Chapter 1042 Respiratory Obstruction (Part 2)

"Hey~ It looks like I'm lucky tonight."

Sitting opposite Fangran, Gianandegu pretended to be grateful and shrugged with a K in his hand, but anyone present except Fangran could hear his self-mockery.

After all, there is no muzzle position +1, nor median position +1 or +2. In a gambling game with only four people,

The advantages brought by the banker position are far less obvious than at the nine-max table.

After confirming that Gianandegu, who had the biggest card among the four, was the banker in the first round, Elise pressed a button similar to a chip and pushed it in front of him.

Then the casino employee opposite him looked at Fangran, nodded slightly when he saw that Fangran didn't express anything, and then pushed out 1/4 of the chips.

"After the dealer makes the decision, the left side of the dealer's position becomes the small blind and the big blind for mandatory betting, ensuring that the gambling game has a bottom bet, and everyone will not directly fold because of bad cards, resulting in meaningless rounds,"

"The big blind is twice the small blind. Seeing that you didn't express your opinion, he bet 50,000 US dollars based on 1% of tonight's bet size of 10 million."

Banker, big blind, small blind, forced bet...

Fangran, who was still wondering why the casino employee looked at him, heard Adeline's explanation and felt all kinds of information confused in his mind.

"So Master, you should bet double his chips now."

Completely confused and unable to understand, Fangran had no choice but to listen to her calm and cold voice and follow the instructions, taking out the bet from the hill-like pile of chips in front of him,

Then he looked at the number with a denomination of 10,000, holding half of the 20 coins in his hand, and the blind bet of a total of 100,000 US dollars left his hand.

Seeing that all the big and small blind bets had been placed, the bunny girl dealer in front of the gambling table began to shuffle the cards with neat sounds and professional standards.

A piece of playing cards seemed to come alive, with beautiful patterns flying from one hand to the other like those in the movie, and finally turned back into a stack of square playing cards.

With the skilled and tacit cooperation with the other bunny girl, the cards slid across the green table, and the two covered cards were dealt to everyone clockwise as before.

Texas Hold'em, including the final showdown, has a total of five rounds.

"Ha, it's the muzzle of a gun right from the start."

Keeping his eyes admiring the curvy buttocks of the bunny girl next to him that was half covered in black, Iber also followed Gyanandegu's example and teased himself,

Different from the "perfect game" like Go, this game is an "imperfect game" with unequal information.

A lot of its information is hidden in the dark, requiring you to guess and infer, and to watch people's actions. You play more with your opponent than with your trump card.

Inferring information from every word and every small action of the opponent to provide a basis for the next action to be taken is more important than the cards in hand.

Whether a good hand is all-in or folded often depends on where the player is sitting.

Therefore, under this rule, the first action cannot observe the position of other players, so it is naturally the most unfavorable position, called the 'gun point'.

"fold."

At gunpoint,

It was 3 and abandoned very coolly, without any hesitation.

With an expression that did not reveal any information, Jianandegu glanced at the casino employees and Fangran in front of him after reading his cards.

Then he smiled and took out a handful of chips from the mountain of chips in front of him and pushed them in front of him.

"raise."

Without the casualness of the big guys and maintaining a working poker face, the member sent by the casino just took out the chips that were one and a half times the small blind.

"Call."

Finally it was Fangran's turn,

Poker, green tweed, hills of chips, empty casino halls, other people's English words in my ears, all these things hit my mind like a wave,

Although it was the big blind position that made the last move, I had no idea at all.

"Now it's your turn, Master. You have three options - follow, raise, or fold. Please make your decision based on your judgment of the cards, your opponent, and the situation,"

"And if you have already placed a big blind this round, if you don't raise, you only need to call again with twice the same amount of chips,"

"If a raise is made, the raise is the difference between the big blind and the first player's raise, which is also twice the same amount of chips."

Like a drowning person lost in the waves of the sea, listening to Adeline's cold voice like a rope, Fangran looked at his own cards that he didn't know were good or bad,

The words he wanted to give up were stuck in his throat, and he struggled for a second with a slight frown on his face. He picked up the chips with some difficulty and said his choice:

"and."

As Adeline truthfully relayed the decision, the first round ended,

The second round begins,

What was dealt to the center of the gambling table by the bunny girl were three face-up community cards. In Texas Hold'em, which combines hole cards with community cards to create powerful combinations to compete in this game,

This round of huge variables is also called a flop.

Iber, who had withdrawn from this round, was observing the two opponents besides his old acquaintance with great interest. After seeing the community card,

As the first casino employee to act from this round, he seemed to make a judgment based on his own hole cards and the community cards.

"Check."

"Starting from this round, in addition to the previous three choices, if you feel that your cards have hope of winning, Master, but are not enough to bear the risk of more chips,"

"You can also choose to check and pass the action to the next player."

Standing next to Fangran, Adeline explained quietly, relaying his slight words that seemed quite laborious the next second.

"Pass..."

Gianandegu, who raised in the last round, did not raise again to increase the follow-up chips and expand the chip pot, but just placed the chips normally.

Then in the third round, another community card is dealt to the center of the gaming table.

It is possible for someone to hear the desired card that constitutes the best hand, adding further variables to the round known as the trun.

"Pass."

"The process of this round is the same as the previous round. Master, you still face the four choices, and the next round will be the same."

And he didn't pay attention to the casino employee at all. It seemed that he could only hear Adeline's voice, and Fangran only made a sound as his chest rose and fell slightly.

"Pass....."

Seeing that neither of them bet, Gianandegu smiled and shrugged and checked as well.

Then in the fourth round, the fifth community card is dealt,

The last card, called the river, creates a pair among the community cards.

"bet."

Listening to the casino employee's choice, without Adeline's voice, Fangran looked at all five community cards in the center of the gaming table.

While breathing slowly, he used his only understanding of Texas Hold'em poker from film and television works to make a judgment.

"Pass......"

As for the banker who made the last move, after observing the two of them and being surprised by the other party's reaction, Gianandegu also made a decision.

Then all betting rounds end and the fifth showdown phase begins,

"The cards from high to low are: royal flush, straight flush, four of a kind, full house, flush, straight, three of a kind, two pair, one pair, high card,"

"Master, if you can't remember, please feel free to ask me."

The showdown stage was carried out under Adeline's soft and calm instructions. All the hole cards were revealed, and three of the community cards were selected and combined together.

The final winner was indeed Gianandegu, whose trump card was a pair of kings.

"It looks like you are really lucky."

Repeating his initial self-mockery, Gianandegu watched with a smile as a waiter pushed all the chips in this round in front of him.

A total of $500,000 in chips from the casino employee and Fangran.

And watching the waiter take away the chips in front of him, he could look at the bright lights of Las Vegas at night,

Did I just lose over one million...

The feeling of unreality was far stronger than when I had relied on my ability to 'win' the money. Fangran was only slightly unrealistically swirling around this thought at this moment.

It takes about twenty or thirty years for an ordinary family to save a lot of money, and a lot of money is tied to the house, so many love ends up losing to the actual amount of money.

Just now I lost to him normally, but it only took a few minutes...

A very uncomfortable feeling spread,

But forcing it down, Fangran kept reminding himself of the purpose of coming here and the source of the money.

Then in the second game, he lost 100,000 chips. In the third game, he lost 100,000 chips.

Then the fourth game,

This time he lost a total of 400,000 chips.

Poker cards, lights, gaming tables, bunny girls, green tweed, hills of chips, empty casino halls, and other people’s English words in my ears!

After saying the rules, Adeline stopped speaking. Being among these, she felt like she was lost in the wave of heavy rain.

Obviously he only lost 800,000, which was nothing compared to the huge sum of 15 million in front of him, but looking at the pile of chips in front of him, he thought about losing them all.

The discomfort expanded, and Fangran suddenly felt that his breathing was blocked...
