Chapter 1702: Shuffle!
Regarding the collapse of oil prices, Gao Longzang can't figure it out for the time being. Anyway, according to common sense, the price of oil has fallen, and Song Jiannan's income should be reduced, it should be like this.
As a result, he and Xia Huju pondered for a while, but they couldn't figure out one, two, three, so they simply contacted Hanhai by phone and asked Hanhai to find some domestic economic experts to study and explain, anyway, he only provided a general information.
After a while, the sky will dawn, and the "Heroes Club" of the gambling world will officially begin. And the most important event in the morning is to announce the "shuffle"!
Although many gambling bigwigs have lost money by being copied from the bottom, the "shuffle" is very important after all, and it is related to the pattern of the world gambling world in the next three years, so everyone is still very concerned, and none of them left the table in advance.
Besides, after the "shuffle" results were announced during the day, after all, the new president and vice chairman of the gambling federation will be re-elected in the evening! Of course, this is just as important, and you won't miss it.
……
"Shuffle" is a very rigorous process, 52 cards of gambling poker in the past three years, points or something, will be clearly announced, which is FIFA ranking the strength of each national team is similar, or even more detailed. Generally speaking, such rankings are very authoritative, and no one questions them too much.
Even if you don't accept it yourself? Do you feel like you're stronger than the guy at the top of the rankings? No problem, it's a big deal that after the ranking is over, you can challenge that person. As long as you can win, you can swap it with his poker. Everyone has a chance to choose who to challenge, and the order of the challenge is from highest to lowest - if someone challenges the number one king of spades, well, this one starts first.
Of course, there may be a lot of small surprises - for example, if someone is challenged by several people at the same time, then whoever is in the first order among the challengers will be the first to be challenged. There are only 52 people in total, and there are not many games compared to all of them, after all, these games can be played at the same time. This point will be made by the federation and will not need to be elaborated.
Another example is some small rules, such as if you are not convinced by the ranking of the federation and want to challenge a higher player. This is also a useful supplement and correction to the point ranking. In this way, the ranking will definitely be more scientific and reasonable.
But people don't accept your challenge for nothing - you have to pay for it. Surrender $1,000,000 to be eligible for the challenge. Of the millions of dollars, the federation collects 30% of the "notary fee", leaving 700,000 to the challenged. And if the challenger loses, then the challenger doesn't have to pay the million dollars.
This is also a small opportunity for the federation to "make extra money", and it can earn a little bit from it every time. "Silver Fox" Steve, an old fox who looks like a ghost, even sometimes deliberately ranks a few weaker ones in front of a few slightly stronger ones, which is equivalent to deliberately creating more challenges, so that the federation can also have more "income...... This old bastard.
Of course, it can't be too outrageous to move such shady hands and feet in the rankings. For example, if you have to rank the K of hearts He Yang in the 2 of spades, then He Yang will definitely challenge the previous masters, but this ranking is too absurd and will affect the credibility of the federation. So, this kind of little trick will not be too outrageous.
In addition, if you want to challenge others, then the choice of betting method is up to others. Others are proficient in solitaire and naturally choose to bet on solitaire; If you are proficient in dice, you choose to bet on dice. This ostensibly increases the difficulty of the challenge, but at the same time it appears that the federation maintains the authority of its own rankings.
In short, there are many detailed rules of this kind of regulation, and after the gradual improvement over the years, there will definitely be a reasonable procedure to bind the norms.
……
At nine o'clock in the morning, the curtain of "shuffle" officially opened!
The result of this "shuffle" is actually divided into two major areas - the flower card area and the non-flower card area. The twelve cards are all king-level masters, which are naturally more intense and eye-catching, so they are placed in the back as the finale. The first 40 common cards will be ranked starting with club 2 and rising one by one.
"What? Why would Club 2 be me, damn it! "One guy "hit the jackpot" because the name that was first read was his. Well, he is also the lowest-ranked of all poker in the gambling world. And in order to make fun of this penultimate guy, it is nicknamed "jackpot" in the gambling world.
And the most enjoyable thing is that this guy is exactly the gambling master from the Wa Kingdom that Gao Long hid on the Dragon Zang. Obviously, this product has had a poor record in the past three years, and its strength has regressed, and as a result, the ranking has slipped to the last place. But fortunately, as long as you own a poker card, it is not difficult to make a living in various gambling worlds.
As Huo Xiangdong read out more and more names, the expressions and reactions of the following gambling masters became more and more varied.
Huo Xiangdong: "4 of spades, Huang An!" ”
Huang An: "Drink, the rank is not bad, buddy has improved by two." ”
Huo Xiangdong: "6 of hearts, Lawrence!" ”
Lawrence: "Damn, it got me so soon, I thought I'd have to wait until 7 or 8, bad luck!" ”
Huo Xiangdong: "Plum 7, Philip." ”
Philip: "Haha, Lawrence, I'll just say you're not good, you still don't believe it!" Lo and behold, the federation has its own umpire! ”
Lawrence: "Die!" Wait, I'm going to challenge you this time, and I'm not going to pay that million dollars! ”
Philip: "Don't think about it, I'll wait for you to send me $700,000, haha!" ”
Huo Xiangdong: "Masao Watanabe, Ace of hearts!" ”
Masao Watanabe: "What? Bastard,I was successfully challenged by He Yuan's bastard last time.,Lost the club J.,This time I'm just going to get this card back.,Why did I regress by one ...... Wait, no matter who the plum J is this time, I'm going to challenge him...... Hmph, I've been waiting for three years, just to wait for an opportunity, and I'm going to fight for it, not to prove that I'm amazing. I'm going to sue the people that I must get back what I lost! ”
Rub, you've watched too many movies, you're memorizing the lines of "The True Colors of Heroes", speechless......
All in all, the rankings are generally fair. Slightly ambiguous and unconvincing, basically the gap is within three places, so people can't say anything, at most they say that they are unlucky-among them, Steve, the old fox, has operated five in the dark, and it is estimated that the federation will have to make a little extra money. In addition, it is more exciting when there is a challenge, which can be regarded as adding some fun to the "Heroes Club".
And when it was close to eleven o'clock, the 40 ordinary gambling pokers were read out, and a few were happy and a few were sad. After a twenty-minute break, less than half past eleven, the most eye-catching part was the announcement of the 12 flower card lists!
This time there are fewer people and it will take less time. And what everyone is most concerned about is, who is the King of spades? In addition, the name of "Joker" Jack has never appeared, and I don't know how the federation arranges his ranking?
