Chapter 644: True and False Rules

"Royal ...... Straight flush? Qi Xia frowned, "What kind of card is it?" ”

"Specifically, it's a straight flush, but the biggest hand is ace." Qiao Jiajin said, "From "ten" to "ace", there are five cards in total, and they are all of the same suit, this straight flush is the largest among all straight flushes, so it is called "royal flush". ”

Qi Xia looked at the ground monkey who was shuffling the cards on the other side of the table, and thought about it in combination with Qiao Jiajin's words.

Can a straight flush exist in this game?

This game uses traditional festivals and 24 solar terms, and there are four seasons very cleverly, which means that if you really look at the rules of "straight flush", if you want to make up the biggest hand in this game, you should need five numbers, and these five numbers are all from the same season.

At this time, all the cards resurfaced in Qi Xia's mind.

From "Beginning of Spring" to "Valley Rain" is a season.

From the beginning of summer to the great heat of the summer.

From the beginning of autumn to the fall of frost, it is a season.

From the beginning of winter to the great cold, it is a season.

This step was a bit complicated, and it took a little time, Qi Xia turned all the cards into numbers in his mind, and finally added twelve "festivals".

"Wait a minute...... Twelve Cards? ”

Qi Xia frowned slightly, feeling that there seemed to be more than twelve traditional festivals in his memory, but why were there less?

He made a list of the traditional festivals he could think of.

Spring Festival, Lantern Festival.

Sheri Festival, Shangsi Festival, Cold Food Festival.

Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Qixi Festival, Zhongyuan Festival.

Mid-Autumn Festival, Chung Yeung Festival, Xia Yuan Festival.

Finally, Laba and Chinese New Year's Eve.

Not counting the traditional festivals of various ethnic minorities, there are at least 14 well-known festivals alone.

But why are there only twelve festivals in this deck?

Are there two festivals that, for some reason, were eliminated?

Qi Xia quickly locked in the "Qingming Festival".

This festival is very interesting, in this "synodic month", the "Qingming Festival" will only be like the "Tanabata", and the word "Qingming" will be written.

However, in addition to being a festival, "Qingming" is also one of the 24 solar terms, so there will only be one card with "Qingming" written on the card, which can be taken from the category of traditional festivals, and is not regarded as one of the festivals, but as solar terms.

In this way, there is only one more festival, but which of the remaining festivals is completely different from the others?

"Cold Food Festival......" Qi Xia slowly opened his eyes, only the Cold Food Festival was completely different from other festivals in his memory.

All festivals have a specific date on the lunar calendar, but the Cold Food Festival is not.

Its date is the one hundred and fifth day or one hundred and sixth day after the winter solstice, or the day or two before the Qingming Festival every year.

For this special festival, the existence of the "Cold Food Festival" does not make the game go smoothly, so it can only be abandoned.

In this way, the remaining festivals are twelve, plus all the solar terms, a total of thirty-six cards, now all the cards are clear, should be able to use everyone's "open cards" and the "community cards" in the center of the table, roughly deduce the "hidden cards" of the ground monkey, and the probability of victory is greater.

After listing all the solar terms and festivals in his mind, Qi Xia transformed them into groups of numbers in his mind.

This step was quite computationally intensive and took him a lot of time.

Soon after, Qi Xia only had a large number of numbers left in his mind, and all the numbers were divided into four rows according to the season, one group each for spring, summer, autumn and winter.

But after counting all the cards, the situation is still a bit strange.

Combined with the "royal flush" mentioned by Qiao Jiajin at the beginning, although it is theoretically possible to treat a certain season as a suit and make up the "straight flush" of that season, Qi Xia actually found a strange problem after looking at all the dates of the four seasons.

No single season's date numbers make up a straight flush.

In the first half of the year, there are a large number of "six", "two" and "one" in the date, and in the second half of the year, there will be a large number of "eight", "two" and "three".

The relatively monotonous numbers make combinations much less likely.

Qi Xia felt that the situation in front of him was a bit interesting, although the ancients would never have expected that one day someone would gamble according to the rules of Texas Hold'em with the date of the 24 solar terms, but they seemed to have deliberately avoided the possibility of a "straight flush".

There is a lack of "five" in spring, "three" in summer, "six" in autumn, and "four" in winter.

In any case, it is impossible to have five numbers lined up in the same season, even with traditional festivals.

This interesting situation actually made Qi Xia feel a little wonderful, as if he was in contact with the generation that compiled the calendar thousands of years ago.

"Fist ......" Qi Xia came back to his senses and asked Qiao Jiajin, "Except for the 'Royal Flush', what is the rest of the order of size?" ”

Qiao Jiajin reached out and touched his chin like Qi Xia, then took his hand away in disgust, came back to his senses and said, "The royal flush is an ordinary flush below." ”

Qi Xia nodded after hearing this, and the situation of a straight flush could already be ruled out.

"Below the "straight flush" is the "four-of-a-kind." Qiao Jiajin explained, "'Four-of-a-kind' means that there are four identical numbers, which is the form of your win. ”

"Understood."

"And below the "four" is "Flohaus", also called "gourd". Qiao Jiajin stretched out his two hands, three fingers on his left hand, and two fingers on his right hand, "Generally speaking, it is three plus two, one of the numbers has three, and the other number has a pair." ”

"Okay."

Then there's the "flush," which means that five numbers come from the same suit. Flush is followed by a "straight", which means that you don't need to pay attention to the suit, as long as the numbers can be straight together and there are five cards. Next, according to the largest to the smallest, it is the ordinary "three of a kind", "two pairs", and "one pair". ”

After hearing this, Qi Xia quickly thought about the possibilities of the various cards, and quickly frowned: "It seems that the so-called "Texas Hold'em" rules are not applicable in this game. ”

"Shh......?"

"There are some combinations that are hard to come up with in poker that can be easily achieved in the synodic moon, such as flushes." Qi Xia explained, "If you can draw a 'winter solstice', then the four numbers 'one-one-two-three' will all come from 'winter', and there is a high probability that they will form a 'flush', so the weight of the flush should not be very high. ”

"In that case...... Qiao Jiajin also narrowed his eyes, "There are indeed some variants of Texas Hold'em, and the adjustment rules will change due to the different number of cards." ”

"So what we're going to do next is to come up with a variety of cards and get the monkeys to tell us the size of the cards."
