[Hm. Is it that Ryou really has a bunch of sixes, or is he bluffing? He's been hesitant to bluff so far...Atem's not mentioned a six once, so that's probably largely what Ryou's got, sixes and fours.

Atem does not have a single honest move he can make. Four sixes is pretty hard to believe; if Ryou calls him out, he'll lose. He'd have to bluff in a way Ryou would believe...but Ryou's probably guessed Atem doesn't have any sixes under his cup, since he brought the face down with his bet the first time Ryou brought them up. Ryou might think he has a one, maybe, but not a six.

He could guess four fives, but it doesn't sound like Ryou's got any. Does he guess four sixes, and trust that Ryou's got three on his own and believe Atem has a one? Or does he call Ryou a liar, when Ryou's been betting with his best guesses for most of the game?

His mouth twitches up, as if Ryou's just handed him something interesting.

Four fives.
