Chapter 130: All In

Alex was not the only one that was left shocked by the total number of odds that they got. This number was just too shocking.

If it was someone that was placing a small bet, the profit would not be too big, despite the over 60 times returns.

But if someone placed a bet of the maximum stake of $10 million, they would be able to earn $690 million!

Such a huge amount of money, it was considerable for even the Morgan family and the big companies available within Brenton city.

While it might be true that it was not that easy for Alex and the others to take out $10 million, but even then, as long as they tried their best, they could do it.

And if all the money was used here, and they earned so much, they could easily change the way that the people within their families looked at them.

After all, for most of them here, they were usually looked down upon by most of the family members. After all, they were thought to be scoundrels, who only knew how to squander the money that was earned by the family.

They did not try to contribute to the growth of the family, instead, only thinking about using the money.

But if they suddenly earned such a huge amount of money, who would dare to look down on them?

Additionally, just with that huge amount, they would be able to do a lot of things with it. Just imagining what they could do with that money, it was so tempting.

But still, none of those who usually stayed around Alex were idiots. They might really like to enjoy themselves, but it was not to the extent that they usually wasted money, without some gains, physical or emotional.

They did not dare to think about spending $10 million just to place a bet, especially one with such high odds. In most scenarios, it would usually end with the money being lost.

Alex lifted his head as he looked at Michael, seeing that Michael was calm despite his exclamation. It seemed, Michael was not surprised by the odds at all.

“Michael, are you sure about this? The biggest someone has ever won was only with an odd of 9. That is only a legend right now. After all, it happened several years back.

But until now, nobody has ever won that big. Recently, the biggest someone has ever won was just with an odd of 4, which was one of the most rare situations.

After all, most of the people who usually place bets here are cautious. They don’t place chain bets like we have.” Raymond suddenly spoke up.

While he did not mind losing the money, he just felt that it would be a waste to throw the money away like this.

It would be better if there was a chance of winning. But with such high odds, the probability of winning was extremely low.

If he used the money that he had, he could easily enjoy himself. But unfortunately, it seemed that he would have to make someone’s pocket fatter than it already was.

Michael did not respond to that. After all, he had already said that it was either they trust him and bet big, or doubt him and not bet at all.

At the end of the day, it was their decision. If they wanted, they could make the bet, if not, they could just forget about it.

When he was met with silence in response to his words, Raymond could only shake his head. At the same time, he shrugged, deciding to go all in.

Alex was the same, also deciding to do as he had planned from the start.

Dalton did not hesitate either, as he placed the bet, choosing a stake that matched the current balance in his account.

As for the others, some of them hesitated, and decided not to bet. While others decided to bet, but only small amounts.

Only one of them, a lady with curled, pink hair went all in. She was from a big family within the city, but it was not on the same scale as the Morgan or the Walter families.

The net worth of her family was only over $800 million, not even having broken through the billion threshold.

So of course, the amount of money that she would receive in allowance was lower as compared to the others.

In real sense, she was actually the one from the poorest family among all those that had gathered within Alex’s group.

Lucky for her, within this group, there was nothing such as distinction between background. Instead, it was more about the interests.

She was lucky to join this group, because her friend was part of this group. This friend of hers was from a family that had assets slightly over a billion.

She herself usually received $10,000 in allowance every month. But as usual, being a spendthrift, by mid month, she would have already spent all the money that she would have gotten.

But, considering that August had just started, she had only used $2,000. Now, she had $8,000, and was willing to use it all to gamble.

As long as she could succeed, she could easily make over half a million. At that time, she would be able to enjoy herself as much as she wanted.

Back to Michael, he selected the highest possible stake, which was $10 million. If he won, he would be able to earn $690 million.

While this amount was not much to him, but still, at least he could give it to someone. As for who it was, Michael had already thought it through.

It just happened that when Michael selected the stake, Alex was looking over. When he saw that Michael was casually going to spend $10 million, he was quite shocked.

But thinking about Michael’s background, which allowed him to be able to acquire Sky Technologies, it seemed that $10 million wasn’t much.

For a moment, he felt quite envious. If he had also been born from such a family, how good would it be?

Still, he came out of his fantasies, deciding to place a bet as well. The current amount that he had on him amounted to $6.9 million.

This was an amount that he had saved for quite a while, which included not only the allowance that he got, but from some few businesses that he had in secret, and other sources of income.

This balance was the reason why he had the confidence of offering such a high price for Michael’s Koenigsegg Regera.

This time, he was going all out. Spending $6.9 million to place a bet. If it worked, he would be able to get over $476 million. But if he did not succeed, he would have to live a life of frugality for quite a while.

Despite understanding that he could lose all the money, he did not hesitate to place the bet.

Raymond also went all out. But, his balance was not as high as Alex’s, with him only having $2.3 million in his account at the moment.

Dalton also had $1.9 million, and he went all in.

After Michael placed the bet, he waited for the countdown so that the fight could start.

He was not the only one, considering that Alex and the others were quite nervous too. Even though they had already decisively decided to spend the money, it was not as if they were not nervous.

They were thinking about the slight probability of winning. If they really managed to win this time, how wonderful would it be?

That was especially for Jessica. This young lady, she was quite excited, as compared to the others that seemed to be nervous.

“Jessica, are you serious? You are going all in? If you spend all the money right now, won’t you be broke for the rest of the month?” Her friend could not help but ask.

“In life, sometimes, if you don’t take the risk, you will only continue being a mediocre. I want to make it big. So, I am risking everything that I have.

If I had any savings, I would have added it here. But unfortunately, I only have this amount. And, I can’t borrow from somewhere else, as I don’t really know where I can get the money to pay back in case I don’t win the bet.

While I can stay broke for quite a while, I am not willing to owe anyone a debt. So, I will place all my hopes here. If I can win, then great. If not, then so be it.” Jessica responded in a confident voice.

Despite her trying to act like a very confident lady, one with a slightly deep voice, her voice still came out quite cute.

Jessica’s words left her friend speechless for a moment. In the end, she said, “Okay then. Go all in. If you win, then don’t forget about me. But if you lose, I will support you for the rest of this month. How about that?”

“Deal! But let me tell you, if I win, don’t expect a 50% share of my winnings. I will just give you 10%.” Jessica responded as she nodded her head vigorously.

“Of course, no problem.” Her friend responded as she sighed.

If not for the fact that she really liked this cute girl, she would not have bothered. Additionally, Jessica was usually good to her, which was why they had become friends.

So, if she (Jessica) really ended up losing all the money that she had, she was willing to give her part of her allowance and savings, so that she could go through the month.

“Ladies and gentlemen, you have 10 seconds until the betting window is closed. Please, if you have not made your bet and you intend to do it, please do so before the window is closed.” The voice of the announcer once again boomed in the underground arena.
