339, Las Vegas

A well-known reporter in the United States was laughing and putting his arm around Wu Di's shoulder, as if this would better reflect their intimacy.

"Wu, it's said that you're going to move All-Star Weekend to Toronto, I wonder if you really have that idea?"

At this time, Wu Di, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, seemed to be preparing to attend some important occasion.

When he heard the question of the reporter who was extremely enthusiastic with him in front of him, Wu Di laughed and said:

"This idea has been in the back of my mind for a long time. Haha, you can understand that I've been planning this for a long time, and if the alliance approves it, then I think I'll be very, very happy. ”

"Speaking of which, I thought about having a special All-Star weekend in Toronto, because it was in a foreign country, and it must have a special flavor.

But, Wu, I've heard that your friends in Las Vegas don't agree with you doing this.

They said that All-Star can only be held here, and other cities participating in the competition will give them one less chance to hold it. ”

When Wu Di heard this, he was stunned and smiled: "I don't think they think so, they are a group of cute guys."

Enjoying an All-Star experience in Las Vegas is a wonderful memory.

I've been here since yesterday and I've loved it and it's really a great choice to host an All-Star in Las Vegas.

Well, I'm looking forward to moving the All-Stars to Toronto next year. ”

The reporter laughed along, he originally met Wu Di by chance, so he pulled Wu Di to gossip a few words.

When he looked at Wu Di's outfit, he had a smile on his face.

"Wu. Are you going for a candlelit dinner? I have to say. You're really handsome today. ”

Wu Di heard the meaning of the other party's words and laughed. I don't really care, after all, in today's NBA, the atmosphere of players is very open.

Fans don't criticize players too much in their private lives.

"I'd like to, but the spot across from me is still empty. So that's probably an unrealistic plan. ”

"Wu, this is just an illusion, if you say that you want to find someone to date tonight, I think your phone will be blown up immediately."

Wu Di's expression was strange, he turned his head and asked, "The phone exploded?" You mean from my girlfriends? ”

Wu Di spoke. The seriousness of the reporter immediately made the reporter laugh again.

"That's the thinking of you Chinese, and here, I don't think that will happen. Hey, Wu, seriously, you're really a hunter tonight. ”

Wu Di was surprised and said with a smile: "Hunter? ”

"Yes, that's right. Hunter, a very dangerous hunter. A hunter capable of making their prey deadly. Hehe, can you reveal which one of your prey is? ”

Apparently. This reporter has been trying to ask Wu Di about his movements tonight, and in his opinion, maybe this can become a very good news topic today.

Of course, Wu Di understands the dangers of dealing with journalists, but even if he is very honest at this time, the other party may not believe it.

"The hunters aren't going to look for prey today, man, seriously, I have something to do, and I need to get over there, or those guys will be in a hurry."

"Those guys?"

Wu Di smiled: "Yes, those guys, for you, they are more valuable than me." ”

The reporter was confused, obviously, he very much wanted to know who Wu Di was going to find tonight.

"Wu, where are you going, do you want a bodyguard? I think I'll be very competent. ”

"Las Vegas casino, you can come along if you can."

……

That's right, it's Las Vegas, the largest city in Nevada, the metropolis known as the entertainment capital of the world and the mecca of marriage.

It is a well-known city for gambling, tourism, shopping, and vacation, so it can be said that it is the ideal place for all leisure and, of course, it is also a gold cave.

This is evident from the fact that it is home to nine of the ten largest resorts in the world.

After Wu Di came here, he was completely seduced by the unique atmosphere of the city, and after receiving the invitation, he almost didn't think about it, and he was ready to go to the Las Vegas casino.

In fact, speaking of Wu Di in the United States for so many years, it is the first time he has come to Las Vegas.

Even though his family background is rich, he really never thought of coming to such a big gambling city with gold caves.

Of course, although he has not been here, he still knows a lot about the qiē here.

After all, after so many years in the United States, his ears can hear the cocoon.

Moreover, for Wu Di, he felt that if he returned to China and a compatriot asked him about the casino, then he would be more detailed than what he said before he came here.

Las Vegas, located deep in the Great Nevada Desert.

It is located in a mysterious oasis, and what was originally a small village has slowly become a city after a hundred years of development, and in the last decade, it has become a world-famous gambling city.

It has the most modern hotels in the world and the most brilliant neon lights, and everyone who arrives here can enjoy the ultimate in comfort and indulgence.

It is in the plot of those Broadway operas, and people will yearn for it endlessly every time they see it.

It is also under the poker carefully opened by countless gamblers, and there is a cold-blooded and dark side here, and it is likely that you will come with a rich family and leave destitute.

……

Such a city has too unique charm.

It is the origin of all people's dreams, either nothing or overnight success.

Here, you can hear about too many celebrities, Tyson, Elvis, Nicolas Cage, and even Rodman and Madonna.

This will always become a laughing point for many people after dinner, making people talk excitedly and can't stop.

However, for Wu Di, he didn't care much about these in his heart.

First time in Las Vegas. Wu Di could clearly feel the restlessness in his heart. This feeling. Wu Di called him a rebellion hidden deep in his heart.

Obviously, this kind of thing, everyone has it, it's just a different way to be stimulated on a certain occasion.

Wu Di understands that Las Vegas has dug his enjoyment out of his body.

Although it is not a good thing to know that is not a good thing, after all, he is an athlete, not a gambler.

However, Wu Di thinks. It's still okay to play. He was an adult with a sense of reason.

Considering the all-star occasion at this time, it is clear that he should do what he wants to do.

The right to relax once again.

This is what Wu Di said to himself in his heart.

……

The city of Las Vegas is enough to be described as opulent, and Wu Di has never seen such a luxurious and chic city.

"It's a casino, and I don't think anyone has enough wealth to squander here for too long."

Wu Di sat in the car and saw a black man on the side of the road pinching a dozen dollar bills and stuffing it towards the chest of a bewitching big-breasted girl, he also understood that this was really a holy place to enjoy.

And the colorful neon lights on the roadside dot this unique city.

Wu Di came at night yesterday. So today, the first time I observed such a night scene, it was really an eye-opener.

After seeing too many "roadside views". Wu Di's heart was also full of restlessness.

……

At this time, in front of the door of the Las Vegas casino, a group of tall men in suits were waiting.

They were talking constantly, and there was laughter from time to time.

When a taxi stopped and a man walked out, the guys immediately got excited.

"Wu, it's really hard for you to please, let's go, I'll wait for you."

After Wu Di greeted a few people around him with a smile, he went in with the flow of people.

The arrival of a group of people didn't seem to attract much attention, and even the security guards standing in front of the door only glanced at them a few more times, and then there was no more.

Obviously, the identity of Wu Di's gang is not enough to attract much attention, after all, this is a gathering place for chaebols, wealthy families, magnates, and celebrities from all over the world.

……

Inviting Wu Di to come here was the idea of these members of the Eastern All-Star Team, and obviously, Wu Di had no reason to refuse.

After all, if you don't play with them this time, then it is likely that you will not be able to play happily in the future.

In their group, in addition to the latecomer Wu Di, there were Maddie, O'Neal, James, Pierce, Bosh, Oden, Delon, Ray Allen, Arenas, Carter, and O'Neal Jr.

It can be said that this is all the players of the Eastern All-Stars except for the coaching staff, so it is understandable why Wu Di is here.

Obviously, this is where the Eastern All Stars bunch of guys hang out.

Now that they have come to the Las Vegas casino, Wu Di naturally understands that they have to play a game.

And because it's 12 people together, there's naturally some limit to what you can play.

After a brief discussion, the group came to an oval-shaped round table and sat down in a circle.

……

For Wu Di, today's gang of guys has a good relationship with him. Although Maddie and James compete too much with him, in private, the relationship between the three is not as-for-tat as it is on the field.

As for O'Neill Jr. and Pierce, Wu Di did not have a deep friendship with them, but they were also friends.

And Arenas, Delon, Oden, and Bosh are all Wu Di's brothers, and they have fooled around in Washington many times.

As for Lei Allen, this guy can be regarded as Wu Di's master on free throws, after all, Wu Di consulted him that summer, and the relationship between the two is okay.

……

A group of people are quite familiar with each other, so there will naturally be nothing unhappy about playing together.

After sitting down, O'Neill can be said to be the most active, although he has not yet started to gamble, but the atmosphere at the table has obviously been mobilized.

The few agreed to play Texas Hold'em, after all, it was a game that could be played by all 12 big men of their own.

As for the minimum bet amount, a guy like O'Neill came directly to 1w, which made Wu Di also startled.

Obviously, although the guys present are all All-Stars, their net worth is different.

Although the 1w ante is nothing to Wu Di. But for guys like Oden and DeLong who still have rookie contracts. It's simply unbearable.

But. Wu Di could still tell from the smile on O'Neill's face that the shark was obviously deliberately teasing a few newcomers.

Although Delong and Auden did not show anything on their faces, Wu Di, who had been with them for a long time, could naturally find their embarrassment.

As their leader, Wu Di naturally opened his mouth to speak.

In the end, the minimum bet amount was determined, $1,000, and only 3 bets could be placed per round.

For Wu Di, he actually rarely plays cards. But today he felt that he was quite interested.

O'Neill was active and he asked to be a bookmaker.

Wu Di sat in second place on his left hand, so the first big blind was him.

Once everyone has placed their bets, the cards are dealt.

Because it is 12 people participating, the playing cards at this time are naturally special.

After Wu Di got 2 hole cards, he placed his first bet of $1,000 without thinking about it.

Next to Wu Di is Oden, the big man has had a good season and has also played the value of the top show. And I don't know if he feels that he can get a big contract in the future, so he directly increased it to $2,000.

After Auden. It was Delon's turn, who seemed to be a little depressed about Auden's recklessness, and before placing his bets, he did not forget to look at Auden twice.

Because it's the first hand, everyone is obviously in the mood to try it out.

After no raises, the second round of cards is dealt.

After this deal, the low bet became $2,000.

Wu Di was still conservative in his strategy, and after the $2,000 was pressed, he stopped talking.

This one landed him an ace of spades, which seemed good, but he obviously needed to keep his cool mind, as it was just a card.

3 of Auden, 6 of Delong spades...... The two of them obviously didn't have the capital to speak, so they followed two thousand directly.

Judging by the cards on the table, Wu Di's ace of spades is the largest, and in addition to Wu Di, it is Pierce's king of hearts.

Pierce spoke in the second round, where he raised the stakes to 4K, and in doing so, Auden and Delon were the first to toss. As for Bosh and Xiao O, they also hesitated and threw away the cards.

As a result, there are eight people left at the table.

When everyone called, and it was Pierce's turn to choose again, the guy raised again with a smile on his face, $6K.

Seeing this, Wu Di immediately understood in his heart that this Pierce was obviously a master of Texas Hold'em, and he was playing psychological tactics with the people at the poker table.

O'Neill threw the cards directly in frustration, even if he was not bad for money, he didn't want to take a 5 of hearts to bet, after all, Oden took the 3 of hearts, and Delon took the 6 of spades.

Wu Di's face did not change in the slightest, and directly increased the stakes to 8K.

As a result, the round of three raises is used up.

Because the stakes reached 8K, Ray Allen hesitated to throw the cards, and the number of people still holding out at the table was reduced to only five.

In the third round of dealing, Wu Di got a Ace of spades, and Pierce fished another King of squares.

As soon as such a card came out, the two directly looked at the hole cards, and then did not follow.

As a result, there are only three players left at the table: Wu Di, James and Pierce.

Although everyone was sure that the first hand was going to lose thousands, they didn't have any upset, but laughed and coaxed easily.

Wu Di still 2K to keep up, and Pierce seemed to have a plan in advance, after Wu Di threw the bet chips, directly 8K followed, and then glanced at James who was thinking with low eyebrows.

James signed a five-year, 90 million contract with the Cavaliers last summer, plus his advertising and sneaker income, it can be said that James is definitely not bad for money today.

While James was thinking, Wu Di also looked at James's cards, a club 9 and a club 10.

A strange feeling suddenly rose in Wu Di's heart, he felt that James's deck of cards was completely capable of winning this table.

Although he didn't know why he felt like this, Wu Di still seriously considered the next countermeasures.

After thinking about it, James chose to call, and Wu Di did not hesitate and directly added 6K to follow.

In the fourth round of dealing, after everyone saw three decks of cards, they immediately screamed.

Wu Di's eyes were full of surprise, James took another plum jack, and he fished out a square piece A. As for Pierce. This is the King of Spades.

Apparently. Such a hand means that Wu Di has completely changed from an advantage to a disadvantage, James 9, 10, J, and there is every hope of getting a club straight with ghost luck.

As for Pierce, he has the biggest advantage with 3 kings on the brand.

Although Wu Di thought James would win the game, he was still ready to bet.

At this time, Wu Di obviously knew that the ante would definitely not be the time to look at the cards...... So direct 8k bets.

Pierce was confident. Don't hesitate to call directly.

It was James' turn...... This little emperor who is resolute on the court seems to be a little uncertain.

Ray Allen, as James' teammate, just laughed and didn't say anything, while O'Neal interjected and said that James would take a gamble.

However, James clearly had his own ideas, and he smiled and threw the cards.

Wu Di secretly regretted in his heart, obviously, such a choice reflects James's cautious character, he will make a careful plan, obviously, this kind of person will not take risks to do anything.

James's cards. Looks good, but if it changes a suit. Or a non-straight combination, then it is a complete waste deck, and if you get two of the same card, it is obviously not as good as Pierce's three kings.

Therefore, Wu Di also knew in his heart that James did this completely out of consideration. After all, the probability of him winning is too small.

Wu Di and Pierce are left, and it is naturally time to look at the cards.

Wu Di took the card in his hand, and after reading it, he smiled and said: "Paul, I don't think you will definitely have four kings, you will lose this time." ”

Pierce smiled, Wu Di had two aces, he had three kings, and on the hole cards, unless Wu Di had an ace, it would definitely be him to win.

In everyone's expectation, Wu Di opened two hole cards, a heart A, and a club 3.

Seeing this, Paul Pierce smiled helplessly, and also turned over his hole cards, a black 4 and a red 8.

Obviously, this deck of cards pitted Pierce and made him fall short in the end.

Wu Di smiled and accepted a table of bets, causing everyone to shout.

Suddenly, where James was, the screams of Arenas and O'Neal suddenly rose.

Wu Di raised his eyes in surprise to see that James was holding his head with a depressed face.

"Damn ......"

It turned out that when Wu Di accepted the chips, James and O'Neal turned over James's two hole cards, which were clubs A and clubs K.

"LeBron, with this deck of cards, you are completely capable of challenging for the position of gambling king, and no one will be your opponent."

While speaking, Wu Di was surprised by the premonition he had just now, James was really able to win this first game, but obviously regretted, he didn't persevere.

James was obviously surprised by the surprise on his face, and he seemed to be wondering why he didn't gamble, after all, losing is just losing 8K more, and if he wins, it will be a tenfold return.

Wu Di won nearly $10w in the first hand, which made a group of big guys in the Eastern All-Stars feel envious.

Obviously, in their opinion, Wu Di's luck at the table is as good as he is on the field.

Then began to gamble a second time, this time, the dealer became Wu Di.

And the big blind is Delon.

Again, the bet is placed, two hole cards are dealt, and then the round continues.

I don't know if it was stimulated by Wu Di's first hand, but the second gambling card was obviously much more intense.

The 12 big men fought fiercely, and Wu Di also secretly shouted in his heart, this is a complete gamble.

The first card seemed to be very difficult to get, with Truth and Arenas raising back-to-back but not scaring anyone away.

The first card is dealt down, Wu Di Club 3, the smallest, and the largest is the shark's heart queen.

Obviously, no one got a good hand, so the second round of testing began.

This time, it was still a three-raise, and Delon and Ray Allen chose to give up.

The remaining 10 people got the second card, Wu Di Red Heart 10, Shark Red Heart King.

As a result, O'Neill was depressed, Wu Di got a 10 of hearts, and he had no possibility of a straight flush, and if he wanted to win, he had to get a gourd or four cards to be competitive.

Seeing the shark throwing the bet, Wu Di laughed and said that O'Neill should not be so reckless.

O'Neal said that he didn't want to follow the path of LeBron's first hand, which made everyone laugh and scold O'Neal for being confident.

But O'Neill apparently doesn't believe anyone else's cards will be good......

But it's a pity that Wu Di won another one by virtue of his hunch, and this one, Wu Di won more, reaching more than 200,000.

Although the money is small, it always wins, which seems to cause everyone's surprise.

In the third, Wu Di still pressed to the end as a dealer, and this time the 5 families were merged, and the result was that Wu Di finally won with two 7s.

Fourth, Wu Di felt that it was difficult to win, and when Pierce insisted on pressing to the end, Wu Di immediately folded, and the result was 4 J's.

This strange feeling made Wu Di feel stunned in his heart, and he really couldn't find anything to describe it.

However, what made him happy was that more than 500w of this 8-hour gamble fell into his pocket. (To be continued......)
