The Extra's Harem In Dead End Game

Chapter 139: A Bet with No Escape [1]

There were four tables in the dedicated dice room.

Dan walked over to one of them.

"Hey, who do we have here?"

"Decided to clock in after a while, huh?"

The two people sitting at the table recognized him: Snake Eyes and Odd Ear. They were a pair, like flies, always looking to swindle easy marks out of their money.

Of course, they were just small fry.

They knew Dan, but they weren't partners. They were more like competitors, each trying to scam the easy marks first.

"Hello, everyone." Dan greeted them.

"Just in time; two seats are opening up here. It would be perfect if you two sat down, right?" Snake Eyes said with a sly smile.

"That sounds good." Odd Ear nodded in agreement.

They had immediately sensed that Dan was an easy mark. They were pressuring him to share the good fortune, not to hog it all to himself.

"Hmm, I'm fine with it. Are you?" Dan accepted the offer without much thought.

He was a real player, confident he could sweep the stakes at the crucial moment if he chose to. Of course, he would subtly control the game.

"I don't mind. There's no other empty seat anyway."

"Ha-ha, then shall we go?"

They sat down at the table with Snake Eyes and Odd Ear.

As soon as Dan sat down, he boldly placed all his chips next to him—a showy gesture, something that naive marks often do.

He saw Snake Eyes and Odd Ear trying not to laugh.

They must have thought an easy prey had just rolled in.

'Enjoy it as much as you want.' Dan also let out a laugh. They would never understand what that laugh meant.

"You're a young guy, but you seem to have made it big." Snake Eyes flattered him.

Flattering the mark was a very basic tactic for them.

"Making money is the easiest thing in the world."

Dan played the part of an overconfident mark.

"If there's such an easy way, I'd like to learn it too."

"Not everyone can do it."

"Ha-ha, of course. You're quite something."

Snake Eyes played along just right. Dan couldn't help but laugh because it was so transparent.

"Alright, enough chit-chat; let's start the game. That's what we're here for, right?" Odd Ear changed the subject.

"Is the basic rule fine?"

The basic rule was the simplest: roll three dice in a wooden cup, and the person with the highest number takes the pot.

"Crap, damn it." Dan grimaced and groaned.

The large amount of chips in front of him had vanished at some point.

As the game went on, they had all gone to the hustlers, especially to Snake Eyes and Odd Ear.

Dan hadn't won much yet.

He seemed to be expecting that Dan still had a lot of money left. If Dan got angry and threw in even that money, he would seriously start targeting it.

He was indeed a con artist of a higher order.

"Oh dear, it seems our young friend has lost his luck this time. What will you do? Can you continue?" Snake Eyes subtly provoked him.

He was trying to make Dan angry to keep him gambling. Of course, Dan would oblige.

"Tch, it's all luck anyway. Let's keep going."

Dan turned his head towards the staff.

"Hey, come here."

The staff approached.

"What can I do for you?"

"Chip exchange. Quick."

Dan pulled out a check instead of gold this time.

At that moment, he could feel everyone's eyes widen in shock. It couldn't be helped.

The check he had taken out was worth a whopping 1,000 gold.

"How much would you like?"

"All of it, of course."

"All of it?"

"Yes. Hurry up and exchange it."

"Ah, right away."

The staff hurried off.

Of course, they had to. The chip exchange fee alone was a considerable amount.

Gulp....

Someone swallowed their saliva.

The faces of the hustlers were drenched in undeniable excitement. They must have thought they were lucky to have met such an incredible mark.

"Here you are." Soon, the staff brought a huge amount of chips. It was very prompt service.

"Thanks." Dan turned his attention back to the gambling table.

Now it was time to show them who was in control here.

After all I couldn't let these fuckers to rob me, now can I?
