The latter nodded, "Qiao Qing."

Then, she added, "The minimum starting bid is $100M. How much do you want to bet?"

Di Qingrong had been told about the last $500M game. Therefore, he knew that the minimum starting bid for all future games will be $100M, and every raise will need to be at a minimum of $300M. 

But he heard that the previous games were all just dealers dealing each player seven cards.

Throughout the games, Qiao Qing had never shown any technical advantages. So, he felt like her wins were a result of luck and he didn't think much of it. 

He wanted the opponent to start off the bid. However, since Ming Shuo had warned him, he decided to be conservative, "Let's just do $100M to start."

Qiao Qing nodded, "Okay."

She then looked over to the dealer, "Deal."

The dealer dealt the first two cards and then dealt the first face-up card.
