297: Chapter 297 Did he admit defeat?
"Forget about them! Watching a scene like this is the most exciting!"
"Who do you think will win?"
"I think it's the newcomer."
"Heh! Impossible! CEO Chen has never lost!"
"Could it be Chairman Gu?"
Just as they were discussing enthusiastically, Gu Hui threw in his cards.
No one expected Gu Hui to fold at this moment; they thought he would stay in until the very end.
"It seems CEO Gu's hand isn't very good. Probably just a pair..."
"How could a pair stay in until the end?"
"Then how else do you explain him folding now?"
As he spoke,
it was Shen Yan's turn to toss in his chips again.
If the last community card wasn't a Queen, Shen Yan would definitely fold now.
Because he only held a pair, and pressing on further was meaningless.
But there were two Queens among the community cards.
If the opponent's hand was just slightly smaller than his, he could perfectly overpower them.
Although the probability wasn't very high, Shen Yan didn't want to give up at this point.
So, he called out a new multiplier.
"Thirty-five thousand times."
Immediately after, Chen Wu raised the bet again.
"Forty thousand times."
In Texas Hold'em, besides winning with hand rank, there was another way to beat the opponent: overwhelming them with momentum, making them believe your cards must be better than theirs, prompting them to fold to cut their losses.
It wasn't his own money being spent anyway.
Shen Yan continued to call out bets without feeling any heartache.
After a few more rounds of bidding, Shen Yan paused to think, then pushed all his chips onto the table.
"All in."
At these words, everyone held their breath.
Shen Yan had gone all in.
If Chen Wu wanted to continue, he could only choose to go all in as well.
They watched Chen Wu nervously, waiting for his next move.
Time ticked by second by second.
After an unknown amount of time,
Chen Wu suddenly threw his cards onto the table and said, "Fold."
Surrounding guests: "????"
Shouldn't you be matching the all-in right now?!
Shen Yan shared their thoughts.
He had expected Chen Wu to go all in just like him to decide the winner, but unexpectedly, the other party folded.
Could it be that the opponent only had a pair and was just bluffing and fighting him all along?
While he was thinking,
the dealer had already stacked all the chips onto his table.
"Sir, would you like another round?"
Shen Yan was just about to shake his head in refusal when he saw Gu Hui and Chen Wu stand up and say to him, "All these chips are yours. Keep playing, play whatever you want. We'll wait for you upstairs."
Shen Yan: "..."
Huh?
What exactly were these people trying to do?
Although he didn't know their exact intentions, these people clearly gave him no room to refuse, and they turned and headed downstairs.
Seeing this, Shen Yan had no choice but to wander around and casually toss a few chips at whatever caught his eye.
He had to admit, these table games were quite fun.
After playing a few rounds, he started to get carried away, throwing chips around as if they cost nothing.
Soon, he lost one-fifth of the chips he held.
However, even after losing one-fifth, he still possessed chips worth several hundred million.
"Sir, would you like to play this?"
Suddenly, a Waitress approached him and asked.
Shen Yan assumed this Waitress, like the one he saw in the private room downstairs, was coming to ask for a tip.
He placed a few chips from his hand onto the Waitress's tray, waved his hand, and gestured for her to leave quickly.
"Sir, I'm not here for a tip. I'm here to ask if you want to participate in a game."
Hearing this, Shen Yan frowned and asked the Waitress, "Participate in what game?"
The Waitress smiled, "A very interesting game. If you are interested, I can lead the way for you."
After speaking, she turned and walked to the side.
Shen Yan didn't hesitate and followed immediately.
He didn't believe those people told him to play here just so he could run around with these chips.
If he guessed correctly, the reason this Waitress approached him was because those people downstairs had instructed her to.
Unknowingly, the Waitress led him to a relatively secluded area.
"I can't go in here, so you can just go in. Once you're inside, someone will explain the rules to you."
Hearing this, Shen Yan raised an eyebrow.
"Can I go in without bringing anything?"
The Waitress curled her lips and lightly tapped the chips in his hand with her finger.
"This is enough."
As soon as she finished speaking,
Shen Yan stopped asking questions, turned, and walked into the hidden space separated by a curtain.
As soon as he entered, he found that there were a great many people inside, even more than the number of people on the main casino floor.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a sea of people.
"Which one are you betting on?"
"I think this one looks good..."
"Don't even think about it. He participated last time, and he was useless, only managing to get third place!"
"Hahahaha, you sound so angry. Did you bet on him last time?"
"Tsk! Why bring up old wounds!"
The sounds of surrounding conversations constantly entered Shen Yan's ears.
As Shen Yan walked forward, he thought to himself, "Betting? Could it be horse racing?"
Just as he was thinking this, a man wearing a hat came up and struck up a conversation with him.
"First time here?"
Shen Yan didn't know if the person was staff or a guest, so he replied cautiously, "Yes."
The other person adjusted his hat, smiled at him, and said, "I am the boss here. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me."
The boss?
Shen Yan looked closely at the man in front of him.
The man was at least a head shorter than him, probably around 1.65 meters tall.
Because the light inside wasn't very good, coupled with the fact the man was wearing a hat, Shen Yan couldn't clearly see his features, only noticing that the man's lips were extremely red, as red as blood.
"What do you play here?"
The boss replied, "We play car racing here."
As soon as he finished speaking,
Shen Yan's eyes widened as he surveyed the surroundings.
Although the place was large, it was packed with people, yet there wasn't a single car in sight.
It didn't look like a place for car racing.
Seeing his look of surprise and doubt, the boss smiled at him again.
"The car racing I mentioned isn't the kind you're imagining. Forget it, explaining more won't be as direct as seeing it with your own eyes."
With that, he pulled Shen Yan into one of the rooms.
"Creak..."
The door was opened.
A small room of about fifty square meters appeared before their eyes.
This small room contained a bed, a sofa, food and drink, and ten very large electronic screens.
On the electronic screens, several cool racing cars were speeding wildly.
