Extraordinary Pedigree.

Chapter 297 Stud
Derry's black and white eyes flashed a special light at this time. When the blond young man in front of him was talking to him in the form of a transaction, he saw the price the other party gave him for the order.

[100 million [basic assets]! 】

The requirements of this order are also very simple, just use [Sphinx] to conduct some information. During the process of inquiry, the blond young man promised to follow the "Financial Law" throughout the inquiry.

"Don't rush to refuse. The 100 million order, according to your current partner's authority, can be divided into half at least. You also know that the economies of the countries in Terra have been very unstable recently, and black goat incidents have emerged endlessly. Currency Although there has not been a large-scale depreciation, and there have been no major problems in the two-way circulation of the extraordinary and the secular world, but now discerning people have felt the increasingly tense international situation and more and more extraordinary events, and smart people have already started [asset realization] .

[Basic Assets] and [Extraordinary Assets] have begun to tilt the balance leverage created by [Financial Street].

If you think about it, 50 [basic assets] can be obtained with just a nod of your head, and this is also a huge sum of money for a worker.Moreover, although you are a partner of a headhunting company, you are essentially a part-time job. "

The blond young man tapped his index finger rhythmically on the gaming table, with a bright smile on his handsome face, his words were obviously so sincere, but inside they were full of bewitching.

This kind of bewitchment is like a bait in the dark, attracting the greedy soul with its blurred charm, entangled it deeply, and induced him to make a decision.

Adélie Penguin took a big gulp of the cigar in his hand, and his long beak was puffing out mist. At this moment, he had already noticed what the blond young man might be doing with the [Sphinx], and the other party had a high probability will succeed.

"Mr. Derry, would you like to take a gamble? I heard that Adélie penguins are very lucky in gambling. I really want to see them."

Before Adelie Penguin could respond, Xia Xiu first invited Derry to gamble.

[Casino: [Van Helsing] has initiated a gambling invitation (Texas Hold'em) to you! 】

【Do you choose to accept? 】

【whether】

"Life is like gambling, Mr. Derry, you may not gamble, but you must not gamble."

The blond youth smiled and tossed two [1] chips, attracting Adélie Penguin's attention.

Derry thought about it, and he finally chose to accept it.

How could he be led by the nose by this young boy in front of him? From the time he entered the market and sat down naturally, to the top-up exchange for 150 million chips to show his financial strength, the blond young man in front of him has been in control of the situation and has been leading the invisible "" Potential".

Now, Delhi wants to break the opponent's "potential".

"Okay, take a gamble."

[The game is established! 】

When the game was established, [Financial Beast·Spades-10], who was wearing a gorgeous red dress, raised his right hand and held a pack of playing cards, and began to deal the cards in his hand. His clown-like face was already smiling. Here comes the flowers.

The process of poker is actually not complicated. In two-person Texas Hold'em, players will use a standard deck of 52 cards (remove the big and small ghosts).The basic rules and flow of the game are similar to the multiplayer game, but there will be some fine-tuning.

For example, the setting of the blinds (Small and Big Blinds) may need to be adjusted to keep the game going.

[Licensing stage! 】

Cheerful [Spades-10] began to deal out cards. At the beginning of poker, each player will get two private cards, also known as hand cards or pocket cards, which only they can see.

Two cards appeared in front of Xia Xiu, and he casually opened the cards in his hand.

With luck, I got [a pair] together at the beginning.

Xia Xiu's current hand is a pair of sevens of different suits, which he never expected.

The hand sizes in Texas Hold'em from strongest to weakest are as follows:
Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, One Pair, High Card.

The outcome of the game is determined by the card type: if two players have the same card type, then the card with the highest point and the card with the second highest point in the same card type will be compared to determine the winner.If all cards are the same, it is a tie.

Xia Xiu used to go fishing in [Financial Street]... Well, when he was entertaining, the biggest card he ever opened was the full house. As for straight flushes and royal straight flushes, he never opened them once.

[Start placing blind bets. 】

"Let me place the big blind, one hundred thousand." Xia Xiu pushed out part of the chips with a smile.

Blinds: In two-player Texas Hold'em, the small and big blinds are usually set.The small blind is paid by one player and the big blind is paid by another player.These blinds are the starting bets that ensure there are chips circulating in the game.During the blind stage, players are usually not allowed to bet all their chips (i.e. stud).Stud refers to betting all your chips in one round, which is not allowed in the blind stage.

In Texas Hold'em, the blind is an initial bet designed to ensure a certain amount of chips in the game and to provide a basis for subsequent bets.Usually, players can only choose to call (the same chips as the current bet amount), raise (increase the bet amount) or fold (abandon the current position) during the blind stage.

After the big blind is placed, it is the small blind, which is usually one-half of the big blind.

Derry glanced at the [Spades-10] dealt to him, and couldn't help but squeeze the face of the card.

The cards in his hand are pretty bad right now.

7 and 2 of different suits.This is Adélie Penguin's current hand.

And the reason for calling, of course, is that every gambler has a belief that the opponent's hand may be worse than his own, and these guys just like to pretend to be grand.

The probability science involved in poker games is not listed for the time being.

In two-player poker, it considers the psychological game more than the calculation of probability. For example, when the blind bet is placed, it is the first round of the game.

The blind note in the first round of the game involves a strategy commonly used in poker, [steal chicken].

[Stealing chicken] refers to raising or betting to win as much as possible from the blinds without having to show the hand.

This usually happens when the blinds are your turn to act and no other players call, by betting a relatively small amount in an attempt to get the other players to fold their hands and win the blinds.

The goal of [stealing chicken] is to take advantage of your opponent's caution and weak hands by raising or betting to capture the pot without showing your hand.If [steal the chicken successfully], you will increase your stack and get some benefits without real hand strength.

But now it's two-person poker, so it's impossible to [steal the chicken], because in two-person games, you usually need to rely more on your own card strength and strategy to compete for victory.

[The bet is complete, enter the flop! 】

Flop: After the first round of betting is over, the hole flop begins.

The dealer turns over three public cards and places them on the table. These cards are called [Flop] or [Community Cards], while the remaining two cards are turned over in the next two rounds.

Now, the three [community cards] that are turned over are:
[Spades·7], [Hearts·K], [diamond·2].

When the [community card] unfolded, the second round of competition had already begun.

In this world, gamblers will analyze by observing the expressions of the enemy, the cards in their hands, the chips they bet, etc., but in the casino of [Financial Street], it is even more interesting.

When the [community card] was turned over, both sides on the gambling table dishonestly launched a dark-faced fight at the same time.

dong dong dong-

Xia Xiu's hand on the gaming table was tapping the table rhythmically. At the same time as the tapping, a powerful memu element spread under the gaze of [Spades-10], and the huge ARad field instantly distorted In reality, three sharp and abnormal thinking weapons were shot at three different groups.

[Don Quixote Start! 】

[Orientation-Thinking Influence! ]
[Not directional - strong thinking influence! ]
[Not oriented-weak thinking influence! ]
[Orientation-Thinking Influence] This invisible and insubstantial thinking weapon directly bombarded several dishonest onlookers behind Xia Xiu, and these guys started to launch [Peeping Eye], [Thinking Reading], [Appearance withdrawal] waited for thaumaturgy to peek at his hand, and he directly attacked back without any politeness.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Among the few spectators sitting far away from Xia Xiu, some of their eyes suddenly became extremely dull, and then they slapped themselves under the surprised eyes of everyone.

This is [orientation-thinking influence], which triggers a contradictory thinking process, and guides the thinking subject to transfer this thinking contradiction to the concrete objects in his consciousness, so as to temporarily manipulate and order others.

And the one who was hit by another weapon called thinking weapon, [Undirected-Strong Thinking Affect] was the unlucky croupier, [Spades-10]. When he was seen by the thinking weapon, the perverted smile on his face instantly disappeared. stop.

With a snap, the happiness was gone, and he felt a little dizzy at the moment.

If it was [Financial Beast·Spades -10] in the casino capital of Edisi Federation, Xia Xiu might not dare to attack the opponent so blatantly, but now he is in [Fran Island], so he directly gave him Let's make a blow, so that the opponent's next dealing of cards is best not to be full of bad humor, just be a good card dealing machine honestly.

As for the last thinking weapon, [Undirected - weak thinking influence], it is naturally impossible to face Derry.

Casinos have casino rules. It is okay to use thaumaturgy, but it must comply with the rules. Some direct attacks are prohibited (it doesn’t matter if you attack financial monsters, you can’t die anyway), for example, you can’t blow your opponent’s head with a gun and win directly. victory.

This is a casino, not a Colosseum.

Xia Xiu's [Irregular-Weak Thinking Affect] was actually just aimed at the [Line-of-Sight Perspective] Memusic launched by Derry above the gaming table, and then detonated.

These two kinds of thaumaturgy can only be regarded as interference thaumaturgy. As long as it is not too excessive, the regular energy inside the casino will not stop it.

And the purpose of Xia Xiu's [Undirected-weak thinking influence] is not only to smash the Memussu in Delhi, but also has another effect.

The main ability of [non-directional-weak thinking influence] is weak mental influence, which causes the thinking subject to appear symptoms including laxity of consciousness, decreased concentration, confusion of thinking, and decreased ability to deal with problems.

At the moment when the thinking weapon exploded, the weak spiritual influence had spread, while the blond youth squinted his eyes, watching Derry's every move and everything about him like a hunter watching his prey.

Derry wasn't too surprised that his memesu was blown up. At this moment, his pupils were beaming with joy, and his gaze was unconsciously placed on [7 of Spades] and 2 of Diamonds.

This kind of joy actually disappeared very quickly, and the blond young man who had been tapping the gambling table with his index finger showed a smile.

The old gamblers are all actors, if they want to get something out of their expressions, they have to use some anti-defense magic skills to tear up their acting skills. The spread of thinking weapons can just make Xia Xiu gain the strength from the moment the opponent breaks the defense. the message you want.

dong dong dong-

Xia Xiu tapped the table rhythmically with his index finger.

[7 of spades], [2 of diamonds], the opponent made no secret of his gaze on these two cards.

The other two 7s are in my hand, that is to say, the other party is holding a [7 of clubs] and another 2 of a random suit in his hand.

The opponent can now form [two pairs] (two pairs of cards of the same rank, plus any card), and I am [three of a kind], if there are no accidents in the subsequent [turn] and [river] , there is a high probability that he will not be able to do any tricks.However, he should try to [bluff] me to win.

The thoughts in Xia Xiu's mind turned rapidly, and at this time the second round of betting began.

[The second round of betting starts! 】

"Boy, look at your smiling face, it looks like the cards should be quite good." Deli flicked the cards in his hand, and side-shot Xia Xiu.

"It's okay, I think this card can continue to raise, do you call?"

Xia Xiu smiled, then took out 20 chips and pushed them out.

Derry stared at the handsome face of the blond youth, wondering for a moment whether he was [bluffing] him or if he really had a hand.

"Follow!"

Derry also rolled out chips to keep pace with Xia Xiu.

[Turn card start! 】

Turn card: After the second round of betting ends, the dealer turns over the fourth [community card], which is called [turn card] or [fourth street].

[Block·K]
Deri looked at the card expressionlessly, and from the corner of his eye he kept observing the blond young man on the opposite side, but the smile on the other side's face did not change at all, and the index finger that was tapping the table was still the same as before. So full of rhythm, very stable.

[Three strips] + [a pair], one big and one small, really made a whole [gourd].Xia Xiu said happily in his heart.

Today is really a European.

[The third round of betting starts! 】

After the [turn] comes the third round of betting.

"Mr. Derry, do you want us to have a big game." Xia Xiu said to Derry with a smile.

"What?" Derry asked the blond young man suspiciously.

bang-

The blond young man pushed out all the chips, then spread out his hands, and showed a brilliant smile to Adélie Penguin who was holding the cards tightly.

"I stud, Mr. Derry, will you follow?"
