Everyone had their own tricks up their sleeves, and they could not wait to start the game. 1
Therefore, Linda clapped her hands as she greeted another woman, smiled, and said, "By the way, this is Lianna Rowe. She is also a close friend of mine. We are all not very good at gambling, so we should just start the game with the four of us now!"
Elaine also replied excitedly, "Okay, let's get started immediately. To be honest, my hands are getting itchy already!" 3
Linda smiled before she suggested, "Since today is the first time we are playing mahjong together with Sister Elaine, let's not start with too much capital. We will start with one thousand dollars, and we will cap it at sixty-four times, okay?"
"What?"
Elaine was a little shocked when she heard Linda’s words. She blurted out immediately, "A thousand dollars capped at sixty-four times?! This would eventually cost more than sixty thousand dollars at the end of the day! Do you usually play mahjong with such a big capital?" 3
Linda smiled before she waved her hand and said," Sister Elaine, is this considered a big capital? To be honest, this is the smallest I have ever played. When I
was playing with some of my friends the other day, we were playing at three thousand to five thousand dollars. We even played a few rounds of ten thousand dollars."
Then, Linda pointed at Hannah who was sitting next t o Elaine before she said, "The last time Hannah played a five thousand dollar game with me, I think I lost close to one million dollars that day! On the other hand, I think that Hannah won three hundred thousand dollars that night, right?" 1
Hannah hurriedly replied, "Oh, Sister Linda! You are just too rich. You cannot even remember how much money you lost that night?! You lost more than two million dollars that day! I won about five hundred thousand dollars, but the biggest winner that night was Gianna!"
At this time, the woman named Gianna smiled before she said, "Oh, I simply won a little more than a million dollars that night. That is not a lot of money to Sister Linda anyway!" 1
Linda smiled before she said, "To be completely honest, that small amount of money means nothing to me. My husband earns hundreds of millions of dollars every year, so he does not really mind if I lose thirty to fifty million dollars playing mahjong." 4
Elaine could not help but feel very excited when she heard Linda's words.
Linda was truly a fool! 3
Moreover, if Hannah was going to partner up with her, it would surely be an easy win for them! 1
Elaine quickly dispelled all of her doubts and worries from before as she smiled and said, "Okay then, Sister Linda. Let's start with one thousand dollars.”
