Inside Harlem’s Gold.
Connor and Jake sat opposite each other at the gambling table.
Yelena stood beside Connor, her face filled with nervousness.
Although Yelena looked bold and unrestrained on the surface, she had never been to a casino before or been in such a scene. Naturally, she was very nervous.
“Are the two of you ready?” the sexy dealer asked Connor and Jake with a smile.
“I’m ready. Let’s get started!” Jake couldn’t wait to win Connor, so he shouted anxiously.
“Mr…. Mr. McDonald, are you ready?” the beautiful dealer knew Connor’s identity, so she almost let it slip.
Connor quickly turned and glared at the beautiful dealer, then said indifferently, “1 am also ready…”
The dealer realized that she had said something wrong just now. She couldn’t help but cough and then looked at Connor apologetically.
The interaction between Connor and the dealer was very secretive, so Yelena and Jake did not notice anything unusual.
Jake carefully sized up the chips in front of Connor. He felt it would be meaningless to continue playing with Connor like this.
After all, if Connor was timid and placed very small bets, they could play for an entire night without a winner.
“Connor, if the two of us only compete in size, how should we bet?” Jake asked Connor with a smile.
“What do you mean by how should we bet?” Connor was stunned for a moment and asked Jake with a puzzled expression.
“Look, the situation is like this. When we place our bets, won’t it be unfair if I placed a million and you only placed ten thousand? There would be no way to continue playing, right?” Jake said to Connor with a smile.
“So what do you think is appropriate as a bet?” Connor asked indifferently.
“Let’s not bet in the first round. Whoever wins will decide how many chips to bet in the next round. If you win, you decide. If I win, I decide.” Jake was setting a trap for Connor.
Connor did not know much about baccarat, so he turned to look at Yelena and asked her softly, “What do you think of this?”
“All right, I think it’s quite fair…” Yelena nodded.
“All right, we’ll do as you say!” Connor replied to Jake, then turned to Yelena and asked, “Do you know how to play baccarat?”
“I know a little, but I haven’t played much…”
Yelena whispered back to Connor, then looked at Connor from head to toe. She shouted at Connor incredulously, “Bro, are you trying to tell me that you’ve never played baccarat before?”
Connor scratched his head awkwardly and said in a low voice,” Well, I used to play with my roommates, but I don’t remember how to play it now…”
“Bro, are you kidding me? Since you don’t even know how to play with the wheel, why didn’t you say so earlier? We can go play poker!” Yelena said, disappointed.
She felt that her one million dollars would go down the drain!
“Well, it’s still not too late for you to tell me how to play it now!” Connor said to Yelena with a smile.
“Phew…” Yelena looked at Connor and took a deep breath to calm herself. Then, she whispered, “Actually, the gameplay is quite simple. Everyone is dealt three cards, and the person closest to nine wins. If it exceeds nine, then you take a single digit. For example, if you get three sixes, your score is eighteen, so you take an eight. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Understood!” Connor chuckled and nodded.
“That’s right. If there are J, Qj K, or 10 in your hand, it will be counted as zero!” Yelena looked at Connor and added.
“Got it…” Connor looked at Yelena and nodded again.
“Bro, I am about to give up on you. If you had told me earlier that you didn’t know how to play baccarat, I wouldn’t have let you play…” Yelena hissed at Connor.
“I told you thought, but you did not believe me…” Connor felt misunderstood.
“Who knew you didn’t know how to play it at all? I thought you were pretending to be dumb to win and pretending to be low-key with me!” Yelena pouted and shouted.
“Girl, have you read too much fiction?” Connor snorted.

Yelena looked at Connor and didn’t know what to say.
Just as the two discussed how to play baccarat, the dealer had already begun to deal the cards!
First, everyone was given a card. Jake’s luck was indeed very good. The first two cards he got were six and three, meaning Jake had nine points!
Connor’s luck was very bad. He got a ten and a four. In this case, Connor’s points were three.
Of course, the most important third card had not been dealt yet.
If Connor could get a five, he would also have nine points!
Soon, the third card was dealt.
Jake got a king, while Connor got a three.
“I have nine points. You have seven points. You lose!” Jake said with a smile after seeing their cards.
“Almost!” Yelena said with some pity.
“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, I didn’t place a bet on the first round…”
Connor comforted Yelena softly, then looked at Jake and said, “According to the rules, the next bet is yours. How much are you prepared to bet?”
“We’re both men, so there’s no need to be so wishy-washy. I’ll play poker. One million!”
When Jake saw that his plan had succeeded, he did not hesitate and pushed all the chips before him to the middle of the table.
Luke, who was standing not far away, saw this. A strange look flashed in his eyes, but he didn’t say anything.
“Are you going to give me a hundred million bucks? Are you crazy?”
Of course, Connor didn’t have any reaction to this one million dollars. After all, one million dollars was nothing to Connor.
However, Yelena was very shocked because she did not expect Jake to place a bet so big.. Wasn’t he bullying Connor for the sake of it?
