By the time they got to their sixth turn of the final round, Harold had calmed down and was less agitated. He knew he had lost the money, and fury would not improve the situation in any way, so he recollected himself to focus on the game.

If he wanted to win the final round, he had to give it his all.

When he scanned the tabletop, he noticed that there weren’t a lot of good cards and that he should’ve dealt with the situation during the previous turns. There were a few cards that he could use, but not enough to form a sequence. At the same time, he checked the card Eugene played, which seemed to be forming a pure sequence.

Slightly unnerved by the situation, he and Michael checked each other’s cards. It wasn’t until he knew that Michael had two cards that could be used to form a pure sequence that he felt more at ease.

You can spend all your time waiting to form a pure sequence. If I manage to form a winning set, I can salvage some of the losses I suffered earlier. Then, I’ll kick Michael away when we settle the accounts, which means I wouldn’t be losing that much tonight. I’ll just have to release Terrence and Eugene, and I’ll let Sawyer settle the rest on his own. I’ve looked after Michael for long enough. It’s time he repays his debt. My dear disciple, this will be your master’s final lesson for you. Never trust anyone while you’re gambling!

Harold had made up his mind to sacrifice his disciple to save himself.

After taking a look at his hand, Harold noticed that he now had a few cards of the same suits as well as three different suits.

Eugene would definitely stop me from forming a winning set. He’s currently passively waiting, but he’ll never be able to clear his cards in one shot. If he’s solely aiming for a pure sequence, I will definitely win.

Ascertained of the situation, Harold stopped worrying so much as he discarded his cards. Casper hadn’t even formed a sequence yet, so he was certain that he could win if he managed to form a winning set before the other two.

Meanwhile, Casper had no idea that the situation had changed and was still figuring that he might be able to form a nice sequence. However, as time went by, the more he felt that something was off. He had yet to combine any of the cards that could determine a definite win.

It wasn’t until then that he realized belatedly that someone was trying to form the ultimate winning set.

The heck?

His hands shuddered as he discarded a card because he noticed he had an Ace among his cards. If one of the players were trying to form a winning set, he would have the remaining three Aces.

A rough calculation indicated that that person could likely win a total of two hundred and seventy million.

“D*mn!” Casper shot up from his seat while looking at Eugene and Harold, knowing that either of the two would have a winning set.
