Chapter 014: Master Duel

Mai Kou Chang took them to Chinatown and recommended Chinese food.

It is said that Shi Hu has eaten Western food for two weeks, and it is either beef or lettuce all day long, no matter how delicious things are, he will get tired of repeating them dozens of times, and when he hears that there is authentic Chinese food, he feels that this kid can do things. Mars doesn't care, a big mouth, long live when you fill your stomach.

Compared with the prosperous Chinatowns of Los Angeles and San Francisco, the scale of the casino is somewhat pitiful, with a small number of oriental elements, the text is mainly in traditional Chinese, the car stops directly in front of the store, and Michael recommends a Cantonese restaurant that he often eats. Shi Hu doesn't pick either, the emphasis is on changing the taste.

White-cut chicken, roast goose, roast suckling pig and seafood soup...... Listening to it makes me greedy. Touching his bulging belly, he sighed that this is the life that people should live, and the perennial eating habits determine that Shi Hu prefers Chinese food. Mars, who tasted Chinese food for the first time, felt a little greasy, but also very satisfied.

After a full meal and a full meal, we set off again.

"MGM, go get something." Shi Hu said to Michael, who was driving.

"No problem." Michael is now poor and white, and can only sell some information to Shi Hu for money. At present, he plans to follow him and continue to look for targets after earning enough equipment money for another job...... Shi Hu didn't agree with his mentality, but everyone has their own ambitions, so let him go.

Michael, who was driving, asked, "God of Gamblers, now go back and continue blackjack?" ”

"Go back to the guest room and work." Shi Hu was full and didn't want to speak.

But Michael, unlike Mars, felt uncomfortable without opening his mouth for a few minutes: "Take what?" Guy? Oh...... Suits, the God of Gamblers is to wear suits. ”

"God of Gamblers, why haven't I seen you in a suit? What about chocolate? ”

"Big man, can you shut him up?" Shi Hu turned around and asked Mars.

"Simple." Mars put his hand with Michael's big face in front and covered his mouth, this guy struggled, but where is Mars's opponent?

"Hahaha." Shi Hu looked at Fengyun with a smile, "Be careful to drive, if you crash, you will give me a lifetime of work." ”

The car drove to the door of the MGM Grand Hotel, asked Michael to wait in the car, and Shi Hu and Mars returned to the room. Michael was bored and listening, and after about ten minutes, they reappeared, noticing that Mars had two more heavy travel bags in his hand and was thrown into the back seat.

"What is it?" Michael asked.

"Is that all there is to intelligence?" Shi Hu asked rhetorically.

"If your mouth is not oily, how can you talk?" Michael is not ashamed.

"Money." Shi Hu said, "Go to the Rio hotel you said, I'm going to play poker." ”

"Wow, that's a million, isn't it?" Michael looked in the rearview mirror, where the big man sat in the center with thick money bags on either side.

"You want to do it again?" Shi Hu guessed.

"I've got to beat you too." Michael Khan, who was no bigger than Shi Hu, let alone the giant Mars, remembered the battle that night.

"The open-air party at the Rio hotel was a lot of fun." Michael said as he drove, "It's on top of a building dozens of floors, and every night it's a bunch of hot girls." ”

Listen to Michael's ramblings all the way to the hotel.

The Rio hotel is not small, four-star, but unfortunately it is not on both sides of the long street, and the geography is a little weaker, but fortunately, it has the right to host WSOP and has earned a lot of fame. Unlike the outside, there are still more tourists in the casino, and today is Saturday night, the peak of the weekend in the casino.

"What about the poker room? To be the largest. Shi Hu asked, the casino was too big, and he didn't bother to look for it.

Michael understood: "It must be a VIP area, no wonder you have to carry millions, and if you want to go in and play, you really have some capital." ”

To be precise, Shi Hu took all his cash, a full 1.5 million US dollars, which is more than 12 million yuan in RMB, which will be the biggest game he plays. Didn't Michael say that there are a lot of experts here? He came to see how much money he could make from here.

Major customers took the initiative to come to the door, and the floor manager personally entertained them.

Even his two friends were also stained, and he was able to go into the VIP poker room with him to watch the duel of the masters. Shi Hu asked for a glass of lemonade to refresh himself. They were also allowed to join the big hand hand in progress, which currently has five players and a minimum of four million chips on the table.

Shi Hu sat down, and Mars laid out all his chips on the table.

Then he and Michael stepped out of the velvet belt and leaned against the bar to watch. Shi Hu understands the rules, and the convention is no-limit, and he has already played halfway through the game, with $10,000/$20,000 blinds. After he sat down, everyone was staring at him, and someone smiled and said, "There's a new face." ”

"Maybe he'll empty you."

"Not many Asians play poker."

"Isn't the Orient Express Asian?"

Shi Hu didn't speak, just observed their words and deeds. Through the dialogue, it can be seen that most of the people here know each other, and their fame should be not small, and it is estimated that this is a very high-level ring. Shi Hu suddenly climbed so high, a bit of a risk - and at the same time very exciting.

Too bland he doesn't want it, the stimulation is suitable.

It's a big deal...... Shi Hu has a good mentality. The most taboo thing to play poker is a bad mentality, eager to win money, there are urgent things at home, and your private life is a mess...... These are not the ways in which a game should be. It was said by a top master, Shi Hu can't remember who it is, but it works.

Although everyone seems to be relaxed, these people are by no means fuel-efficient lamps, and at the beginning of the game, everyone will test him intentionally or unintentionally. For players who have never heard of them before and now suddenly appear to play big with them, the likelihood of being a rookie is not high, and only the master remains.

Shi Hu is also very focused on the game, and he frequently reads minds to his opponents.

The success rate of mind reading is not high, but it is also rewarding to use it frequently. Comparing their hole cards, playing styles, etc., soon, those people's styles took shape in his heart, and after about half an hour, the time was ripe, and he began to fight them with real knives and guns.

Mastering your opponent's hole cards can affect the outcome of the game with courage and luck.

The game is dull, there are not many scenes of fighting, and it is estimated that you have to play until late at night. Shi Hu relied on his card reading skills to achieve a number of victories, slowly accumulating 2 million chips, the second highest among players, and then he exercised the privilege of the chip advantager: frequent re-bets.

The re-bet is a risk-taking strategy, but Shi Hu's re-bet is made after considering the opponent's hole cards. His win rate will increase many times over, and with this hand, he has the confidence to bet heavily. Other players may fold, but the $20,000 blinds are no joke.

Opponents can fold all the time, but sooner or later the blinds will run out of their bankroll.

Finally, some players couldn't resist this kind of play, and went all-in against Shi Hu, who asked the dealer to count the opponent's chips and call the opponent's all-in. Then the cards were dealt, relying on the advantage of the hole cards, Shi Hu Lisuo emptied the opponent and won 400,000 US dollars, which made the audience greedy.

"You're playing hard." It was said.

Shi Hu smiled: "The advantage of more chips is not it?" ”

"I've never seen you before." The other party said that he was a white man...... Old man, right. The hair is a little small, the complexion is red, and the beer belly is straight. At first glance, you can see that he is a rich man who enjoys all day long, and his playing skills are not weak, and he should be the strongest at the poker table.

Until now, the old man still has 2.2 million chips.

Shi Hu is far ahead with 3.2 million, and it can basically be said that this game is a duel between him and the white old man, and the other opponents will be slowly emptied in the game. The old white man was also observing him, and suddenly there was a game where he didn't even look at the hole cards, so he placed a heavy bet and waited for Shi Hu's performance.

Shi Hu read his mind to him, and probably felt that this guy was going to fight his luck.

But the old man didn't look at the hole cards, and Shi Hu naturally couldn't read what cards the other party had...... He hesitated and called.

After the flop (the first three community cards) was issued, the other party looked at the hole cards, Shi Hu also glanced at it, and scolded the mother in his heart, and decisively folded.

The old white man laughed, and he still didn't look at the cards in the next game.

Shi Hu heeled, luck was still not good, on the turn (the fourth card), the opponent formed a full house, and he was still drawing between three of a kind and two pairs...... Fold your hand.

After another game, the old white man looked at the cards.

Shi Hu breathed a sigh of relief and began to follow, and then the old man had a good hole card, but unexpectedly folded the card.

Shi Hu wondered, and the other party said: "Your ability to read cards is very strong." ”

Shi Hu said: "Maybe I guessed blindly. ”

"Then I'll have to rely on luck to fight you." The other party said with a smile.

Shi Hu looked at the hole cards and frowned. The opponent chose to raise to 500,000 - he didn't look at his hole cards.

"Follow." Shi Hu made up his mind.

Betting on luck, although it is beyond his control, don't forget, Shi Hu is now in actor mode.

In the hours since he joined the game, Shi Hu has been disguising.

His frowning was actually deliberate, repeated many times in the game, and it was often difficult for him to make a choice when he got a small card.

His current hole cards are: 4 and 5, which are small enough, but the flop is: J, 6, 8.

There is still a 7 left, and he is a 45678 straight.

The other party didn't know this, thinking that he had a bad card and continued to follow.

Shi Hu is also betting on luck, placing heavy bets to force his opponent to give up...... Or a fierce revolt.

"I'm all down." The old white man chose to rebel.

Shi Hu gritted his teeth and chose to follow, so that there were more than 4 million chips in the pot.

With such a huge pot, many viewers' spirits were instantly raised, and Michael's eyes did not leave for a moment, only Mars was sleepy.

The old white man laughed: "People are old, it is impossible to fight with you for another night." ”

"It's good to rest early, go to the beach and soak up the sun or something." Shi Hu smiled. He still has millions in chips, and it doesn't matter if he loses.

The dealer discards a card and deals the flop and river: a queen and a 7.

So, the five community cards are: Jack, 6, 8, Q, 7.

The old white man smiled and turned over his hole cards: a pair of jacks, and his biggest was three jacks.

But his smile froze when he swept his eyes to Shi Hu's cards, Shi Hu's hole cards were weak 4 and 5, but they made up a straight 45678 with the community cards.

Straight > three of a kind.

The dealer decided that Shi Hu had won, and the pile of thick chips was all drawn in front of him.

Excluding his own chips, Shi Hu won $2 million from the white old man, and with the results of the previous battle, he had as many as 5.5 million chips in front of him.

The audience looked at the chips, and their mouths were dry.

Michael's eyes widened and he swallowed wildly: "I snatched $4 million in one night, I'll God!" Boss, you're really a gambling god! ”
