Five people sit at the table.

Ji Cheng had his back to the door, on the opposite side was Uncle Chen, on his right hand side was Zhao Haizhe, on his left hand side was Uncle Ning, and on Uncle Ning's left hand side was Uncle Huang.

At this time, Uncle Ning was explaining the rules, "Stud has different rules in different places, so before starting, we have to unify the rules before starting to play, such as the size of the cards, betting, etc." ”

Ji Cheng listened quietly.

Zhu Siguo, Pang Ming and Cheng Hailin, who were sitting not far away watching the battle, watched while eating fruit.

Uncle Ning continued, "The size of the cards is similar, the largest straight flush, followed by four, gourd, flush, straight, three-of-a-kind, two pairs, a pair, than a single card, if the card type is the same is the number and suit to determine the winner, the number first, such as I A straight flush, you K straight flush, then I am big, and the suit is the largest spade, followed by hearts, the third club, and the rest is the smallest square." ”

Ji Cheng bowed slightly.

Uncle Ning talked about the betting rules, "In terms of betting, let's be simple, in addition to the first round of betting, you can choose to abstain, or you can choose to continue to bet and call, but only the fourth card can start to be able to stud, and the other is that the amount of the ante must not be less than 10,000 US dollars, and the subsequent raise must also be an integer multiple of the ante, Mr. Ji, is there a problem?" ”

"Yes." Ji Cheng opened his mouth and asked, "Twenty-eight cards or fifty-two?" ”

Generally speaking, Hong Kong-style five cards are twenty-eight cards, that is, all the cards of four suits from eight to A, but some places are different, and the remaining fifty-two cards except for the big and small kings will be used, so Ji Cheng must ask clearly.

Uncle Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "We are used to playing twenty-eight cards, of course, if you want to play fifty-two cards, you can also play fifty-two cards." ”

Ji Cheng shrugged and said, "Just twenty-eight, I don't care." ”

"What about you?" Uncle Ning looked at the others again.

"No problem."

"Let's start now."

Zhao Haizhe, Chen Bo and Uncle Huang all said so.

Uncle Ning snorted and said, "For the sake of fairness, we will let people deal cards." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to the side.

One of the short-haired girls who had been sitting in the corner stood up, picked up the playing cards on the table with a blank face and opened them, then removed the other cards, and spread out the cards in her hand and said, "Do you want to check the cards?" ”

"No, you don't."

Ji Cheng waved his hand.

Others also said no.

Then, a few powerful men walked in with boxes and opened them, and they were full of new bundles of beautiful knives, which were placed on the ground around each person's chair.

Ji Cheng's only five million dollars here is not bad, but everyone else has 20 million US dollars in banknotes, which is very shocking to place there, almost like a mountain of banknotes.

The dealeress's cards began to be dealt, first with a hidden card and then with an open card to everyone.

Ji Cheng looked at the hole card, it was the grass flower 8, and the open card was the king of hearts, he turned on the perception enhancement and looked at the other people's cards.

Zhao Haizhe has a pair of 9s, which are spades and diamonds.

Uncle Ning is the ace of spades and the jack of hearts.

Uncle Huang is a block king and a grass flower 9.

The rest of Chen Bo is a pair of queens, and the suit colors are grass flowers and squares.

On the surface, he is the biggest, and he should be the first to bet, Ji Cheng didn't even want to deduct the card directly, "This gave me up." ”

"Fold the first hand?"

"Bright card or k."

The others looked at him in surprise, obviously a little incomprehensible, and even a little doubtful that Ji Cheng would play Hong Kong-style five-card after all.

Even Zhao Haizhe looked puzzled.

Ji Cheng didn't explain to them, because he now had to find out the personalities of these people's bets, such as which people like to steal chickens, which people are more cautious, and which people like to take a little risk.

More importantly, he wanted to see if there was anything wrong with the dealer.

Soon, the first one was over, and in the end, Uncle Ning successfully won more than one million by stealing chickens.

The second Ji Cheng folded unexpectedly.

This time it was Zhao Haizhe who won.

The third ......

Fourth......

Fifth ......

It has been fifteen consecutive throws of Ji Cheng and discarded after the second card was issued.

Finally, after this handful was over, Uncle Huang couldn't hold back, "Mr. Ji, don't blame me for being too talkative, don't you know how to play Hong Kong-style five-card?" If not, we can play other cards as well. ”

Ji Cheng smiled and said, "I will, why do you ask that?" ”

Chen Bo also frowned and said: "You don't follow this one, I'm embarrassed to win even if I win." ”

Uncle Ning also said: "Yes, Mr. Ji, if you don't know how to play, there is really no need to play with us, to tell the truth, playing cards is to play an exciting game, bullying a person who can't play this kind of card, even if you win, it's not fun." ”

Although Zhao Haizhe didn't speak, he couldn't help but be secretly anxious when he sat there, before Ji Cheng came, he bragged to a few uncles and uncles, saying that Ji Cheng's gambling skills are unparalleled in the world, how awesome and awesome, and then in order to test Ji Cheng's gambling skills, he even took the initiative to propose to play Hong Kong-style five cards that are closer to Texas Hold'em, the purpose of which is to let Ji Cheng play well.

As a result, Zhao Haizhe didn't expect that Ji Cheng would give up fifteen cards in a row as soon as he came up, and this move was so obvious that he couldn't play.

Even Pang Ming, Zhu Siguo and Cheng Hailin, who were sitting not far away watching the game, were shocked, they didn't know what was going on with Ji Cheng, and they kept folding cards and giving money to others?

Ji Cheng looked very determined and said: "It's not so easy to win my money. ”

Uncle Ning: "......"

Uncle Huang: "......"

Uncle Chen: "......"

They were almost laughed at by Ji Cheng.

It's not so easy to win your money, and you've lost 150,000 at this point.

Zhao Haizhe took the initiative to open his mouth and said: "Maybe Mr. Ji's cards are not very good, let's continue to play." ”

Uncle Ning and the others didn't speak, but just waved at the female dealer and motioned for the other party to continue dealing cards.

After so many handfuls, Ji Cheng roughly figured out that there was really no problem with the female dealer shuffling and dealing cards, and as for the character of the remaining few people playing cards, he also figured it out.

For example, Zhao Haizhe belongs to a more cautious type, generally the card is not very good, at most one round, the next round has not improved will fold.

And Chen Bo is a more reckless kind, there are good cards not to say that they must follow to the end, at least willing to bet.

As for Uncle Huang, he belongs to the type of stealing chickens, and whether there are good cards or not, he will scare others.

Only Uncle Ning is still a little unpredictable, his card style is changeable, almost not limited to one pattern, sometimes obviously very bad cards can also steal chicken success, sometimes there are some very good cards, he feels that something is not quite right will fold, it can be said that it is an old fox.

In terms of the dozen or so he saw just now, Ji Cheng found that Uncle Ning had the highest level, followed by Zhao Haizhe.

But everyone has a common characteristic, that is, they are very good at remembering cards, because they play twenty-eight cards, and there are five people, and it is easy to guess what cards are left from the cards opened, so until now, even if someone loses money, they have not lost too much.

Another round of dealing begins.

This time, Ji Cheng's hole card is an ace of spades, and the open card is a grass flower 8.

He turns on Perception Enhancement to see other people.

Zhao Haizhe's hole card is also an ace, but it is a heart, and the face card is a square king.

Uncle Ning is the King of Spades and the Queen of Spades.

Uncle Huang is a pair of 8s, and the suit is spades and diamonds.

The rest of Chen Bo is a pair of 9s, the hole card is the 9 of spades, and the face card is the 9 of hearts.

Zhao Haizhe is the biggest on the card, he thought about it, and threw 10,000 dollars up, "Let's get 10,000 first." ”

Because Zhao Haizhe's cards are very good, after all, A and K have been obtained, so he doesn't want to bet too much at the beginning, on the other hand, he can also observe the reaction of other people, and then judge how to bet in the future.

Ji Cheng sat in Zhao Haizhe's hand, the second bet was naturally his turn, to be honest, his kind of card is really not good, especially outside there are two 8s and an A, logically speaking, it is more appropriate to fold the card, but he saw the follow-up card in the hand of the female dealer and knew how to play this one.

So, he pondered how much he had to bet in order to play well, or rather, win more points.

After all, Hong Kong-style five-card focuses on quality rather than quantity, and people who like to play Hong Kong-style five-card will definitely find that some people may win a lot in a row but lose money in the end, and some people only win one or two but win a lot of money.

Therefore, whether you can win a big one is especially important for playing Hong Kong-style fives.

Perhaps seeing that he hadn't bet for a long time, Uncle Huang frowned and said, "Mr. Ji, don't you want to fold again?" ”

Uncle Chen and Uncle Ning glanced at each other, and they both saw the disappointment in their respective eyes, and felt that Ji Cheng's level was really average.

Even Zhao Haizhe was very nervous, for fear that Ji Cheng would continue to fold and make several uncles lose patience.

Not to mention Cheng Hailin, Zhu Siguo and Pang Ming, who were watching the battle not far away, they were anxious to see Ji Cheng lose more than a dozen in a row, as the people brought by Ji Cheng, of course they hoped that Ji Cheng could win more money.

Ji Cheng's hand kept moving on the banknote, and said with a smile: "How come, I'm not thinking about how much money to put on the card." ”

The cards are so good that you still take the initiative to say it?

Everyone laughed a little, feeling that Ji Cheng was lying.

But who knew that just when Uncle Ning was about to say something, Ji Cheng suddenly threw 100,000 US dollars up, "Okay, 100,000." ”

"Huh?"

"The second card adds up to $100,000?"

Everyone looked at each other, and couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, could it be that Ji Chengpai is really good?

The next one is Uncle Ning, if it is other cards, he may have folded at this time, after all, the second card has been added to 100,000 US dollars, indicating that Ji Cheng is likely to have a pair of 8s in his hand, but he is now two spade cards of K and Q, no matter how you look at the follow-up, it is possible to get better cards, hesitated, he also threw 100,000 US dollars out, "Follow." ”

At present, the best possibility to see Ji Cheng's card is a pair of 8, and Uncle Huang has already got a pair of 8, and there is absolutely no reason not to follow, "I will also follow 100,000." ”

Poof, poof, a dozen stacks of dollars were thrown on the table.

Not to mention Uncle Chen, one against 9, he didn't even say a word, and directly threw 100,000 US dollars.

In the end, the problem returned to Zhao Haizhe's side, he had an ace in his hole card, and there was no ace on the outside card, he felt that he could follow it, so he made up 90,000 US dollars.

The female dealer begins to deal the third card.

Ji Cheng is a block 9.

Zhao Haizhe grass flower a.

Uncle Ning Spade J.

Uncle Huang block Q.

Chen Bo is a grass flower 10.

According to the card, the biggest one this time is Uncle Ning, after all, the straight flush card, he pondered a little, "Just play and add 10,000." ”

Although the probability of a straight flush is very high at present, Uncle Ning is still very cautious and does not make a big bet.

Uncle Huang didn't have the strength to grow this round, but he was still confident in a pair of 8 and 10,000 US dollars, "Follow." ”

Uncle Chen did the same, throwing $10,000 up.

Zhao Haizhe has got a pair of aces, and there is absolutely no reason not to follow, and he is relatively bad, deliberately did not raise, and wants Ji Cheng, a person who is not very good at open-faced cards, to continue to follow, and will not be scared away.

Everyone thought that Ji Chengpai would definitely give up if he was so bad.

Who knew that Ji Cheng did not hesitate to throw out 100,000 US dollars again, "Continue 100,000." ”

"Ugh!"

"You still have 100,000 on this card?"

Uncle Ning and the others were a little dizzy.

Ji Cheng was still smiling, "Can't you?" I said my hand was good. ”

What is good about your card, even if the hole card is a 10, but also to fight a j and a q to form a straight, and outside has come out two q a j and a 10, it seems that the probability of how to see the follow-up fight is not too high.

Not to mention that a few people at the card table didn't understand, even Cheng Hailin, Zhu Siguo and Pang Ming, who were sitting not far away watching the game, looked at each other and felt that Ji Cheng was a bit of a fool.

Uncle Ning didn't dare to be as bold as Ji Cheng when he got the three cards of the straight flush, and this time he was really laughed at, "Okay, I'll follow you." ”

He made up the money.

Uncle Huang hesitated slightly, after all, there was an 8 outside, and the probability of him taking three dropped a lot, "Let me think about it." ”

He thought about it for nearly a minute, then finally took a deep breath and followed.

Uncle Chen saw that Uncle Huang followed, and eventually followed.

The dealer-in-dealer began to deal the fourth card.

This time, Ji Cheng is a square A.

Zhao Haizhe is the 10 of hearts.

Uncle Ning is a 10 of spades.

Uncle Huang is a queen of hearts.

Chen Bo is a 10 of diamonds.

On the bright side, Ji Cheng's card collapsed.

Zhao Haizhe is not good, but his hole card is an A, and there is only one K on the entire table, from the probability point of view, the probability of getting a K in the future is still very large, after all, they play only 28 cards in the Hong Kong-style five, and now 20 cards have been dealt.

On the contrary, Uncle Ning made three straight flushes, plus the king of spades in his hand, which is infinitely close to a straight flush, even if he can't get the 9 of spades or the ace of spades, he gets the 8 of spades is also a flush, and his winning chance seems to be the biggest!

Uncle Huang's cards are also amazing, two pairs, a pair of 8 plus a pair of Q, the winning side is also very large.

Chen Bo is also in a similar situation, a pair of 9 plus a pair of 10, although all 10 and a 9 have appeared on the table, but even if he is two pairs of wins, the probability of winning is not small, not to mention that there is a chance to bet on the last 9 to form a gourd.

Uncle Ning made a straight flush, and he bet first, he took a deep breath, "If my card is small, you must still think I'm stealing chickens, like this, 500,000." ”

He is telling others that his hole cards are also spades, not stealing chickens, but actually giving people the feeling of stealing chickens, after all, the fourth card, if the hole cards are really flush, at this time it is better to deceive others to pay more money, but he suddenly increased to 500,000, as if he wanted to scare off others.

If Uncle Huang had been scared away in the last round, but this time he got two pairs, the probability of coming out of the gourd is infinite, how could he give up, "I'll follow you." ”

On the contrary, Uncle Chen hesitated, after all, his last card had to be opened to 9 to be able to win, as for Uncle Ning's straight flush, he didn't pay attention to it at all, because there was a spade 9 in his hand, that is to say, even if Uncle Ning had a spade card in his hand, if he wanted to win the gourd in the end, he had to get the straight flush, and this probability was not as good as him getting the gourd, "I ...... Let's do it. ”

He was still a little unsure.

Zhao Haizhe shook his head and folded, "Forget it, don't follow." ”

Everyone looked at Ji Cheng.

Ji Cheng smiled and said: "500,000 is too small, why don't you play bigger, two million." ”

He counted the money and threw it in stacks.

Uncle Ning was taken aback, but he was a straight flush card type, the probability was very high, and there were no spades 9 and aces of spades on the table, he gritted his teeth, "Follow you." ”

Uncle Huang also didn't hesitate, "I followed too." ”

Although Uncle Chen is more reckless, he is not a fool, and the probability of the final gourd is a bit low, so after thinking about it, he still folded, "Don't follow, let's play with you." ”

The last card is dealt.

Ji Cheng got the last 8 of hearts.

Uncle Ning was not surprised to get the spade card, after all, the ace of spades was in Ji Cheng's hand, the 9 of spades was on Uncle Chen's side, and the 8 of spades was in Uncle Huang's hole card, which was a grass flower king.

Uncle Huang also got a king, which was a heart.

At present, just looking at the cards, Ji Cheng is a pair of 8s, an ace and a 9.

Uncle Ning is a high card, and the biggest is K.

The biggest hand is Uncle Huang, with a pair of queens, kings, and eights.

Uncle Huang knows that his hole card is 8, and he also understands that Ji Cheng cannot form a gourd, and if he wants to win this game, it is only possible to get two pairs, and the hole card must be A, after all, he uses a pair of Q, plus a pair of 8, Ji Cheng even if the hole card is 9, it will not help.

He just threw a million dollars up, "A million." ”

Ji Cheng knew that Uncle Ning would definitely run away with such a large number, so he simply stopped pretending, and threw another two million dollars up, "I'm two million!" ”

Uncle Ning didn't even think about deducting the card.

Uncle Huang judged that it was impossible for Ji Cheng to come out of the gourd, and the only probability of winning was the hole card A, but this probability was very low, he felt that the probability of winning was more than ninety percent, and said with a smile: "The advantage is in me, count how much money there is, I will shuttle you!" ”

Ji Cheng lost 150,000 US dollars before, and he only had 4.85 million left, at the beginning he bet 10,000 US dollars, and then the third and fourth cards each bet 100,000, counting the two million just now, now he still has 2.64 million left, "Okay, I still have 2.64 million, you just add 3.64 million to go in." ”

"Okay." Uncle Huang didn't hesitate to pile up the money, and turned over the hole cards with full momentum, "My hole card is 8, you can't have a gourd, I have two pairs, the biggest is a Q pair, I will eat you!" ”

Zhao Haizhe also said with a wry smile: "The probability of a match is not large, because my hole card is an ace." ”

As he spoke, he turned over his hole cards.

Alas!

Lost!

Pang Ming, Cheng Hailin and Zhu Siguo shook their heads helplessly, they really couldn't understand how Ji Cheng dared to stud with such a bad card.

Uncle Ning and Uncle Chen couldn't help but shake their heads, thinking that Ji Cheng's stealing chicken was too nonsense, but they stole other people's hole cards.

But at this moment, Ji Cheng calmly opened the hole cards, "Really? I'm sorry, but my hole card is an ace! ”
