The other tourists stopped betting wisely, as they all knew Tony Stark.
This is not the point. The point is to watch the big guy and the poor little brother betting against each other. This is very interesting, much more interesting than just standing by and watching.
The bodyguard continued to deal cards.
Two minutes later, Tony got impatient: "You're only betting five hundred dollars at a time. How long do you want to play?"
After several rounds of games between him and Luke, the number of wins and losses was basically the same, and the number of chips in front of them did not change much.
Luke: "Is there a rule here that if you bet 500 dollars, you are not eligible to go on stage?"
Tony was speechless.
A bet of five hundred dollars is considered a large bet in Las Vegas, and most tourists bet less than this amount.
Although Tony is rich, he is not rich enough to arbitrarily make the rules of the casino.
Tony: "This is too slow. Let's play fast, one million at a time."
Luke shook his head: "I don't have that much money."
Tony: "Then bet all the money you have."
Luke chuckled: "Why should I agree? If I leave the table now, I can take away more than 20,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to my salary for half a year."
Tony thought about it and decided to increase the bet: "One for two. You bet 100,000 chips, and I'll give you 200,000."
Luke thought for a moment and asked, "But there has to be a limit, right? I'm very busy and can't stay here with you all night. After all, you can't lose all your money."
Everyone was also complaining in their hearts: You tell a billionaire that you are busy
But as the saying goes, the poor run their legs off, while the rich just open their mouths.
This guy is really asking for trouble by daring to say such things to Tony Stark!
Tony's face turned a little dark: What do you mean you can't lose all? Are you sure you will win
"Ten minutes then." Tony said.
Luke shook his head again. "Ten minutes, just the two of us? Your bodyguard should deal the cards faster, at least five to ten rounds. Your requirement is that I bet everything every time. If I lose once, I lose everything. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Tony was speechless again. He just said it casually. He just wanted to deal with Luke as soon as possible. Otherwise, how could he not think of this? "So how do you want to do it?"
Luke: "One million. Once I win more than one million, this bet will be over."
Tony thought about it this time. If Luke had a net worth of tens of thousands, then three or five consecutive wins would be enough to end the gambling game. That was indeed a much greater chance than ten consecutive wins.
"It's decided." Tony made the decision. He was a young policeman who had just worked for half a year, and he was too lazy to check how much money the policeman had.
Luke took out his credit card and threw it on the table. He waved to the lobby manager next to him and said, "I will now make it clear in public that the money on this card is used for a one-time bet with Mr. Tony Stark. Take the card and let's get started. We can calculate the amount after the bet is over. How about that?"
The lobby manager did not agree immediately, but looked at Tony Stark over there.
This is a bet, so of course both parties have to agree to it. In this kind of bet, the hotel just takes a cut.
Tony nodded impatiently: "That's it, I'm not afraid that he will default on his debt."
The lobby manager bowed slightly, took the credit card and stepped away.
Then, the bodyguard deals the cards.
Luke looked at the king on the card, smiled secretly, put his hands on the bottom card, seemed to glance at it sideways, and stood up directly: "Okay, I win."
As he spoke, he walked over to the hall manager and said, "Please transfer all the chips and winnings to my card, and then send the card over. Also, remember to issue me a certificate of income, ok?"
This certificate must be issued because the money won this time is not small. If I don't take it back to report, I'm afraid I will be investigated to death by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"What?" The lobby manager was confused.
Tony Stark frowned: "What are you doing?"
Luke smiled and pointed at his cards. "Your open cards are not any of A, K, Q, J, or 10, so you can't even have a tie. You can look at my cards yourself. Anyway, you are the one who lost the money. If you want to deny it, that's up to you."
Tony's face was filled with black lines: How can I refuse to pay you if you don't have a little money
He signaled to the bodyguard leader Happy, and the fat bodyguard went over and revealed Luke's trump card.
An A!
Blackjack! Double the payout!
The spectators on the sidelines all exclaimed in surprise: What a coincidence!
In the bet between the super-rich man and the poor boy, Black Jack came out for the first time, which was a slap in Tony Stark's face.
Tony's face looked as if he had eaten shit. He looked at the hall manager and said, "Check how much money is in his card."
The hall manager quickly signaled to the security guard nearby to bring a POS machine and swiped it. He was also surprised.
He didn't say anything, but handed the POS machine to Happy, the head bodyguard.
Happy took a look at the number and said "Fuck" in his heart, then he gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand in front of Tony Stark.
Tony took a look and couldn't help but curse: "Where the hell did he get more than 600,000 US dollars?"
The spectators nearby exclaimed again, and soon someone calculated how much money Luke had won.
Although it is said that Americans are not good at math, there are many people who are good at math when they come to the Las Vegas casino, and even top students from MIT have come here to make money.
There are not many people in the world who are better at math than MIT's top students.
When the onlookers did the math, they became envious and jealous: This guy won at least 2.4 million US dollars!
In fact, the amount on Luke's card was more than 675,000 US dollars, plus Luke had more than 30,000 US dollars on the table, so the bet would be more than 1.4 million.
If Black Jack comes out, Tony has to pay double.
In other words, Luke won a little over 2.8 million US dollars in one go.
bullshxt! Tony cursed inwardly, no longer in the mood to play, and got up and left.
"Mr. Stark, this betting money..." the hall manager reminded.
Tony didn't even look at him, and casually flicked his fingers at the bodyguard who was dealing the cards. The bodyguard immediately went to the lobby manager and said, "I'll take care of it. Go over there and transfer the money."
Tony looked at the figure of someone disappearing behind a bunch of slot machines in the distance, feeling depressed and dissatisfied: Damn, this seems to be the second time I've been cheated? Is this guy toxic? Can he cheat me every time
Luke's face was all smiles.
It's really interesting that Tony Stark was able to cheat a lot of money this time.
Money is not important. Luke didn't take the two million dollars too seriously. He raided the gang's den near USC a few days ago and confiscated nearly half a million US dollars in cash in six raids.
This money cannot be used openly, but it can be used to purchase special materials and parts from covert channels, but one must be careful to conceal one's identity.
As for winning Tony Stark's money, it was an indescribable feeling of satisfaction.
Moreover, he won money from Tony Stark, and no one would suspect that the two had some kind of py deal.
Tony's power makes it impossible for him to use the young detective.
If he really had something to say, he would speak to the people at the highest level of the police station, and he wouldn't even have to speak in person.
