Chapter 141 A Complete Victory

The poker game had just started, and Catherine had no clue about the basic rules. It was Branden who stepped in to give her a crash course.

Seeing this scene, Triston and Aidan couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Their eyes narrowed in delight.

It was said that beginners had beginner’s luck. And there was an aura of fortune around them. But when it came to Catherine, that saying didn’t work.

The first hand of cards that Catherine received made Branden feel bad. It was so chaotic. There was not even a pair in sight. She was entirely reliant on the player before her for decent cards.

Unfortunately for Catherine, the player before her was Aidan. He was notorious for tightening the screws on the player after him. Catherine could hardly manage to get good cards from his hand.

Instead of having Catherine wait for good cards from his hand, it might be quicker for Catherine to rely on her luck to win. In the first round, Catherine lost, and Triston won. In the second round, Catherine lost again, and Aidan won this time.

Both of the two had decent cards. When the third round began, Triston started to rearrange the cards and couldn’t resist teasing Catherine. He asked, “Catherine, how many chips do you have left?”

Catherine reached out to check her chips. After two rounds, she had only one chip left. Two thousand chips had dwindled to one. Losing this last one would mean she had utterly lost this round of poker.
