Chapter 834
The chips were quickly placed in front of Colby, and the attendant asked, “Sir, have you ever played High–Low before?”
“Never have.”
“It’s quite simple, actually. You just bet on high or low and place your chips accordingly.”
Listening to the attendant’s explanation, Sophie asked with feigned curiosity, “So how do you determine what’s considered high and what’s low?”
“You see, we have three dice here. If the total sum of the dice is 11 or above, that’s high. If it’s 10 or below, that’s low.”
“It’s that simple?” Sophie turned to Colby and asked, “Honey, what do you think? Should we bet on high or low?”
Colby casually took out a stack of chips and placed them in Sophie’s hand, saying, “Pick one, doesn’t matter.”
“Um… I’ll go with high.” Sophie placed her chips on high.
The dealer exchanged a knowing look with the attendant and, understanding the cue, revealed the dice to indeed sum up to a high score.
Those around them who had bet on high collected their winnings with glee.
Sophie handed the winning chips to Colby, who then pulled out another stack and said, “Choose again.”
Feeling like she was on a roll, Sophie happily placed her chips on high once more, “Then I’ll stick with high.”
Sophie and Colby’s playful banter led the nearby attendant to believe they were definitely gambling novices. So, the attendant gave the dealer another look.
Soon, the dice were rolled again. This time, the result was low.
Sophie saw the two stacks of chips she had placed disappear.
Looking into Colby’s eyes, she saw nothing but amusement, “No worries, we have plenty more. Shall we keep betting high?”

“Sure, I’ll follow your lead, love.”
Sophie noticed the gleam in the attendant’s eye, looking as though he had just hooked a big fish.
Sophie wasn’t phased and soon placed all their chips on high.
Seeing the couple’s bold move, the attendant couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure? Do you want to go all in at once?”
“Why not? It’s not like we’re short on cash. Is there a rule against betting it all at once?”
Sophie feigned annoyance, prompting the attendant to quickly say, “Of course not, my apologies. Enjoy your game.”
The attendant then stepped aside.
Sophie and Colby exchanged glances, and Colby tapped the table lightly with his fingers, a seemingly casual gesture. However, Sophie noticed a hint of strategy in the ring on his finger.
In a little while, the dice were revealed, adding up to a total of twelve points!
“High! It’s high!”
The crowd was stunned. They knew the casino’s tricks and had bet on low, thinking they could make some easy money, only to lose it all in an instant!
“How could this…”
Even the dealer was shocked, and when she looked up to see the attendant’s reaction, his face had turned pale.
The attendant glared at the dealer, who was shaking nervously, trying to signal with a secret hand gesture that her handling had been steady and someone must have cheated!
Meanwhile, Sophie had already collected all the chips. That last bet had won them a billion, ten times what they had exchanged for chips.
“Honey, you’re amazing.” Sophie, feigning excitement, planted a kiss on Colby’s cheek.
