Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy

Chapter 44

【Oh no, I can't watch anymore.】

【Is anyone counting how much money Sister Yue just bet?】

【I really don't understand why no one stopped her. My poor civilian eyes just can't comprehend it.】

【Don't be sour, earlier folks. This whole thing is clearly the fault of the person who pulled Sister Yue to the table!!】

【Today's livestream was very educational. It taught us not to gamble by letting Sister Yue lose everything, hahahaha.】

【There's something wrong with you! How dare you mock Sister Yue! We're kicking you out of the Little Sister Yue fan club!】

After Shen Yue pushed all her chips forward, the dealer looked even more delighted.

In his eyes, this was just Shen Yue losing repeatedly and finally flipping out in frustration.

Betting everything on one last desperate gamble was every gambler's fantasy.

Even a little girl like her was no exception, after losing so many rounds.

He continued dealing, already imagining how this cute and proper young lady would soon be crying and throwing a tantrum.

After fleecing her, he could take a nice long break.

"Little sister, before I reveal the cards, I want to ask - have you figured out how you're going to pay what you owe?"

Shen Yue blinked, as if pondering why this guy would say such a thing.

"You see, even though we're just playing a game, you know these chips represent real money. I gave you the chips on credit earlier, but now that you've lost them all, you have to pay me back. " As the dealer spoke, he glanced at Shen Shuangyi, planning to make a scene if they didn't pay up.

Respectable folks like them cared most about face, but he was different. He didn't care about face, just money.

Just then, Shen Yue softly replied, enunciating each word clearly: "I. Won."

The dealer's rambling ceased abruptly as he glanced down at Shen Yue's unturned cards, finding kids so annoying to gamble with.

But for the money, he swallowed his impatience and looked to Shen Shuangyi's side. "Hey, you're the adult here, right? Come keep an eye on this, don't welsh on the debt. You're filming a show, right? Whatever you do, don't stiff me! I'm telling you!"

The dealer flipped over Shen Yue's concealed cards himself, and his enormous grin froze instantly.

He stared wide-eyed at the cards he had just revealed in front of Shen Yue, completely dumbfounded as he cried out, "How is this possible?!"

This was simply impossible, nothing like this had ever happened before.

"Blackjack on the first deal pays 2.5x. I won," said Shen Yue, eyeing the utterly flabbergasted dealer.

At this moment, everyone who witnessed this - the audience, the camera crew, Jiang Shiwen and the others - found it hard to believe. Shen Yue had actually turned the whole game around in one hand.

If it was just dumb luck, they might not be so shocked. But thinking back on Shen Yue's actions - suddenly going all in, declaring her win without even checking her cards - it was clear that...

Shen Yue had known she would win for sure before the hand even started.

【Holy crap, Sister Yue is so badass! You'll always be my sis!!】

【Ugh, looks like I can only watch Sister Yue lounge around again today.】

【Your Yue: Works for 10 minutes, rests for half a day.】

【Dear customer, the Little Sister Yue you ordered has secured funding and will now go offline.】

【So how did she know? She's so freaking awesome! This can't be a TV drama right? Wait, was it scripted?】

【It can't be scripted. Everyone knows Big Sister Shen tries to get Sister Yue active every day, there's no way she'd give her money.】

【Good point above, don't forget, Sister Yue is probably, maybe, could be, a genius.】

"How, I don't understand, this is impossible!"

The dealer cried out in shock, grabbing Shen Yue's two cards to examine them. Of course they were fine - these were the cards he had dealt.

Shen Yue yawned as the dealer inspected the cards and table, already thinking about going back to bed for a nap.

Seeing the dealer so flustered amused Jiang Shiwen. He leaned in and jeered, "Didn't you say this was a game of chance, boss? How can it be impossible now? Don't tell me... you're a sore loser? No way, right? A boss who cheats, how shameful!"

"This can't happen! This round doesn't count! You must have cheated, I refuse to accept this!"

The dealer shouted as he backed away, abandoning his chips and equipment to make a run for it.

Shen Shuangyi immediately grasped the situation and blocked the dealer's escape. "A loss is a loss."

"Impossible, you're cheating! I don't acknowledge this!"

Shen Shuangyi knew reasoning with a scoundrel was futile. He had to corner the guy with facts and make him admit defeat.

And truthfully, he was also a bit curious how Shen Yue had won.

Just a bit curious.

"Shen Yue, explain to him how you won just now."

Shen Yue thought for a moment, feeling more tired, and yawned as she replied, "It was... card counting."

"Card counting? How does that work?" Jiang Shiwen was intrigued and leaned in close, only to get smacked painfully by a startled Shen Yue.

Jiang Shiwen: Ouch.

Shen Yue rubbed her sore hand after the slap and explained, "You can assign point values to the cards - 2 through 6 are worth 1 point, 10s are -1, 7 through 9 are 0. Based on the points of the revealed cards, you can calculate the probability of the remaining cards. Then use math to determine the likelihood of the next cards..."

Shen Yue paused, then continued, "And the boss used a perfect shuffle, which makes it even easier to count cards."

Jiang Shiwen: ?

What's this feeling when knowledge flies through your brain without leaving a trace?

Hearing Shen Yue's explanation, the dealer froze.

Dealers like him weren't unfamiliar with card counting tricks, but calculating the odds in your head without any tools? That was beyond human ability!

Even more shocking was this girl identifying his shuffle technique!

This was...this was expert level!

He had earned a lot of under-the-table cash from his shuffle skills, but never in his career had he seen such blatant yet legitimate cheating as Shen Yue's method!

Jiang Shiwen was baffled. "Sister Yue? You can really calculate it all in your head?"

"Read more books."

Gambling was popular in prison, where there was even an entire cell block ranked by gambling skills.

There, the cheating methods were endless. If you couldn't see through others' tricks, if you couldn't discreetly control the game, relying on luck alone, you'd never win long-term.

"Shen Yue, for ordinary people, it's best to avoid gambling altogether," said Big Sister sagely.

Shen Yue agreed. As an ordinary person, she should steer clear of gambling her whole life.

Time to take the money and go back to bed.

Shen Yue wobbled over to the dealer and held out her little hand for the cash.

But the dealer had done a 180 from his earlier rascal attitude. He now gazed at Shen Yue with worship, bellowing eagerly, "Master! Master, take me as your disciple!"

Shen Yue: ?

This guy is crazy!
