Chapter 214: A Game Within a Game
As Ye Han finished speaking, the audience erupted in excitement.
This is going to be interesting, this is going to be interesting, there's going to be a fight going on.
Before Lao Mo could even speak, the chief referee asked directly, "Mr. Ye, you say Mr. Lei cheated, do you have any evidence?"
That's right, Lao Mo's hand was three twos with a pair of Aces, which could beat Ye Han's three Kings.
Ye Han said that he had two Aces, and Lao Mo also had one that everyone saw. Normally, there shouldn't be a pair of Aces left.
However, Ye Han was the only one who had ever seen the two A's he received!
None of the spectators, including the referees, saw it. This is because Ye Han collected the cards covered.
Therefore, the referee panel would naturally rule in favor of Old Mo.
So here's the problem: Ye Han clearly saw those two Aces, so how could there be another pair of Aces? He's definitely not convinced!
Ye Han said angrily, "I just drew two ace cards from the hole, and he also drew a face-up ace once. We've already played three ace cards, how could he possibly still have a pair of ace cards? It's obvious he's cheating."
The chief referee said in a matter-of-fact manner, "Mr. Ye, I understand your feelings. You said you saw two Aces, but that's just what you said; we didn't see them."
"Yeah, yeah, you said you got two aces, and then you got two aces? I could have said you got two kings, so if you have three kings now, wouldn't that be cheating too?"
Someone in the audience shouted loudly.
At this moment, all the spectators, including the judges, stood on Old Mo's side.
You can't just say it out loud without us seeing it.
Ye Han felt completely unwell. He shouted, "I want to have my license checked!"
Old Mo finally spoke: "Mr. Ye, according to casino rules, if you accuse me of cheating, I need to have my cards checked. If it turns out I didn't cheat, my hand will be chopped off. Are you sure you want to have my cards checked?"
Ye Han said loudly, "No, you've all misunderstood. I'm checking the cards that have been played. I'm sure there are three Aces among the cards that have been played."
The chief referee said, "For the sake of fairness, requesting to check the cards that have been played is permitted. There's no need to cut off someone's hand."
The cards that have been played can indeed be checked. But Old Mo's approval is also required.
Old Mo said, "Chief Referee, what if we don't find three aces among the cards that have been played? What then?"
The chief referee decisively said, "It's very simple. If there are only two Aces among the cards played, and there are no duplicate Aces."
In this hand, our judging panel will unanimously declare Mr. Lei the winner. Mr. Ye, Mr. Lei, do you have any questions?
Without hesitation, Ye Han immediately replied, "I agree."
Old Mo argued forcefully, "This isn't fair. I was going to win this hand anyway, why should I take such a risk?"
The chief referee stated, "The opponent has concerns, which is a reasonable request."
Old Mo asked, "What if we find three aces?"
"this……"
The chief referee was speechless.
Yeah, why would anyone take such a risk? If they really found three Aces, wouldn't that mean Old Mo cheated?
The consequences of cheating are dire.
Therefore, this is unfair.
Ye Han knew that on the surface he seemed to be making a fuss, so he quickly said, "Mr. Lei, if we find three aces, I won't consider you cheating, but you've lost this hand."
Old Mo sneered, "Do you think I'm stupid? I clearly won the hand, so why do you say that the Ace was played? Why do you want to check the cards?"
Mr. Ye, if you can't handle losing, you shouldn't have played in the first place. Now that you've lost, you're trying to cheat. Do you really think I'm easy to bully?
At this moment, Lei Luo had no choice but to step in. He stood up and went straight to the center of the field.
"Mr. Lei is right. Mr. Ye, what you're doing is a bit cheating. If my friend says he had a King-low card, does that mean your three Kings are invalid?"
Lei Luo spoke with conviction, and everyone agreed with him.
Ye Han gritted his teeth and said, "But I already said beforehand that I did indeed have two aces as my hole cards. Now you've brought out another pair of aces, how am I supposed to accept this?"
The matter seems to have reached a dead end. You both have your reasons, and neither of you can reach an agreement.
At this point, Old Mo said, "Mr. Ye, your request to have my cards checked and for me to lose is definitely unreasonable. I certainly won't agree to it. Unless you can also pay the corresponding price, I demand that the referee panel declare me the winner right now."
Ye Han retorted angrily, "If you have nothing to hide, what are you afraid of if they check your license?"
Old Mo shrugged and said, "This isn't about whether I have something to hide. I was already winning, so why should your words increase my risk?"
Ye Han gritted his teeth and said, "Then what do you want?"
Old Mo said, "It's simple! If you want to check the cards, you have to pay the corresponding price. Otherwise, please let the referees declare me the winner."
Old Mo's argument is reasonable and well-founded. Why should I win? I already had the winning hand, so why do I need to have my cards checked to be considered a winner? That's just stupid.
The referee panel was also in a dilemma; in that case, Old Mo was indeed at a disadvantage.
The chief referee thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Ye, what the other side said makes sense. No one has seen those two aces you mentioned. If the other side doesn't agree, you really can't check the cards."
"hehe……"
Ye Han sneered, looking at Lao Mo: "Are you feeling guilty?"
Old Mo said nonchalantly, "I was just protecting my rights. I didn't expect that someone as a gambling master like you would resort to cheating."
Ye Han gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Today, I have to check this card. Tell me, what price are you going to pay? If you still refuse to check the card, then it proves you have something to hide."
Old Mo smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, if you're going to cheat like this, then there's no point. But judging from your expression, you definitely won't be satisfied if I don't let you investigate."
"Fine, I'll give you a chance. Hand over your casino shares as collateral, and I'll let you check this license."
Ye Han's expression changed, and he asked, "What do you mean?"
Old Mo said, "It's simple. Use your shares as collateral. If it turns out I didn't cheat, your shares are mine."
"If there really are three aces inside, you win this round. This one is worth two billion; I'm betting two billion on your small share. Whether you dare to bet or not is up to you."
Gaa...
Ye Han was stunned.
On the field, everyone fell silent.
Old Mo's request was very reasonable.
That's two billion! You think you can just play an ace because you say so, or check the cards because you say so?
If there's no consequence, and everyone does it this way, everyone will say you've already played your cards, then what fairness is there?
That's right, everyone in the room now thinks Ye Han is cheating. Only Ye Han knows that he isn't.
Which is more important, the casino shares or two billion?
From today's perspective, everyone would choose two billion.
After all, the current valuation of the Pujin Casino is only two billion.
The problem now lies with Ye Han.
If I win this bet, it will be two billion.
But if he loses, Ye Han will lose everything.
Old Mo sat down and took out a cigar.
Ye Zimei immediately took out a lighter and lit it for him.
Old Mo took a deep breath, exhaled, and sneered repeatedly.
This was his scheme within a scheme. Everything was planned to swindle him out of his casino shares.
Now, it's up to this gambling master to make his choice.
