Living in the Hong Kong Film World

Chapter 129 Psychiatrist Baker
"Hey! Who will win if you buy it?"

"That's no use thinking about it? Of course it's Jiro Miyamoto of RB! The latest issue of the player analysis manual calls him a human computer! It says that he can memorize everyone's cards, which is very good!"

"There is also the American player David, who is nicknamed Tianyan in the manual. It is said that no one can make a thousand tricks in front of his eyes. In the first round of the competition, he saw through the Korean players' thousand skills and directly challenged him. The organizer reported and disqualified the opponent, and I bought 1 yuan for him to enter the semi-finals."

"These two are so-so! I bought Frank from Singapore. I have seen his shadowless hand with my own eyes. It is more than miraculous! It is simply miraculous!"

"What is the shadowless hand? Have you seen the Australian player Baker? He is the one nicknamed Radar. He is a psychiatrist. It is said that he can guess what card you are holding from your expression and movements. How can you lose? ? Tell me, how can I lose this!"

……

All the gambling halls in Lisboa and the small casinos in the surrounding areas have stopped their usual activities, and the gamblers crowded in front of a table to discuss.

Outside the venue, there were more than a dozen phones lined up, with a commissioner standing in front of each, who were responsible for transmitting the situation in the venue to the various casinos and the surrounding small casinos.

On the other end of the phone, there are also relevant commissioners waiting quietly, waiting for the live news from the other end of the phone, and then the croupier will restore the game in the casino for the gamblers to bet.

"The contestants have entered!"

In a casino, the telephone commissioner suddenly called out, and the chaotic gamblers fell silent.

Immediately afterwards, eight men with numbers on their chests walked in.

Seeing these eight people, the gamblers suddenly burst into laughter.

"Haha! Barbecued Pork Boy, why don't you act like a shadowless hand?"

"Ah Jun, if you pretend to be a human computer, you must be able to memorize cards!"

"Who is the masked killer Fan Debiao? Take off the mask and see!"

"The belly is so big! It doesn't look like it! Haha!"

……

In order to attract gamblers, these eight people were paid by the casino owner to play the role of eight players.

Hearing the shouts of the gamblers, the fat man in the middle wearing the same white mask as Feinan pushed the mask up to his forehead, revealing the fat face of the casino owner Shui Chelin.

"You bastards, do you care if I have a big belly?"

Shuichelin scolded with a smile: "Hurry up if you want to place a bet!"

"Haha! Alright! Then I'll buy Boss Lin and win!"

"It's the Masked Killer who wins!"

"They're all the same! Buy 1000 yuan!"

"1000 yuan? So stingy?"

"It's not bad to have 1000 yuan, stop talking nonsense, the game is about to begin!"

-

In the venue on the other side, Fei Nan and other eight players came to the gambling table in the center of the venue and sat down respectively.

The lights above the head are bright, shining on the gaming table, showing every detail, ten meters around the gaming table is the audience area, full of seats.

The eight contestants looked at each other's competitors, but none of them had the intention of speaking first.

Up to now, there is no weak player, each has unique skills, and everyone may fall into the opponent's trap while opening his mouth first.

Baker has been observing all the players since he came to the table, from their body language, subtle expressions, analysis of each other's personality, habits and so on.

The Russian player known as "Platinum Finger" Ivanov seemed a little nervous, and his whole body was a little tense. He deliberately avoided his sight and stared at the table... No, he was staring at himself shadow.

The shadow represents fear, crime, he is afraid.

afraid of what?
The shadow is the place where the light does not reach, the light represents the judgment, and the judgment is watching. What he is afraid of is the eyes, and what he is afraid of is being found guilty...

Well!He is an old trick, and we will have to pay attention to his tactics later...

Baker's eyes moved, and even a trivial movement or expression could not escape his eyes. He peeled it off, analyzed and identified it, and extracted useful information.

He doesn't know much about gambling, he relies on his professional knowledge.

He didn't like to gamble, either. What he liked was watching his opponents at the table.

People who are keen on gambling tables always have strong traces of desire, the instinct that wants to control but cannot be restrained is very vivid.

This is very helpful for him to improve his professional level.

He can't completely guess a person, he just builds a model with enough information, analyzes the character of the simulated character, and then makes further speculations.

It's hard, and it's not always possible to guess correctly, but he still enjoys it, it's a game for him.

In his opinion, the "Golden Chief" Babu from South Africa is the most determined among all the players, perhaps because of his belief.

He was playing with a bracelet made of the bones of an unknown creature in his hand, and his face was also painted. He was one of the only two players who did not wear a formal suit, and the other was RB player Jiro Miyamoto.

His body did not move extraneously, his eyes were firm, and he was sure that he would win.

This is a state of self-hypnosis. In this state, the influence of the outside world on him will become very low, and his mentality will not fluctuate violently.

You must know that mentality and psychological quality have a great influence on a Texas Hold'em player.

It seems that he believes that he has obtained what he called the "blessing" of God. If he loses, will he shake his faith?

Baker believes that after the game, he can have more contact with the "golden chief", he may be a case of great research value...

After observing for a while, Baker has established the character models of seven opponents in his mind. With the continuous addition, update, and iteration of information, he will know more and more about these opponents.

Given enough time to observe and understand, he believed that he could fully grasp and predict all the actions and even thoughts of these people.

but not now.

Among the seven opponents, he thought the most difficult to deal with was the "Lucky Boy" Zuo Songxing, and the "Mask Killer" Fan Debiao.

He believed that Zuo Songxing didn't come to the present by luck, but it was strange that he defeated two very strong players in a row, and one of them even beat Baker head-on at the gambling table.

That Zuo Songxing doesn't seem to know any advanced gambling skills, but he always wins easily.

Moreover, judging from the information revealed by his whole body, he is very confident in himself, and subconsciously, he does not regard other players, including Baker himself, as competitors.

The only person he regarded as a competitor was the masked man.

Baker even suspected that Van der Biao put on the mask deliberately against him.

The information that can be analyzed through facial expressions far surpasses the analysis of movements and behaviors. The mask seems to have turned Baker into a cripple walking on one leg.

However, challenges are interesting, and Baker also wants to know why this mysterious Mr. Fan has such a strong self-confidence, which can even be called the self-confidence of winning.

"At the beginning of this round, American player David is the dealer, please place a blind bet."

Baker's position was the small blind. He took out $10 in chips and placed them on the table.

The first round begins.
