon, two assistant referees appeared, each holding a drawer containing 100 golden chips.
Chen Yifeng and Gao Jianfei each had a drawer in front of them.
A deck of cards was handed to Song Qian. "Generally speaking, in high-level gambling competitions, neither side is allowed to use an automatic card dealer. The chief referee deals the cards manually. Do you two have any objections to this?"
Song Qian meant... he would deal the cards!
In that case, things become quite interesting!
Gao Jianfei didn't rush to answer Song Qian. Instead, he took out a pack of cigarettes, took one out, lit it, and started smoking.
Chen Yifeng immediately replied, "I have no objection. I believe in the Song family's fairness."
These words sounded extremely ironic to Gao Jianfei!
The Song family and Chen Yifeng are clearly in cahoots. Chen Yifeng naturally wouldn't object to Song Qian dealing the cards by hand, since it would all be in his favor anyway.
In fact, Chen Yifeng was extremely arrogant by nature. He originally wanted to defeat Gao Jianfei completely at the gambling table in a fair manner. However, after the first round of card grabbing, he discovered that Gao Jianfei was not as bad as he seemed!
From any perspective, Gao Jianfei possesses the ability to rival Chen Yifeng in strength!
The second game was extremely crucial!
In the second game, Chen Yifeng couldn't afford to lose; while Gao Jianfei, even after losing, still had a deciding game.
Therefore, Chen Yifeng no longer cared about his pride. He knew that Song Qian wanted to cheat for him, so he agreed without hesitation!
That's incredibly shameless!
So much so that Chen Yifeng couldn't help but blush slightly after agreeing to let Song Qian deal the cards by hand.
On the chairman's platform.
"Mr. Obasi, I am ashamed of the Song family's actions!" Yamaguchi Harumi immediately saw the problem. He said indignantly, "As the organizer of this match, although the Song family is in charge of the refereeing, I have an obligation to maintain fairness. Mr. Obasi, I am prepared to stop the match! This is unfair! Unless, of course, an automatic card dealer is used!"
Obasi frowned slightly, but he remained calm. "Yamaguchi-kun, let's not interfere for now. Let's see how Mr. Gao Jianfei handles it. Mr. Gao Jianfei is a proud man. If we interrupt the match rashly, it might backfire."
"Yes!" Yamaguchi Harumi nodded emphatically.
Not only on the 'Chairman's' stage, but also in the VIP seats, there were some discussions and criticisms. Some of Chen Yifeng's staunch supporters had begun to subconsciously reject him... Everyone could see that Chen Yifeng's relationship with the Song family was not so simple; there were some shady dealings involved. Now, Chen Yifeng had shamelessly agreed to Song Qian's request to manually shuffle the cards—it was truly... disgusting.
"Jianfei, let's use the automatic card dealer!" Feilong couldn't help but shout.
"Nephew, don't fall for it! I think this old man from the Song family is clearly in cahoots with Chen Yifeng!" Tang Bao shouted directly and bluntly. Just now on the phone, Gao Jin had directly warned him, "Bao, Texas Hold'em is extremely easy to cheat! If the referee deals the cards manually, it's essentially 2 against 1! Jianfei will definitely lose! You must remind Jianfei not to fall for it!"
Song Qian was also very conflicted. He felt embarrassed after proposing the manual shuffling solution, and he didn't think Gao Jianfei would agree to it!
Unless Gao Jianfei has something wrong with his head, he wouldn't agree to it!
Therefore, Song Qian thought to himself... If Gao Jianfei disagrees with shuffling the cards manually, then I will have to use an automatic shuffling machine. I can only secretly find a way to help Yifeng during the competition!
"Stop making noise, you're affecting the match!" Song Qian first reprimanded Tang Bao, Fei Long, and Gao Jianfei's friends and family, then turned to Gao Jianfei and said, "Mr. Gao Jianfei, this is just a suggestion. If you disagree, please say so!"
"Hehe, originally, under the premise of fair refereeing, dealing cards by hand is good, but..." Gao Jianfei smiled playfully, and instantly, he directly assembled 10 level 1 ghosts from the ghost den and made them appear!
Instantly, 10 clusters of emerald green phosphorescent flames materialized into human-shaped outlines beside the gambling table, and then 10 level 1 ghosts appeared!
Ten level 1 ghosts, laughing and joking, some clinging to Chen Yifeng, others jumping onto Song Qian's back, making faces, pinching Song Qian's hair and beard...
Of course, since ghosts have no physical form, they are like wisps of smoke, and no matter what they do, they cannot pose the slightest threat to people in reality.
Therefore, even when some ghosts stuck out their tongues and mischievously licked Chen Yifeng's cheeks, Chen Yifeng didn't notice at all!
Furthermore, these ghosts were all taken to the ghost den in Gao Jianfei's hometown of ZG City. They had no real relationship or enmity with anyone present during their lives; they were completely incompatible. There was no need to worry about them being seen through or having their forms observed by those present. Besides, those present were all successful people and social elites with abundant spiritual energy… Therefore, releasing 10 ghosts was a sure thing; there was no need to worry about being discovered by anyone.
"Heh, since you're going to cheat, then I'll have no choice but to cheat too. Let's see if you can outmaneuver me, or I can outmaneuver you!" Gao Jianfei chuckled inwardly.
Song Qian's cheating was simply shuffling the cards to give Chen Yifeng some good cards. However, this cheating couldn't be precise with every single card. It could only mean that Chen Yifeng was generally dealt some relatively good cards. After all, every time Song Qian shuffled the cards, Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng would lift the cards slightly, preventing Song Qian from completely controlling the game!
Gao Jianfei's use of a level 1 ghost to cheat is a complete bug-type cheat.
It can be said that Gao Jianfei has a Level 1 Ghost as his third eye, fourth eye... Gao Jianfei is fully aware of every single one of Chen Yifeng's trump cards!
"Alright, I'll give you a chance to team up. If I win this, then you'll have nothing to say... Hahaha! If I'm going to win, I'll make sure you can't hold your heads up high! I'll win cleanly and decisively!" Gao Jianfei actually agreed.
Song Qian shuffles the cards by hand! Deals the cards!
A murmur immediately broke out in the VIP section. Some guests whispered, "It looks like Gao Jianfei has lost this round."
On the podium, Obasi and Yamaguchi Harumi looked at each other in astonishment... They hadn't expected that Gao Jianfei would dare to agree even though he knew it was a trap!
"How can this be?" Tang Bao growled in dissatisfaction.
Feilong's face was also tense.
Only Feilong's wife remained relatively calm. She gently tugged at Feilong and Tang Bao, "Alright, sit down. I believe Jianfei is not a blindly impulsive person."
Chen Yaohui remained seated calmly. He smiled and said, "From the first day I met Jianfei, he has always brought me surprises and unexpected events. Therefore, I don't need to pay attention to the process of this match; I only need to know the result. And the result, I already guessed... Jianfei wins!"
"Heh..." Faced with Gao Jianfei's frank agreement, Song Qian and Chen Yifeng were both bewildered... They quickly exchanged glances, the unspoken message in their eyes being... Fine, if he wants to show off, let him lose badly!
"Alright, get ready to begin!" Song Qian immediately disassembled the deck of cards and handed them to Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng to check.
After the verification was complete, Gao Jianfei tossed the playing cards to Song Qian, "No problem, we can begin!"
After saying that, Gao Jianfei threw down five chips as his bet, placing them in the middle of the table. Chen Yifeng, chewing gum, also threw down five chips.
Song Qian began shuffling the cards.
Chen Yifeng stared intently at the cards in Song Qian's hand, which were constantly shifting positions, his ears twitching slightly as he silently memorized the changes in each card.
My memory, hearing, and eyesight have all been pushed to their limits.
Similarly, Gao Jianfei was doing the same thing as Chen Yifeng.
Meanwhile, the 10 level 1 ghosts were all lying on Song Qian's body as he was shuffling the cards, helping Gao Jianfei look at the cards.
After shuffling the cards, Song Qian handed them to Gao Jianfei, saying, "Mr. Gao Jianfei, please."
Gao Jianfei took the playing cards and, with a few swift movements, completely shuffled the cards that Song Qian had shuffled!
Song Qian's heart skipped a beat... "Such fast hands! In just a few moves, he messed up the card arrangement I had planned! It seems he was quite confident to agree to let me shuffle the cards by hand! I can't be careless, I absolutely can't be careless. During the match, I still need to find a way to help Yi Feng! Hmm, when I deal the cards, I'll find an opportunity to secretly switch the cards! Although doing this is very risky, it's the only way to defeat Gao Jianfei! Okay, the staff in the monitoring room are all from the World Gambling Association, so I won't worry about Gao Jianfei investigating after I cheat!"
After Gao Jianfei finished, he threw the cards to Chen Yifeng.
Chen Yifeng's face was gloomy. He shuffled the cards again briefly before handing them to Song Qian, the referee in charge of dealing the cards.
"Let's reveal Chen Yifeng's trump card first, I'll let him have it," Gao Jianfei said, feigning magnanimity.
Without saying much, Song Qian directly dealt the first card, the hidden card, to Chen Yifeng.
When Song Qian dealt the cards, some of the level 1 jokers squatted down to look at their cards, while others ran behind Chen Yifeng. In short, they used every trick in the book.
"A, the trump card is A." A level 1 ghost stuck out its tongue at Gao Jianfei, directly telling him what it had gleaned about Chen Yifeng's trump card. Of course, no one else could hear what a level 1 ghost was saying; only Gao Jianfei, the master of the super ghost instrument, could hear it clearly.
Gao Jianfei took out another cigarette and started smoking it with a smile.
In the first round of all-in poker, Gao Jianfei already knew exactly what cards he would get and what cards Chen Yifeng would get. After all, even after the cards were shuffled, Gao Jianfei could still accurately deduce the entire game based on his memory. Therefore, in the first round, Gao Jianfei chose to fold, only losing 5 base chips.
In the second round, after Song Qian shuffled the cards, Chen Yifeng took the lead, followed by Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng.
In the previous round, Chen Yifeng won, so the first card, face down, was still dealt to Chen Yifeng.
In this round, Gao Jianfei had pre-arranged the hand to his liking; if things had continued, Gao Jianfei would have won with a straight flush against Chen Yifeng's two pairs. Therefore, Chen Yifeng chose not to call. Gao Jianfei won back 5 chips.
In the third round, Gao Jianfei raised his hand first, followed by Chen Yifeng. In this kind of hand-raising, whoever raises their hand later has a greater advantage. For skilled players like Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng, raising their hand later can directly control the outcome of the game.
Therefore, in the third round, Gao Jianfei did not follow suit and lost 5 units of chips.
In the fourth round, Gao Jianfei took over and raised the score again.
Chen Yifeng became inexplicably anxious!
If this continues, with each side winning once, after an hour it will almost be a draw!
In a best-of-three format, if Gao Jianfei achieves one win and one draw, it will be difficult for Song Qian to determine the winner!
"I have to win the Texas Hold'em game. If I can't win even with Song Qian helping me cheat, and it ends in a draw, then the chances of cheating in other games like dice are much lower than in Texas Hold'em, and my chances of losing will be much higher!"
Chen Yifeng was well aware of the situation.
Therefore, while Gao Jianfei was throwing away his cigarette butt, he quickly gave Song Qian a wink!
Song Qian's hand moved swiftly! He changed the first hidden card that was originally going to be dealt to Chen Yifeng!
Once the first hidden card changes, Chen Yifeng's entire hand will change!
Originally, in this fourth round, according to the order of the cards, Gao Jianfei's two pairs should have won against Chen Yifeng's pair. However, Song Qian secretly switched the cards, and Chen Yifeng's first concealed card was a "J" instead of the original "Q". Therefore, he was also able to form two pairs and beat Gao Jianfei's pair.
"Haha, this time, I choose to go with you!" Chen Yifeng laughed.
"You call? Then I won't call!" Gao Jianfei laughed and threw away his cards.
"Huh? Did Gao Jianfei discover that Song Qian switched my cards?" Chen Yifeng was taken aback. Logically, in the fourth round, if he continued playing, as long as Gao Jianfei didn't know Song Qian had switched Chen Yifeng's cards, he would consider himself the winner. Now, Chen Yifeng was playing, but he wasn't!
"Hmph, if you don't want to play, that's fine! In the next round, I'll play second, and I'll still win! From now on, I'll win every single round!" Chen Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief!
It's important to know that although there was surveillance footage of this competition, the monitoring room was managed by high-ranking officials from the World Gambling Association. They could easily delete the footage afterward, especially the part where Song Qian helped cheat. Outsiders would have virtually no chance of discovering that Song Qian and Chen Yifeng were cheating!
In the fifth round, Gao Jianfei indeed dropped a card.
At first, each person won once, but now, Gao Jianfei has lost twice in a row!
The situation has become extremely unfavorable for Gao Jianfei!
All eyes were on Gao Jianfei!
Chapter 357 Trying to steal a chicken? No way!
Chapter 357 Trying to steal a chicken? No way!
In the second round between Gao Jianfei and Chen Yifeng... all in!
This is truly breathtaking! The entire audience fell silent!
If Gao Jianfei wins this game, the match will end immediately! Gao Jianfei has successfully defeated Chen Yifeng with two wins out of three games; if Gao Jianfei loses, the match will be dragged into a decisive game!
