Chapter Eighty-Six: Getting into Trouble
After the chips were dealt, the dealer said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the time is up, let's start now." ”
With the dealer's words, the thick door of the VIP room was slowly closed, and the dealer took a deck of fifty-two playing cards from the side and placed it in the middle of the table, and spread his hands to a few people to signal for five people to check the cards.
Link took the initiative to stand up and be the first to check the cards, he stretched out his finger and swiped the cards lightly on the table to pull out the fifty-two cards on the table, and then pulled the cards back to close the cards again, and the whole process went smoothly.
I've been in Las Vegas for more than a year, and with his extraordinary physical fitness and eyesight, these are completely handy for Link.
After checking the cards, Link sat back in his seat, looking the same as before, but in fact his attention was focused on the deck.
After all the guests have checked their cards, the dealer will quickly start to shuffle the cards. Its movements are very skillful, and the fifty-two playing cards in its hands are constantly flying and changing, which makes people dazzled to watch.
Although almost everyone is staring at the cards in the dealer's hand, the vast majority of them are just watching.
The dealer is very fast and professional, and ordinary people can't catch it at all, so they give up after watching it for a while, but Link has been squinting at the dealer's movements.
In the first round, Link sat in the bank, and his face card was a red heart J, which was the largest, but he didn't look at the hole card, and directly turned over the card, saying: "Don't call." ”
Not to mention the surrounding spectators, Link's four opponents were a little surprised, after all, Link gave up without even looking at his hole cards.
In fact, Link doesn't need to look at the hole cards to know his hole cards, and even he knows that his next card is completely a small loose card, compared to several opponents, it can be said that it is a sure loss.
If when he first entered Caltech, Link couldn't achieve the same high-definition image memory as Sheldon, now Link asks himself if he can do it with his amazing nerve reflex speed and motion capture ability.
Coupled with super high intelligence, when the dealer shuffles the cards, it is enough to remember and judge the order of all the cards, which is the capital that Link is confident that he can win steadily.
The first game was soon over, and the blacks won more than a million chips in a pair of nines, and the cards on the table were recovered and put into a special equipment on the side, which was then cut into long filaments and dropped into a transparent box.
In the next few rounds, Link either gave up directly, or gave up after a round or two, and before he knew it, he had lost nearly a million, after all, each game alone cost 100,000 yuan.
Link was not in a hurry, but Charlize, who was watching from a distance, couldn't help frowning at this time, looking nervous, and unconsciously the money Link lost was something that she couldn't earn for many years now.
After a few rounds, the dealer announced a temporary break, and Link came up to Charlize and said with a smile, "Are you feeling bored?" ”
"Nope." Charlize shook his head, but said, "The feeling is very exciting, and this feeling is even stronger than Gu Kejian." ”
Even if she didn't do anything, she still had to pay $100,000 in admission fees for each game she participated in, which she couldn't even save for years.
Now she is just a model with a little fame, not a first-class actress in Hollywood in the future, she doesn't earn much but spends a lot, so the psychological stimulation is really strong.
Link smiled, and was not too surprised by her description, after all, the modeling circle is extremely chaotic, and people who have stayed there can hardly find anyone who does not smoke laundry detergent.
"Then it's good to see if I win." Link's first few rounds were actually just experiments, after all, it was one thing to be able to do it, it was the first time he really did it, he just used these rounds to get a little familiar, and now it was time to really make a move.
"When the time comes, please take your seats." The break passed quickly, and the five of them went through security again and took their seats at the table in the middle of the hall.
When the dealer shuffled the cards again and began to distribute the poker, Link knew he was going to win, because his first face-up card was an ace of clubs, and his hole cards had an ace of diamonds and an ace of spades.
In other words, Link now has three aces in his hand, which is already an extremely rare good hand. After all, there are too many cards, and the odds of trying to draw a good card are too small.
"One hundred thousand." Link thought for a moment and picked up a crystal chip still on the table.
After seeing it, the Italian man smoked a big cigar and looked at Link and said, "Plum A is only 100,000, which is a bit conservative." ”
Hearing what the other party said, Link shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "That's right." At that moment, he directly took out ten chips and bet on them, and said, "Do you want to follow?" ”
"Forget it, you can continue to play this game." The Italian man was the first to retreat, his face card was the six of spades, and there were two high cards at the bottom, and he couldn't follow at all.
In addition to him, the Japanese also shook his head and said that he would not follow, and now only the man in gold glasses and the black young man followed.
Link knew that the man with gold glasses had a pair of tens, but the black young man had a pair of kings in his hand, and the dealer quickly finished handing out the cards.
The man with gold wire glasses was unlucky to get a red heart seven, and if he couldn't get another ten, there was no need to continue to follow.
However, Link knew that ten was at the end, and the man with gold wire glasses also knew that the odds of Bo a ten were too small, so he chose to give up after struggling for a while.
Link then got a queen, and the black youth got a king, which means that the black youth now has two kings face-up, and a king underneath.
The young black man remained silent, but he directly bet two million dollars, indicating that he was determined to win.
Link thinks back for a moment and makes sure that the rest of the aces and kings are behind, that neither he nor the black youth will get them, and that his next card is a queen, and the opponent will only have a 6, and the next two will be high cards
That is to say, the opponent is at most three K with two loose cards, and he has three A, plus the Q, how to combine to win the other party, and the moment also chose to follow.
Then he continued to deal cards, and sure enough, as Link expected, he directly put more than four million chips next to him, which immediately made everyone pay attention.
The black young man hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "I'll follow!" ”
After all, he had too much of an advantage on the board, and it was hard for him to believe that Link could get two aces.
As the crystal chips were poured onto the table, the clatter touched the hearts of everyone in the hall. This showdown of large sums of money is more attractive and exciting than anything else, and everyone stands up, staring at the gamble in the middle with blazing eyes. Table.
The dealer quickly dealt the remaining cards. Link got a queen, an 8. The young black man got a 3 and a 9.
"Two of you, please open the cards." As soon as the dealer's words fell, Link was already chuckling and stretched out his hand to open his hole cards, two aces.
At this moment, Link saw the expression of the black youth, who had already received an absolute big card like three kings, but was knocked into the clouds before the hole cards were opened.
The black young man, who was already dripping with beads of sweat on his sideburns, immediately paused when he saw Link's hole cards.
The young black man didn't even need to open his hole cards to have already confirmed the loss of the game, in which both sides bet $9 million.
It has to be said that Link felt very happy at this time, while the black young man fell heavily on the chair. Gasping for air, as if he was about to die.
The people in the rest area all looked different, especially those who were with the black youth, all of whom had ugly faces and stared at Link fiercely.
In the face of their gaze, Link remained silent, but his heart was vigilant, because he felt that these people who were with the black youth were not good stubble, and he estimated that he was in trouble.
But now that the arrow is on the line, Link has taken out most of his net worth, so it is naturally impossible to retreat, and Charlize, who did not notice the subtle atmosphere at the moment, smiled very brightly, as if she was the one who won the money.
