Chapter 395 Finale of the VIP Club Tournament
“All-time champion of not the VIP club tournament, but the underground tournament?” Rudy asked.
“Yes. His name is Roid, and he even reached the VVIP underground tournament a few years ago. But after losing in the first round, he took a break from gambling for a while and finally returned this year,” Rusher stated.
“Are you implying that I will lose?” Rudy asked with a judging look on his face.
Rusher shrugged his shoulders and said, “There are high chances of him winning, yes.”
“Hmm~” Rudy hummed in amusement and said, “Then I guess you will be disappointed because I am going to win.”
Rusher looked at the clock on his wrist and said, “The final match is about to start. Let’s go.”
“You are coming too, brother?” Maria asked curiously.
“You have never been in the VIP club tournament, so you may not know this, but the dealer of the final match of the VIP club tournament of the casino is always the owner of the casino,” Rusher stated with a smile on his face.
‘He made a simple sentence so complicated,’ Rudy uttered inwardly.
“It’s a custom,” Rusher shortly added.
‘You should have started with that!’
Rudy, Maria, and Rusher made their way to the innermost room of the casino, where no one was ever allowed, not even the VIP club members. That room was used when high-ranking gamblers reserved it for gambling. And during the final match of the VIP club tournament.
No one was allowed in the room other than the participants. Only Rudy, Roid, and Rusher who was the dealer of the match. Even Maria wasn’t allowed to enter there and had to watch the game from a transparent wide window like everyone else.
However, Angelica was obviously getting a special treat and seat, which was Rudy’s lap.
Rudy and Roid sat in front of each other on their respective chairs, and Rusher stood between them alongside the table.
“What game would you like to play?” Rusher asked while glancing back and forth at Roid and Rudy.
“I am fine with anything,” Rudy replied.
He did to make himself look confident enough to waver Roid’s confidence.
Rusher turned to Roid and asked, “What about you, Roid?”
“I am also fine with anything. But let’s do rock paper scissors.”
‘Rock. Paper. Scissors? Is he being serious?’ Rudy uttered inwardly. ‘This is the final match of the VIP club tournament, and everything is at stake. Yet, this guy wants to play rock, paper, scissors?!’
“However, it won’t be the simple old rock, paper, scissors,” Roid added. “We will play that with a card. You and I will be given cards, and then we will draw each of them out at the same time.
The standard rules of rock, paper, and scissors are, of course, applied here too. Paper will beat the rock, the rock will beat the scissor, and the scissor will beat the paper.
The only twist is that neither of us knows what card we choose. It will depend solely on luck.”
Roid explained the game.
“How many rounds? Best out of three?” Rudy asked curiously.
“No. As long as the opponent runs out of money, or he gives up,” Roid responded. “Of course, if it ends up being a draw, we will keep playing.”
“Sounds good. But one more question, you said we will be given cards. So what if we never get a beating card? What if I get three papers while you get three scissors? Then I am bound to lose. How is your game going to justify that?” Rudy asked with a judging look on his face.
“An excellent question. To prevent that from happening, there will be a deck of cards on the side from where we will draw an extra card. However, that won’t be for free. One card will cost 10% of the betting amount.
For example, if you bet one million and I bet one million, the winner will win one million. Obviously. But if either of us takes one card from the deck, you will have to pay One hundred thousand for each card.”
“Hmm.”
“It’s fair now, right? The deck will obviously be shuffled in every round, and it will be on our luck if we draw a good card. However, it doesn’t really matter if you don’t know what card your opponent will play.”
“Again. It depends on luck.” Roid spread his arms and uttered, “I call this game a gamble of luck where the luckiest one wins.”
“Indeed,” Rudy nodded.
“What do you say, are you ready?” Roid asked.
Rudy looked at Rusher and asked, “Is this game valid?”
“Yeah. The rules check out everything, and this is not a new game. Just a variation on an old game. The thing is, the real rock, paper, scissor game was banned in the casino as some players were able to read the opponent’s next move by looking at their hands.
So they invented this new rock, paper, and scissor game based on the cards. But no one actually played it that much as it was heavily focused on one’s luck,” Rusher stated calmly.
“I see.”
“Are you okay with this game? You can add your own rule to this game if you want to. Or change the game entirely.”
“I have one last question.” Rudy raised his brow and asked, “How many times a player can draw an extra card from the deck?”
“You can add a limit to it or let it be unlimited draws,” Roid replied.
“I am up for this. This game sounds exhilarating.”
This game was the one true way for Rudy to confirm whether he held the ability of super luck or not. If he won without losing a single game, then he wouldn’t be able to deny the fact that he possessed super luck.
However, the theory would be invalid if he lost in the end. But, if we won almost all the rounds and lost a few, he thought he would be able to get away with the fact.
The results of this final game of the VIP club tournament were going to prove the magnanimity of his limitless powers and draw a path for him to the underworld.
