"Six leopards? Twenty thousand? Old Man Hua was stunned, he didn't care at all when Fang Dalei shook the sieve cup just now, and now Fang Dalei asked him to press the chips on the six leopards, which made him very surprised, if he really hit, it would be fifty times.

"Alright, don't be verbose, hurry!" Fang Dalei urged, at this time, someone had already discovered the movement here, including Hirakawa Kenjiro, Hirakawa Kenjiro saw Fang Dalei's intention at the first time, and he rushed towards the sieve table.

Old Man Hua also reacted when he heard Fang Dalei's urging, and hurriedly bet 20,000 chips on the grid of the six leopards.

"Sell it and leave! Open! Three six leopards! When the old man Hua bet the chips on the three sixes, Fang Dalei rang the bell to stop betting, and at the same time opened the sieve cup, and reported the number of dice in the sieve cup, at this time, Kenjiro Hirakawa ran to the table panting, desperately watching the scene played by Fang Dalei and Old Man Hua.

As Fang Dalei handed one million chips to Old Man Hua, Old Man Hua's total number of chips rose to eight and a half million, just one more than Kenjiro Hirakawa, two or three hundred thousand more than him.

On the LED display, Mr. Hua and Kenjiro Hiragawa also happened to adjust the rankings, Mr. Hua rose to 16, and Kenjiro Hirakawa fell to 17th, which is the difference between heaven and hell.

A huge drop of cold sweat dripped down Kenjiro Hiragawa 's forehead, and his expression became a little trance-like, at this time, the bell rang for the end of the game, and the list of 16 people who had advanced was played on the LED screen, and the first three days of the World Gambling Championship were all over in the preliminary stage.

At the top of the preliminary round was a world No. 8 player named Abdullah? Hashim, a gambling king from Arabia, ended up with a total of 22 million in chips.

The second place went to Chris, and the third place went to Jean? Pierre. The fourth place is Shamanrov, Fang Dalei fell to 11th place in his own ranking because he gave Old Man Hua 1 million chips, while Old Man Hua is 16th.

Fang Dalei looked at the ranking on the LED screen, nodded with satisfaction, and then pulled Mr. Hua and said: "Old man, congratulations, you have entered the semi-finals, and now your ranking in the World Gambling Association will advance a lot." ”

This old man Hua was originally ranked in the top 30 in the world, and after the end of this competition, he was in the top 16.

Even if Mr. Hua is not young anymore. He was still happy in the face of the improved world ranking, but he still said modestly: "Tongxi, Tongxi, Da Lei, if you didn't help me this time, I wouldn't have entered the semifinals, haha, I don't have any illusions in this rematch, just let it be." ”

"Huh. Old man, this is not necessarily, the semi-match is a mahjong game, and mahjong is a thing invented by our ancestors. Fang Dalei said with a smile.

"Hey......" Fang Dalei didn't say that the ancestor invented mahjong, but it's okay. As soon as he said this, Old Man Hua sighed, "Da Lei, don't mention any old ancestors, there are many things invented by old ancestors." You see that football was invented by our ancestors, but the Chinese men's football team is so stinky that it is played! ”

"Uh...... Old man, you seem to have something to say? Fang Dalei listened to Old Man Hua's words. I immediately understood that there was something in his words.

"Da Lei, let me tell you, in the last World Mahjong Championship, the final winner was a German, and we Chinese people didn't even enter the semi-finals." Old Man Hua said.

"Isn't it......" Old Man Hua's words suddenly stunned Fang Dalei, "Aren't we Huaxia people the best at playing mahjong?" ”

"The mahjong you are talking about is the kind of little mahjong that Chinese people entertain themselves, which is still a little different from the national standard mahjong, and there are many masters who play mahjong well by foreigners." Old Man Hua shook his head and said, "Tomorrow, you play well, if I can draw a group with you, I will do my best to help you!" ”

After speaking, Old Man Hua patted Fang Dalei on the shoulder and pulled him to the side to participate in the draw ceremony for the semifinals.

When Fang Dalei passed by Kenjiro Hirakawa, he saw him lost his soul, and stepped forward and whispered: "If your little brother Danan Xiong encountered a problem yesterday, you solved it with him, and then the two of you entered today's game together, maybe you will be the one who will enter the top 16." Two fists are hard to beat four hands, you should understand this truth! ”

His words made Kenjiro Hirakawa raise his head, then lowered his head again, and left the gambling hall gloomily.

The semi-finals were originally to be played in three games, including sieve cups, poker and mahjong, but before the game, I don't know what the reason, the organizing committee communicated, and later decided to compress the schedule, change the competition system, and finally decided to rematch only mahjong games, four rounds to determine the winner, each player 10 million US dollars.

The draw for the semi-finals was conducted according to the rankings, and the 16 people were divided into four brackets, with the first to fourth place being the first bracket, the fifth to eighth place being the second bracket, the ninth to twelfth place being the third bracket, and the thirteenth to sixteenth place being the fourth bracket.

Each group has one player from the first to the fourth pot, and the strength of each group is as equal as possible, which is a bit like the draw format of the World Cup, ensuring that the seeded players do not appear in the same group to ensure the excitement of the subsequent matches.

The draw was jointly conducted by Abigail, the president of the World Gambling Association, and Sun Xudong, the boss of MGM.

The list of sixteen players who advanced to the semi-finals has been entered into the computer, Abigail pressed the enter key, and the list of players began to scroll, and when Sun Xudong pressed the enter key again, the sixteen players were assigned to four groups: A, B, C, and D.

Fang Dalei was assigned to Group A, the seeded player in Group A was Chris, Old Man Hua was assigned to Group B, and the seeded player in Group B was Abdullah, who ranked first in the preliminary round? Hashem, the seeded player in Group C, is Jean? Pierre, the seeded player in Group D is Shamanrov.

At this point, the competition in the preliminary stage is completely over, and a more brutal rematch stage will follow.

The semi-final stage of the tournament will be held tomorrow afternoon, or at 2 p.m., with 10 million chips per person, four rounds of mahjong, and the number of chips will be counted after the game, and the highest person in each group will advance. Originally, if you want to play three games, you have to play one day, but now you can play mahjong alone, and you can do it in one afternoon.

From the beginning of the stage to draw lots, although Sun Xudong tried his best to hide it, the pride in his heart was still overflowing.

Both of his players have advanced to the top 16, regardless of the final ranking, his MGM and fame have already started, if Fang Dalei and Old Man Hua can further advance to the top four or even win the gambling throne, his MGM will be completely popular.

It's exciting to think about it, a casino with a gambling king? What a sight it was. (To be continued......)
