Chapter 130: Baker, the Psychiatrist

"Hey, who wins when you buy it?"

"Then you still need to think about it? Of course it's RB's Miyamotoro! The latest issue of the player analysis manual is called a human meat computer! It says that he can remember everyone's cards, which is very powerful!"

"There is also the American player David, the manual gave him the nickname Tianyan, it is said that no one can make a thousand in front of his eyes, in the first round of the game, he saw through the Korean player's thousand skills, directly reported to the organizer, canceled the other party's qualification, I bought 10,000 yuan for him to enter the semi-finals. ”

"These two are so-so! I bought Singapore's Frank, I've seen his shadowless hand with my own eyes, it's not just magical! It's just magical!"

"What is a shadowless hand? Do you see the Australian player Baker? It's the one nicknamed Radar, he's a psychiatrist by profession, and he is said to be able to guess what cards you're holding from your expressions and movements, how do you lose? Tell me, how do you lose!"

……

The various gambling halls in Lisboa and the surrounding small casinos have stopped the hot projects of the past, and gamblers have crowded in front of a table to discuss.

Outside the venue, there were more than a dozen telephones lined up, and in front of each stood a commissioner, who was responsible for transmitting the situation in the venue to the various gambling halls and the surrounding small casinos.

On the other end of the phone, there are also relevant commissioners waiting quietly, waiting for the news from the other end of the phone to send back the on-site news, and then the dealer will restore the cards in the venue in the casino for gamblers to place bets.

"The contestants have entered!"

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

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

Seeing these eight people, the gamblers immediately burst out laughing.

"Haha! barbecued pork boy, even if you are so decrepit, you are also a shadowless hand?"

"Ah Jun, you have to be able to remember cards if you pretend to be a human flesh computer!"

"Who is the mask killer Fan Debiao? take off the mask and take a look!"

"My belly is so big!

……

These eight people were hired by the casino owner to play eight players in order to attract gamblers.

Hearing the shouts of the gamblers, the fat man in the middle, wearing the same white mask as Fernan, slammed the mask to his head, revealing the fat face of the casino owner, Watermill Lin.

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

Watermill Lin scolded with a smile: "If you want to bet, hurry up!"

"Haha! Okay! Then I'll buy Boss Lin to win!"

"It's the Mask Killer who wins!"

"It's all the same! buy a thousand!"

"A thousand, so stingy?"

"It's good to have a thousand dollars, less nonsense, the gamble 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.

The overhead lights are bright, shining on the table, which is full of seats and a circle of 10 meters away around the table.

The eight contestants looked at each other, but none of them meant to speak first.

Up to now, there are no weak hands, each has its own tricks, and everyone may fall into the trap of the opponent while opening their mouth to test 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 personalities, habits, etc.

Ivanov, the Russian player known as "Platinum Finger", looked a little nervous, his whole body was a little tense, and he deliberately avoided his gaze and stared at the table...... No, he was staring at his own shadow.

The shadow represents fear, crime, and he is afraid.

Afraid of what?

The shadow is the place where the light does not shine, the light represents the judgment, the judgment is the gaze, he is afraid of the gaze, he is afraid of being found guilty......

He's an old man, and he'll have to pay attention to his methods later......

Beck's gaze moved, and not a single indiscernible movement or expression could escape his eyes, from which he peeled back the cocoon, analyzed and discerned, and extracted useful information.

He doesn't know how to gamble, he relies on his expertise.

He also doesn't like to gamble money, what he likes is to watch his opponents at the table.

People who are keen on gambling tables always have strong traces of desire, the instinct to control but can't hold back, very vivid.

This is very helpful for him to improve his business.

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

It's hard, and it's not always accurate, but he still enjoys it, and it's a game for him.

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

He was one of only two players who didn't wear a formal suit, the other being RB player Miyamotoro.

There was no superfluous movement in his body, his gaze was determined, and he was sure that he would win.

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

You know, mentality and mental quality have a big impact on a Texas Hold'em player.

It seems that he believes that he has received what he calls the "blessings" of God, and if he loses, will he shake his faith because of this?

Baker thinks he could get in touch with the "Golden Chief" after the game, as he could be a valuable case to study......

After some observation, Baker has built up a character model of seven opponents in his mind, and as information is constantly added, updated, and iterated, he will get to know these opponents more and more.

As long as he is given enough time to observe and understand, he believes that he can fully grasp and predict all the actions and even thoughts of these people.

But not now.

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

He believed that Zuo Songxing did not rely on luck to get to where he is now, but strangely, he defeated two very strong players in a row, one of whom had beaten Baker head-on at the table.

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

And, judging from the information he has revealed throughout himself, he has a lot of confidence in himself, and subconsciously doesn't see other fighters, including Baker himself, as competitors.

The only person he considered a rival was the man in the mask.

Baker even had a slight suspicion that Van der Biao had deliberately targeted himself before putting on the mask.

The information that can be analyzed through facial expressions goes far beyond the analysis of movement and behavior, and the mask seems to have turned Baker into a cripple who walks on one foot.

However, there are challenges that 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 victory.

"At the beginning of this round, the American player David is the dealer, please place blinds. ”

Baker, who was in the small blind, pulled out $100,000 in chips and placed them on the table.

The first round begins.
