The daily life of American drama detective

Chapter 64 The Dog Plays Poker

"India is really a magical country. It can make this kind of miraculous ointment. If you have a chance, you must visit it."

Phoebe touched Rachel's face and sighed.

"better not."

Chuck shook his head: "Whether it's a woman or an animal protectionist, I don't recommend you go."

Phoebe still wanted to ask why, but was interrupted by Monica, who scooped up a lot of mashed potatoes for her: "Eat your specially ordered mashed potatoes with peas and onions!"

"Tastes great."

Phoebe didn't bother to ask Chuck, took a sip, and immediately gave a thumbs up.

When preparing a big meal tonight, she, Joey and Rose, everyone proposed a recipe for the potato dish, and they all succeeded in pretending to be pitiful, so tonight one dish Monica insisted on following everyone's recipe. I made three different dishes to my liking.

If she still dared to say no, she was worried that Monica would lose her temper.

A table of big meals was eaten up by Joey, who seemed to be reincarnated from starvation, gobbled it up.

Joey, who was leaning there with his stomach out, showed an unusually satisfied smile.

"Let's play cards."

Chandler suggested with a smile.

"play cards?"

The girls looked at him strangely: "With us?"

In their impression, Chandler and the others never brought them to play cards. They asked once, and the answer they got made them very unhappy, because they looked down on them and thought girls couldn't play cards at all.

The competitive MAX Monica even invited Aunt Gambler to teach them how to play poker, but the result was still not ideal, and she was often ridiculed by Ross and the others.

It is really the most vivid display of the absence of relatives and friends on the poker table.

Now Chandler offered to play cards, which surprised them all.

"count."

Chandler pointed to the people sitting around the dining table, and reminded: "Didn't you find it very appropriate?"

"Dogs play poker!"

Monica blurted out.

In the painting that Chuck gave her, there are 7 dogs playing poker, and there are six of their old friends, plus one Chuck, which happens to be seven.

"I'm not a dog!"

Ross was dissatisfied.

"You do."

Chandler looked at Rose's right hand teasingly.

Ross: "..."

This meme is endless, isn't it!
"Chuck, are you playing?"

Monica asked.

"Of course he plays! Otherwise, why would he give you a picture of dogs playing poker, and there are 7 dogs in the picture?"

Chandler then said: "We have to appreciate Chuck's dry humor with our hearts."

Saying that, he smiled ambiguously at Monica.

Monica suddenly thought of something, and she lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at Chuck, a little unsure if Chuck had something to do with cold humor.

"I'm going to get the cards."

Phoebe raised her hands.

"Or forget it."

Chuck shook his head: "The painting of dogs playing poker is not my original painting. The oil painting I copied was originally 7 dogs. It's just a coincidence."

"You can play if you want."

When Ross heard this, he immediately changed his mind: "It's no fun to play fake games. If you want to play, you can play the real ones. You can use money to exchange chips."

He is a good casino player, and like his younger sister Monica, he is also competitive, coupled with his stingy nature, he will never recognize his relatives at the poker table, and he will not show mercy when facing the goddess Rachel.

Before, I was a little guilty and didn't dare to play with Chuck, but now that Chuck didn't want to play, I suddenly felt that I could do it.

"Stop playing with money."

Chuck still shook his head: "Talking about money hurts feelings."

"Small bets are fun, just for fun, and don't bet too much!"

Ross was happy, and provocatively said: "Why, you dare not?"

Chuck looks at Monica.

"Just play, I don't have any financial disputes with him."

Monica understood Chuck's eyes, and immediately said that she had nothing to do with her brother, and that she would not hurt her relationship with Chuck if she won all of his brother.

"Yes, win him all! He is the most arrogant!"

Rachel yelled too.

"Then play?"

Chuck looks at Ross.

"come!"

Ross is a little overwhelmed by the attitude of the goddess Rachel.

He's got to beat Chuck at some point!
"Come on then."

Chuck nodded, got up and left the table, and sat on the sofa.

"You guys play first, I'll clean up!"

Monica looked at the feast of leftovers on the table and immediately started cleaning up.

"That's better."

Phoebe clapped her hands and applauded: "Chuck represents Monica and forms a team with us to represent the girls' team and challenge your boys' team again."

"Is it my hallucination?"

Chandler laughed at himself: "Are you sure I didn't form a team with you on behalf of Monica to represent the girls' team?"

In the eyes of outsiders, especially girls, he has a unique temperament, the kind that female colleagues often want to introduce boyfriends to him.

Chuck couldn't help but glance at him.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's get started!"

Ross has already entered the gambling saint mode, and greeted: "Everyone will exchange 50 US dollars of chips first, and they can apply for more chips after losing. Is there any problem?"

"Is $50 too much?"

Joey hesitated.

Rachel and Phoebe also nodded.

There is no way, they are poor ghosts among old friends, and the jobs of the three are not very formal, and they are all flexible employees according to classification.

"That's too much? Don't spoil the fun during the holidays."

Rose, who was born in a middle-class family and had a good job, didn't understand the mood of the three of them at all, and urged them directly.

"It's okay, let's play."

Chuck nodded to Rachel and Phoebe: "I'll lend it to you first, and return it to me when I win."

As he said that, he took out 150 dollars and exchanged chips for Rachel and Phoebe.

The chips are on the table, and the game officially begins.

Rose took the cards and looked directly at Chuck.

In tonight's game, the protagonists are actually the two of them.

After a while, his mood was not right, because no matter how carefully he calculated, the chips in his hand continued to drill towards Chuck.

Phoebe and Rachel really didn't have the talent to play cards. They lost early and started cheering for Chuck from left to right. Ross became more and more angry.

When another round of cards started, he narrowed his eyes and forcibly held back his trembling heart, but he got a pair of cards that were almost sure to win.

"I stud."

Chuck pushed all the chips in front of him.

"..."

Ross looked at the few chips in front of him, then at the big cards in his hand, and said angrily, "You're cheating!"

This isn't the first time Chuck has done this.

When Chuck is far ahead of him in chips, he studs without looking at the cards.

Before, his cards were not good enough, and he didn't dare to play like this with Chuck, but when he really got a good card, he found that he didn't have enough chips to even do stud.

This is completely oppressing people with money!

"If you're really that confident, you can apply to increase your stake."

Chuck is fair.

"I want to add!"

Ross looked at the big cards in his hand, and couldn't believe that Chuck, who didn't even look at the cards, was even bigger than him, so naturally he didn't want to just give up.

"Almost all the chips went to Chuck, almost $300."

Rachel laughed, "Do you have that much cash?"

"I can sign checks."

Ross naturally didn't have so much cash, so he took out the checkbook from his pocket, wrote a $300 check on the special checkbook with dinosaurs printed on it, tore it off and slapped it on the table: "Is this okay?"
