readx;??? PS: Thank you ZYJ13 big, mzjia big, 21437612 big monthly pass!

The two sides agreed to gamble in Macau three days later, and Wu Di rushed into the house before nine o'clock. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info saw a large family sitting in the living room watching TV, a happy and warm feeling surged from the bottom of his heart, no matter what he went through, how long he wandered, here, is always the warmest harbor.

After a few simple exchanges with his parents, Wu Di's phone rang again, who was calling so late? He didn't bother to get up, and instructed Wu Dan to get him the phone, but the big lazy made the little lazy, and he stared at each other, and finally the green snake took the phone.

Dongfang Lie? Wu Di sat up straight suddenly, how could Dongfang suddenly remember to call him? Did he know that he was going to bet against Brown's uncle, his gambling master?

"Little Five, can you surf the Internet?"

Dongfang Lie didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked him if he could go online, it seems that something big has happened, but what will be the big thing that can make him call to inform?

"The rules of the antique gambling competition have come out, I sent the URL to your mailbox, you take a look at it first, and we'll discuss it later."

Wu Di was taken aback, so fast? What are those ten antiques?

"Only one was announced today, but I estimate that people in the domestic collection industry who get the news are going crazy, so you can take a look first."

People in the domestic collecting world are going crazy? What kind of baby will it be? Wu Di quickly ran to the bedroom and opened the notebook. After dozens of seconds of anxious waiting, he clicked on the mailbox, and sure enough, there was an unread email.

The email was very simple, there was only one URL, Wu Di took a deep breath and clicked lightly.

This is a dedicated betting site, with an all-English interface, and a large red font as soon as it comes up. A few words of the Global Antique Betting Competition, as if drenched in blood, flashed and flashed, stabbing his eyes painfully.

Wu Di hurriedly browsed the introduction, similar to what Dukene said, a total of ten precious antiques, as the goal of the second round of competition, will be announced in the next ten days, and the first one that has been announced, Huo Ran is the 75 volumes of the Ming Dynasty rare book of "Yongle Canon"!

Wu Di gasped. "Yongle Ceremony"! It's still 75 volumes! How is this possible? Where did they find these treasures?

Compiled during the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty, the Yongle Dictionary is a collection of Chinese encyclopedic documents, with 22,937 volumes, 11,095 volumes, and about 370 million words. This treasure house of ancient culture brings together seven or eight thousand kinds of books from all generations before the Ming Dynasty, and as a world-famous encyclopedia, it fully shows the glorious achievements of ancient Han culture, and is a collection of masterpieces.

This epic ceremony is ill-fated and has endured countless mysteries and war-torn battles. At present, there are only more than 800 volumes in existence, among them, Japan has collected as many as 55 volumes of the secret book of the Chinese Imperial Palace, "Yongle Canon", second only to Japan is the United States 45 volumes. 38 volumes in the UK. As far as Wu Di knows, after several generations of all-out acquisitions, the Chinese collection community only has 226 volumes.

However, this time, they actually took out 75 copies of the Yongle Dictionary at one time! Wu Di exhaled a long breath. If these are the parts that have never been in the world, how much of a sensation will they cause in the country and in the world? No. You don't need to be all the parts that don't have a living life, grandma's, even if all of them are known, then you have to desperately grab them back!

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and looked down. The competition will be held for three weeks from September 1 to September 21. The most important thing is that on July 7, 10 days before registration begins, there will be a 10-day public display of these 10 treasures!

Next is the qualification to participate, a total of 320 large and small casinos around the world have been recommended qualifications, of which the top 50 casinos, each with 10 recommended places, and then according to the strength, can recommend 1 to 5 people. If all of these places are filled, the number of participants will be a staggering 1,600!

Sixteen hundred! Even if half of the first level is killed, there are still eight hundred left, and how many professional gamblers are there who have mixed in through various relationships?

Rules, at this time, the role of the rules of the game is too crucial!

The competition stipulates that each participant should bring three antiques worth more than 5 million US dollars for a single piece, and the antique category is not limited, but the value determination needs to be based on the appraisal results of ten international appraisal masters!

In the first level, the organizer will provide 40 pieces of various antiques, and the contestants will conduct on-site appraisal. Forty people enter each time, each antique has three minutes of identification time, and you can score points if you answer the name and age correctly, and the score can enter the next round if you reach the passing line of 60 points, and those who do not reach 60 points will not only be eliminated, but will also be exported to a self-contained antique.

Wu Di sneered twice, 1,600 people, 5 million dollar antiques, 60 points of the passing line, it seems that this is to put everyone in the second round! Thousands of people grabbed ten antiques, and the final winner was only ten people at most, and even if each person only lost one of their own antiques, the organizers would get as many as a thousand! A piece worth five million dollars, what a terrible fortune this must be?

Now, the most important thing is the rules of the second round!

Wu Di took a deep breath, turned the page, and squinted his eyes to look carefully.

In the second round, the battle for ten treasures and antiques, all players who pass the first round will have three antiques as a bet, and each player theoretically has the opportunity to get ten treasures and antiques at the same time! In other words, as long as you don't lose all three antiques, you can sign up for any of the ten antiques!

This part is no problem, it is nothing more than one more chance than the original, the key is how to determine the final winner next!

The game is stud, the game adopts a numbered draw, a one-on-one game system!

One-on-one! Wu Di almost laughed out loud, one-on-one, is there anyone else in this world who is his opponent? One-on-one, who else can compare to his clairvoyant eye?

He resisted the urge to call Master, lit a cigarette, and looked down excitedly.

Each round lasts three hours, and each player is worth $5 million in chips, with the highest number of chips winning at the end of the game. The loser will take away the antiques as collateral for the gambling book.

In odd-numbered rounds, a lucky bye is generated, and the remaining four players no longer play one-on-one, but participate in a five-hour game to determine the winner.

Sure enough, it's not that simple, and in the end, the mode of melee is still used, but the number of people has changed from five to four, will there be any change in difficulty?

Wu Di's brows furrowed, but then he let go again, the one-on-one in front of him, compared with the way they originally guessed the game of five people per table, the chance has increased countless times, the people in the casino will not be so lucky, each antique can have two or three people enter the final round, right?

It's just that if they change the rules like this, the number of gamblers sent in by the casino that he and Dongfang Lie guessed must be much smaller than the actual one, so, will it be ten? Or twenty? Or even simply send more, a hundred or two hundred?

He shuddered, and if they were to make sure they were to make sure nothing went wrong, and they would casually stuff one or two hundred people in, then it would be a piece of!

He looked back and again, and suddenly remembered that each of the top 50 could only recommend a maximum of ten players, and then relaxed slightly. Even if the casinos that organized this game were not the five that were conceived at the beginning, there would definitely not be more than ten, that is, the number of people who could be put in at most would not exceed a hundred, and many well-known collectors would occupy a part of the quota if they found these casinos, so it is estimated that there would be no more than fifty people who could be sent in the end.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and then, a thought flashed through him, no, what if their people were recommended through other casinos and then got the answer to the first level from them? Your sister! If that's the case, Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu...... He has been old for a long time, but he has not found any good way......

After explaining the rules of the competition, there are two notes at the bottom of the page, the first of which is the antique redemption system.

Each antique lost to the tournament is allowed to be redeemed by the contestant at one-fifth of the value of the antique at the end of the contest, of course, if the winner is selected as a prize in the third round, he will only consider himself unlucky.

The second one made his eyes shine, the reporting system! The 320 casinos supervise each other, and once they find that a professional gambler is using cheating methods to participate in the competition, they can report it to the special supervision agency set up by the competition, and if the evidence is conclusive, not only will the three antiques they signed up for be confiscated, but the casino that recommended the player will pay an additional fine of up to 10 million US dollars!

This one is so crucial! Three hundred and twenty casinos supervise each other, but I am afraid that none of the professional gamblers can easily sneak into the game, right? Even if there will be some alliances of interest or tacit understanding and other games, the situation is much better than Wu Di guessed just now! It seems that these casinos are still very fair!

After reading it carefully and finding nothing missing, he clicked on the next page.

The rules of the third round have changed again, because the winner of the second round is the winner who can enter the third round, so the bet book of each player in the third round will no longer be the antique they carry, but must use the rare antique won in the second round as a book! Moreover, except for the first place winner, the rest of the contestants' gambling books must be returned to the organizers of the tournament free of charge, and the winning one, two, or three contestants cannot choose these nine antiques as prizes.

As compensation, the top three contestants will be rewarded with a generous reward, and the first place winner can choose 30 of the antiques that will be lost into the prize pool of the first and second rounds as prizes! And so on, the second place can choose twenty pieces, and the third place can choose ten pieces! (To be continued.) )
