Chapter Seventy-Nine: World Series (5)

The competition began with the anticipation of the audience. All eyes are on the pinnacle of Texas Hold'em.

The Desert Eagle is a seasoned legend and a standard professional gambler who has used his skills to win his organization countless bankrolls. This guy, who usually rarely shows his head, hides his face behind the long hair of the shawl, and also wears reflective sunglasses that cover half of his face. He had a burly build, broad shoulders and a pair of large hands, and even the playing cards looked small in his hands.

Never speaking during the game, the Desert Eagle never showed any human emotion, the eagle's nose was like a knife, its face was cold, and from a distance, the whole person looked like a mummy, without a trace of vitality.

Wu Wei sat there quietly with a smile on his face, his expression was calm and calm, as if he was leisurely chatting with friends in a café. Despite being a young novice, Wu Wei stands out at the poker table, where people are not only attracted by his handsome appearance, but also by his dashing bearing. There is a stark contrast between the two opponents.

Soon after the start of the tournament, the Desert Eagle used its excellent hand skills and ferocious fighting to wear away Wuwei's chip lead little by little. He forced Wuwei into a critical situation, and after a few rounds, he was only two or three million behind Wuwei in terms of the amount of funds. In the final hand, the Desert Eagle called with only a million dollars, forcing Wu Wei to add to two million dollars. At the last minute, Desert Eagle staked about $15 million in cash.

The hearts of the whole audience also hung in the air with this move of the Desert Eagle, and people held their breath and watched nervously the development of the game. The hall of thousands of people suddenly became silent, and the sound of a needle dropped on the ground could be heard.

Wu Wei began to hesitate, and he calculated the odds of winning. The Desert Eagle may have a better hand than expected. In any case, the Desert Eagle's move is indeed very beautiful, and if Wu Wei does not call at this time, it will give the Desert Eagle a far ahead. On the other hand, if Wu Wei continues to call and wins, then he will be the winner of this World Series of Poker. Wu Wei estimates that his chances of winning are about one-in-three, and this is actually equivalent to victory in sight.

In poker, players bet or call in order to have the right to a showdown at the end of each hand. If a player doesn't bet or call, he must withdraw from the event for that hand. All the chips accumulated in the betting pool make up the win-loss payout for each showdown.

Whoever has the highest five-card hand wins all the money in the pot. Big cards are indeed enviable, but getting good cards is purely a matter of luck. The art of gambling is all about placing bets and understanding the bets of other players. A big bet may scare away players who don't realize they have the biggest hand, or it may simply be to make sure that your "full house" wins more.

In Texas Hold'em, each player is dealt with only two cards. The other three are picked from five community cards and combined with the cards in hand. The five community cards are shown on the table in rounds to increase the chances of a few rounds of raising. Until all the community cards are revealed, players can only guess how well their two hole cards match the five community cards. Big bets tend to come along the way, and of course, no one will be bigger than the stakes of Wu Wei and the Desert Eagle.

In the end, after a few minutes of intense thinking, Wu Wei decided to call, even if this one lost, Wu Wei still had three million in his hand, but in that case, he would not have the strength to fight against the Desert Eagle.

The Desert Eagle showed its hole cards, a king and a jack, while Wu Wei had a king and a nine.

The fifth community card is unwound at a suffocatingly slow pace. Wu Wei slightly overestimated his odds: it should be a quarter. He had to get a nine's in order to make a pair with his cards, and he couldn't make a jack for the Desert Eagle to make a pair.

Time seemed to pass quickly, and it seemed to be extremely long, and the last card was revealed: Nine o'clock! It's nine o'clock! Suddenly, Wuwei realized: From this moment on, he has become the new world gambling king!!

At this moment, the gambling hall was silent for more than ten seconds, and then the people who were pressed by the tension and held their breath reacted, and the entire casino hall was thunderous and boiled like a tsunami......

Yang Yan and Ah Lun rushed over desperately, Yang Yan actually hugged Wuwei's neck in front of everyone, and kissed him mercilessly. All the cameras captured this classic scene, and people were also moved by this romantic scene, what could be more enviable than getting love and wealth at the same time?

All eyes were on the victor, and no one noticed when the Desert Eagle had disappeared. The second fiasco was under the hands of Wu Wei, which made the fire of hatred in the chest of the Desert Eagle burn to the extreme, he was not willing to be defeated in the hands of this nobody, and at the moment of defeat, he made a poisonous oath that he must come to Wu Wei again to avenge the shame......

In the next few days, Wu Wei was surrounded by flowers and cameras, and became a household name overnight. But Wuwei's brain has always remained awake, he knows that he has just begun, Zhou Gongcai agreed to accept him as an apprentice, and there is still a lot to learn. Wu Wei decided to finish the work of being the spokesperson for the Imperial Palace Hotel Casino, and immediately followed the master to Europe, he wanted to start studying again, start a new life, and more importantly, there was a wish hidden in Wuwei's psychology, or a secret, he wanted to follow Zhou Gong to realize this wish!

However, what Wuwei did not expect was that greater danger awaited him.

Wu Wei won the World Series of Poker as he wished, but he did not have much joy, before that Wu Wei's heart was full of contradictions, he wanted to get this championship, because this is the main purpose of his coming to Las Vegas, and his heart was resisting it, because after winning the championship, he had to fulfill the contract signed with the Imperial Palace Casino, which he was very unwilling to do.

From the moment he won the championship, Wuwei felt that he had lost himself, and wherever he went, he was surrounded by reporters from all walks of life. For his safety, Tony personally led people to follow him every step of the way, and he really felt the pain of losing his freedom.

After the celebratory banquet, Wu Wei followed Ba to the president's office, knowing that he was about to start fulfilling his contract.

Yang Yan followed Wuwei without landing a step, afraid that he would run away, everyone else was blocked out of the office door, and Robert and Alun were invited by Tony to the reception room next door. Because everyone knows the relationship between Yang Yan and Wuwei, no one stops her.

In the spacious and luxurious office, there were only the three of them, Ba Dessen walked to his boss's desk, picked up a check from it, walked over with a smile and handed it to Wu Wei: "Mr. Jiang, according to the agreement we signed before, after you win the poker tournament, you will automatically become the image spokesperson of our Imperial Palace Hotel Casino, this is the first remuneration we pay you, five million US dollars, please take a look!"

Wuwei took the check, handed it to Yang Yan beside him without looking at it, and then said to Ba Zhisen: "Please rest assured, I will fulfill the relevant content of the contract, if you have any special requirements, please do not hesitate to ask." ”

Badeson sat on the sofa opposite, looked at him with satisfaction, and said: "We currently have two Imperial Palace Casinos, in addition to Las Vegas, there is also a branch in Vancouver, Canada. I'll let the manager over there know in advance. After everything is ready, just wait for Mr. Jiang to go. ”

Wuwei remembered that there was this clause in the contract, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, as long as you arrange all the activities, I will try my best to cooperate." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, I'm sure our cooperation will be a pleasure, haha......" Batson laughed happily, believing that his plan was perfect.
