Chapter 272: Show off your skills
Jung Man looked at me triumphantly again.
When the waiter punches out an eight-cylinder.
Maitreya Buddha and I pushed the cards at the same time, and said at the same time: "Harmony!" ”
There is no dealer in this game.
There is no such thing as a move from the southeast to the northwest, so we won at the same time and tied the game.
No one thought that Maitreya Buddha and I would be able to draw two games at the same time, and the third game would definitely be poker, which is also Maitreya Buddha's strong point, and I am not sure.
Someone was going to announce the start of the third inning, and I offered to take a break.
Regardless of whether Maitreya Buddha agreed or not, I walked directly outside the boat.
It was the high seas, it was raining, the wind was strong, the waves were constantly lapping on the bow of the boat, and in the wind, I nodded a cigarette, and the smoke was quickly blown away by the wind.
I looked at the endless sea, which gave me a deep sense of fear, with no direction and all around me a man-eating sea.
Su Yan also walked out of it, holding the guardrail with both hands, her hair tangled in the merciless sea breeze, she said: "Ah Li, I know you are very nervous, and there is a kind of expectation, in fact, sometimes winning or losing will not take you to the end of the truth." You think about it, don't you? ”
I nodded.
Every time I find out about my dad's past, it's not because of gambling.
Even if the bet wins, the truth that those people tell me is very vague and I don't know if it's true or not.
I really want to know what kind of person my dad is.
However, now it seems that my dad is probably a heinous person, and there are very few people who say that he is good, and that my mother is a third person. Even, sometimes, I'm afraid to find out the truth, if like in "Dragon Babu", the big villain that the protagonist is looking for is actually his biological father.
Psychological endurance is small.
It's possible to vomit blood!
Su Yan continued: "I can see that you think too much, and you always think about winning and losing!" Actually, you don't have to think about it so much, you only think about one thing, and that is to win, once when we were a thousand Li Jiatai, you never thought about losing, isn't it the same now? ”
I smiled wryly, "Then do you think I can win?" ”
Su Yan said firmly: "Yes!" ”
"That's my master, when the cat was a tiger, he kept a hand!"
"But when the tiger and the cat are facing each other in the needle, does the cat have a chance of winning? The cat can win, there must be enough space, if in the cage, the cat does not have a chance to win! ”
I suddenly realized, "Thank you, I didn't even think about such a simple truth!" ”
……
After smoking.
I walked back to the cabin with Su Yan.
Everyone else sat in their chairs and whispered something.
Maitreya Buddha stood in front of the window and looked at the waves outside.
Rong Man saw me coming back and stood up, "The surname is Zhou, you are a person who can't afford to lose, it's better to take the initiative to admit defeat if you are afraid of losing, if you admit defeat now, I will leave you to eat with one hand, before I change my mind!" There's no need to procrastinate! ”
I looked at Rong Man coldly and ignored him.
Maitreya Buddha also turned around and walked to the table.
I pressed my hands on the table and said, "Master, what do we bet on?" ”
Maitreya Buddha replied, "It seems that you are right to rest, I can no longer see the panic in your eyes, although you are nervous, but there are no distractions in your mind." ”
There was a storm in my chest.
He is really an old man, and he can see people's hearts from his eyes.
I couldn't let his words affect my mood and asked, "What are we betting on?" ”
Maitreya looked at the table, "Let's poker!" New city Hong Kong style five, one finger to touch the card, who is bigger who wins! ”
The rules of the Seazen Hong Kong style five cards are different from the ordinary Hong Kong style five cards.
Consists of five decks of cards.
The biggest card is no longer a royal flush, but Tarzan.
Tarzan is five aces of spades of the same suit.
This game is more popular in underground casinos in the New Territories of Hong Kong, and it is also a product of the psychology of gamblers. There are a lot of big names in this, so even if you catch Simei, you are very likely to lose, in order to make people bet big.
However, this kind of gameplay has only just developed two years ago.
It has not yet spread to the mainland, only a small area of epidemic.
If Long Yikai hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known.
Based on this, Maitreya Buddha is definitely not the down-and-out old man I once saw living in an urban village, he must have been to Hong Kong and practiced this kind of play, otherwise he would not have brought it up. Now it seems that he had expected me to go and meet him secretly.
His behavior bewildered me even more!
As my teacher for ten years, he hid everything.
Maitreya Buddha said to me, "Disciple, I can tell you the rules!" ”
I interrupted him, "No, I understand!" ”
He didn't talk nonsense either, "Let's start then." ”
The waiter had finished picking the poker and pushed the cards in front of us, "Two, please check the cards!" ”
Maitreya Buddha picked up the cards and spread them face up with one hand, and the playing cards showed a perfect arc, with the suit revealed between each card. Of course he doesn't show off his skills in front of me, he's a card.
Although the cards have fewer points, a large number of flushes of the same value.
But that doesn't mean it's easier to memorize the card order, and those who haven't practiced it will feel dazzled.
A long period of memory practice makes people have a habit that if the first card is the ace of spades, then the remaining cards will not appear as the ace of spades, and the subconscious of the brain will ignore this card, but now it is different, it is likely that there will be a situation where the jack of hearts and the queen of hearts are the jack of hearts.
It's very easy to make mistakes.
Because of the draw in the first two games, Maitreya Buddha found that I was not so easy to win, so he used this method of play.
After he finished checking the cards, he pushed it in front of me again and said, "You come!" ”
I didn't take the card, but said lightly, "I won't look at it, so be it." ”
It's not that I pretend to be an X, because I have practiced this kind of card later, so the flush card is not difficult for me, but my move is enough to surprise everyone, and ordinary people feel that if they don't even touch the cards, they can't make a thousand.
Old Thousand Bureaus.
How can you win if you don't have a thousand?
Maitreya Buddha looked at me with some surprise.
The waiter put away the cards and began to shuffle them, only once.
He lays the cards flat on the table and lets us draw them.
Again, I said, "Bring me the basin, I'm going to wash my hands." ”
Every time before the start, I wash my hands, thinking that I have come up with a thousand, but no one can catch my thousand.
I rubbed it for more than ten minutes.
The waiter asked us, "Two, who will do it first?" ”
I said, "Before chopping his hands, he was the master, and he was the first!" ”
Maitreya Buddha didn't have any change in expression, just looked at me with some confusion, and tapped lightly on the card with one finger, and the card flew in front of him on the table.
I also played a card in the same way.
The first card is face down.
None of us looked at the cards.
The second card starts with a card face-up.
Maitreya Buddha showed up, it was a King of spades.
I'm a queen of hearts.
He was very confident and looked at me.
The waiter said, "King of spades, please draw cards!" ”
Maitreya Buddha's finger randomly clicked on the card, and it was another king of spades.
And I was an ace of hearts.
Until now, he didn't look at his hole cards.
I nervously lifted the corner of my hole card, and it was an ace of hearts.
It's a suited pair, but I'm still small compared to his hand, because the first card he drew was also the King of spades, so he's now a suited of a kind.
In the same way, he knows my cards.
The service said: "Pair of kings, please draw cards!" ”
Maitreya Buddha didn't draw cards right away, but said to me, "Apprentice, it's really not interesting for us to draw cards like this, so let's also add some bets." ”
I nodded, "Okay." What do you say? ”
"I know you have a few bowls in your hand, why don't you take your bowl out and bet, if you are going to lose, you hand over the bowl, you can save one hand, one bowl and one finger, I think, if you bet on both, your hands will be saved."
He really had a good idea.
I lost, I was able to keep my hands.
However, this method of betting is a bolt from the blue for Rong Man.
I lost, and I just had to hand over the bowl to keep my hands.
If they win, they will have to cut off their hands and feet.
There are such good things in this world.
But the game has already begun.
She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say a word.
Maitreya Buddha is not invited by spending money, she is not his financial master, he can come, mainly because he wants the bowl in my hand, if he interferes with him halfway, the final result is the worst is her.
I won and was able to come out unscathed.
I lost, again unscathed.
Bowl, very important to Maitreya Buddha.
How could I possibly let him get it easily, "Thank you, Master, for giving me a chance." Bet! ”
Maitreya Buddha said, "Okay. ”
I asked rhetorically, "You are not afraid that I will break my word, and the bowl is not on me." ”
Maitreya Buddha said lightly: "As long as you live." It seems to be a bland sentence, but it is full of threats.
I couldn't help but look at the person next to him, my kung fu master.
It turned out that when Maitreya Buddha was chatting with him, they thought I was asleep, and Maitreya Buddha called him an old wish. I think his real name is Zhu Youyang.
He appeared with Maitreya Buddha to keep him safe.
But there is a saying that no matter how high your martial arts are, you are afraid of kitchen knives.
Maitreya Buddha drew cards again, and the action flowed, showing a king of spades again.
He's now four kings of spades, and if I'm going to win, I'm going to have to draw the next king of spades, and he's four kings of the flush that aren't as big as my aces of hearts.
I also tapped my fingers to the cards.
The moment the cards popped up, they floated up in the air, and the rules were stacked on top of my cards, and it was still an ace of hearts.
Now we're all four-card.
He knew that by taking away my aces of hearts, the cards would still be big.
But no matter how much I draw, I will lose!
He was bigger than me, and it was not my turn to make the first move, and all of a sudden, sweat broke out on my forehead.
I lost, although I saved my hands and handed over the bowl, but I couldn't retaliate against Nanqirui and Rong Man, this was not the result I wanted, "Bring me water, I want to wash my hands!" ”
After hearing this, Rong Man laughed.
She thought I was washing my hands because I was nervous and wanted to cool down.
But Maitreya Buddha didn't think so, he always thought that I was trying to make a thousand by washing my hands.
I washed again for more than ten minutes.
Maitreya Buddha smiled when he saw me wash my hands, "Apprentice, how many fingers you can keep depends on how many bowls you have in your hand!" Saying that, his fingers flew in front of the card, and a card was actually held by him on his fingertips, and it was spinning rapidly, and his fingers suddenly returned, and the card slowly fell to the ground.
Ace of hearts!
