The current situation is that St. George is either a pair of jacks and a pair of 10s, or a pair of three 10s, and Li Xiaoning only has a pitiful pair of 10s, which is already a losing situation.

It was Li Xiaoning who called the cards first, so he knocked lightly on the card table and signaled to give way.

"I bet...... Two million dollars. St. George said right away.

Originally, Li Xiaoning had waited for St. George to push all the chips into the pot, and then folded. But seeing that St. George had only bet $2 million, he immediately discouraged the idea of folding. It stands to reason that St. George is already a sure winner and can choose to go all-in, but why did he only bet two million? Is it to attract Li Xiaoning to continue to follow up and then win two million more?

Li Xiaoning quickly judged that this was not St. George's original intention, because the current prize pool was already as high as 18 million, and it was not much fun to win just 2 million more. Then there is only one explanation left, and that is that St. George is not confident that he will win, which means that St. George did not guess his hole cards.

Li Xiaoning's heart beat violently, he was just thinking about the problem from his own point of view, and he didn't notice the pressure of St. George at all. In fact, St. George's agreed to be under a lot of pressure without knowing his hole cards. Because Li Xiaoning is very likely to be a flush or a straight, even if St. George gets three 10s, he will still lose. In other words, Li Xiaoning can now choose to steal chickens. But in the face of a world champion, how likely is it to succeed in stealing chickens?

These thoughts flashed quickly in Li Xiaoning's mind, and it was a long story, but it was actually a second or two of effort. It stands to reason that since you think of stealing chickens, you must not hesitate, because if you hesitate, it means that your heart is weak, and the other party will see through it. Then the consequence is that stealing chickens will not make rice.

But Li Xiaoning didn't do that, but fell into a long exam, until the dealer began to urge, Li Xiaoning gently, but extremely firmly, pushed all the chips into the center of the pot.

Many people who often watch Hong Kong gambling movies think that stealing chickens is an easy thing to do. All you have to do is throw some chips and smile at your opponent to scare them off and get them out of the pot.

But in reality, stealing chickens is a very difficult thing! Because a true expert will start watching you from the moment you sit down at the table, analyze you, and will quickly grasp your style and patterns. You only have to spend hours building the illusion of your opponent and telling them over and over again what they will do when you get a good hand. Once they've accepted your table image and are convinced of it, you can play it as if it were a bad hand. However, even if you do everything perfectly, the highest success rate for stealing chickens at a real table is only 50%.

However, Li Xiaoning obviously does not have to bear such heavy psychological pressure, because he has already invested nine million in this hand, and it is a pity to give up; Second, he actually only took out five million tonight, and the remaining fifteen million were all won from the casino before. Therefore, even if the success rate of stealing chickens is not high, he can still choose to fight to the death and steal this lottery that has reached 20 million US dollars!

After Li Xiaoning pushed all the chips into the pot, it was St. George's turn to make the difficult choice......

St. George lit a cigarette again, and it was not known how many he had smoked that night. He stared at Li Xiaoning deadly, trying to see some clues from Li Xiaoning's face, and then muttered as if talking to himself: "Did you really get a flush?" ”

"That's right, actually, in the last round, I got a flush." Li Xiaoning replied with a smile.

Of course, this is a lie, but when Li Xiaoning said this, even he believed that it was the truth. Because from the moment he was about to steal the chicken, he kept hypnotizing himself, "My hole cards are kings and queens, and I got a flush, even if St. George gets a three-of-a-kind 10, I can win him." ”

This method is very effective, because the highest state of deception is to believe in oneself. Now that Li Xiaoning has convinced himself that he really got a flush, then even if St. George can read his expression and see through his hole cards, it doesn't matter at all. Because the two cards that St. George saw could not be anything else but ...... Block K, and Block Q!

St. George moved his gaze to the middle of the pot, where five red cards were placed, two of which were hearts; The other three are all blocks. In particular, the 2 of diamonds under the penultimate card is even more dazzlingly red......

St. George was really caught in a dilemma. He wanted to sue himself, but Li Xiaoning didn't get a flush. But Li Xiaoning's bidding in the last two rounds made him have to believe that Li Xiaoning really got a flush. Because after the first few hours of fighting, he has "seen through" Li Xiaoning - Li Xiaoning will deliberately show weakness when he gets a really good hand, and then arbitrage more chips. And Li Xiaoning just did this, at the beginning of this hand he was still very strong, but after the appearance of diamond 2, he began to show weakness, and the final result was that St. George took the initiative to pile up the pot to 20 million US dollars. A qiē indication shows that Li Xiaoning really got a flush.

It wasn't until the dealer started urging that St. George didn't make a decision, but called a timeout. Then he lit another cigarette and took a big gulp, during which his eyes wandered over the five community cards on the table and Li Xiaoning's face.

When there was almost half of the cigarette left in his hand, he threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped on it with his foot. This action shows that his heart is indeed in turmoil, because before, he still retained the image of a gentleman, snuffing out the cigarette in the ashtray.

Finally, St. George shook his head, threw the cards back to the dealer, and then said to Li Xiaoning very depressedly: "Young man, don't be too happy, tonight, I just misjudged this hand." I didn't expect you to be a flush! ”

"At least you know how to pronounce the word fold at the end." Li Xiaoning smiled and said, "Otherwise, you will lose more." ”

"Yes, that's right. If I go crazy with you, I'll only have eight million dollars left; But now, I still have fifteen million dollars, and I've only lost five million from the chips I started with, which gives you a lead, but it doesn't hurt at all. St. George shook his head as he spoke, "Your technique is actually just average, and I myself was too absent-minded to make such an unforgivable mistake......"

"yes. I'm just a rookie, and it's normal for you, as a World Champion, to be absent-minded. As Li Xiaoning spoke, he pulled all the chips in the pot in front of him, and then turned over his hole cards.

When he saw that Li Xiaoning's hole cards were the King of Spades and the Queen of diamonds, St. George, who had always remained calm, suddenly jumped up and shouted in an almost roaring voice: "Stinky boy, you dare to steal me?" ”

"Stealing you?" Li Xiaoning deliberately pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. St. George, please listen to my explanation...... It was just an accident! I saw the king of spades as the king of diamonds. ”

Dai Yimin, who was sitting behind Li Xiaoning, had been full of nervousness, but after hearing Li Xiaoning's explanation, he couldn't help laughing. Li Xiaoning is really pretending, if his hole card is the king of hearts, this explanation can still explain the past. But seeing the King of spades as a K of diamonds, this lie is too ridiculous, is he colorblind?

Dai Yimin's laughter caused Li Xiaoning to laugh too. The laughter of the two people intertwined, making Li Xiaoning's explanation more like a mockery......

St. George kept glaring at Li Xiaoning angrily. If Catherine hadn't pulled him into his seat, he might have rushed up and punched Li Xiaoning. Of course, if he really did that, it would definitely not be Li Xiaoning who would be beaten.

St. George sat down, but Li Xiaoning stood up, "It's not too early." That's it for today. "He knows that he has to take it when he sees it, this one is actually a bit of luck to win, and the strength of the real wheel, he is still not as good as St. George's. The people who go to the casino to win money are always the ones who know when to stop and leave, otherwise no matter how good your skills are, you can only send money to the casino.

MGM Plaza is a regular casino, not the kind of underground black casino that doesn't deposit zài you win money and don't let you leave. Therefore, although Catherine was unwilling, she still politely took Li Xiaoning to exchange the chips for checks. and called a luxury car for Li Xiaoning and Dai Yimin to take them back to the hotel. Of course, when sending the two to the car, Catherine did not forget to warmly invite Li Xiaoning to visit MGM Plaza again next time.

Dai Yimin had some opinions about Li Xiaoning's entry into the casino at first, but now he admires Li Xiaoning so much. Thinking about it, in just a few hours, Li Xiaoning turned $5 million into $30 million, and the net profit was as high as $25 million, which was converted into RMB, which was more than 150 million yuan. It is equivalent to the total profit of Mengtang Technology for a whole quarter.

Back at the hotel, as soon as he entered the room, Dai Yimin hugged Li Xiaoning, kissed him on the face with a poof, and said excitedly: "You are really good!" Earned today. ”

Li Xiaoning's body reacted immediately, and he didn't push it, and he didn't push it, so he had to smile awkwardly: "Actually, your credit is not small, don't forget, all the chips were bought by you." Speaking of which, you also have a share in this money. ”

"And how much are you going to share with me?"

"How much do you want?"
