《Monillas: Human Garbage》The Final Session
Advertisement
The final session begins!!! Antonio and Jose's fates lie to that one machine!!! That one machine who was "shuffling" the cards!!! After some minutes, the machine finally finished "shuffling" the cards and was dealt with the two of them two by two.
"This is the final session!!! Now, Jose!!! Flip those cards!!!"
The first five cards that he flipped was this:
9♦, 9♦, 5♠, J♥, 2♦
"One Pair, huh? It's basically the weakest, next to the High Hand. We can't rest our shoulders in something like this."
The second five cards were flipped and this is the result:
7♠, 3♠, 7♦, A♠, 10♦
"Another One Pairs here, but we've got an Ace and a 10, and a Jack at the first cards that were flipped... we can get a Royal Flush!!! Please... There should be a Queen and a King at the next five cards!!!"
Antonio prays!!! If the Royal Flush was once again completed, they could rest their shoulders into something else. They could rest their fates into that something and rely on it!!! Like a sturdy wall, they could rest their backs on!!! It's just assuring!!! If they had another Royal Flush, they could at least secure around, that's what they think!!!
Jose flipped another 5 cards and It resulted to:
8♥, 8♠, 4♦, 10♠, 6♦
"Another One Pair? What's with this luck!? But more importantly... we didn't get the Queen and the King!!! What terrible luck!?"
They didn't get it!!! The Royal Flush!!! A card that will secure them one victory was flushed away!!! Making it disappear, forever!!! But...!!! They could combine these cards and build something close to that!!! This is one of the perks of Three Hand Poker!!!
"Now, combine it!!!"
Jose combines it! He divided the pairs, straights, and whatever he could find!!! And arrived at these three shapes!!!

9♦, 9♦, 7♠, 7♦, J♥
8♥, 8♠, 10♠, 10♦, A♠
2♦, 3♠, 4♦, 5♠, 6♦
"This is the possible strongest hand we could make!! We could still make a Flush, but... in doing so, The Two Pairs would be destroyed. We have to make up with this!!! So what should we play? Since we have two Two Pairs, we should play one for the meantime to test things out..."
Jose nodded at Antonio's words and played the first Two Pairs!!! Antonio's logic makes sense!!! Some gamblers out there try to test things out by betting so low, or playing their hand even though It's still the first phase. Antonio seeks to protect this one million they have, so testing things out and playing their strongest hand will be the best choice for them. But...!!! Two Pairs are not the strongest!!! This anxiety is welling up inside Antonio!!!
As if an infection who grew larger and larger!!! Until It's hard for it heals on Its own!!! Until to the point a hospital is already needed!!! In short, Antonio was bothered by the fact that if Yanlei has a hand even stronger than Two Pairs... they're finished.
+++++
"So the bet is still like that?"
"1 Work Years..."
For a moment, Yanlei gave a smirk. Not just some ordinary smirk, a smirk you won't normally see. As if that smirk was from the devil itself.
"Raise... 10 Million Pesos!!!"
"10 Million Pesos!?"
An insane Raise!!! An amount that even Antonio himself didn't expect!!!
"Now, now, why don't you try and have a chicken race with me?"
A chicken race!!! A game where two race car drivers drive towards the cliff and the first one to step to the pedal or leave the car loses!!! A game of cowards and bravery!!! Entering Yanlei's chicken race would mean... Raising him!!! But not entering would mean... A Fold!!!

"That's right, there's no way we could raise him... Folding would be the right answer..."
Like a red bolt of lightning, it enters his head!!! He remembered it!!! A cruel ominous fact!!! Antonio just got faced with a cruel fact!!! All of a sudden, he was faced with a wall!!! The right wall says that he can't Raise and the left wall says that he can't Fold!!! Why!? Because if he folds... their last funds... the 1 Million Pesos will be gone!!! Engulfed, Disappear, Destroyed, Swallowed!!!
Like a mysterious mist, It's going to disappear!!! Now, Antonio needs to break one of these walls!!! Will he enter Yanlei's chicken race!? Or surrender his last million!?
