Chapter 914: Stealing the chicken but losing the rice
On the gambling table, there is a behavior called "stealing the chicken", which is a homophony of "speculation". It refers to oneself getting a small card, but using a large bet to defraud the other party, so that the other party will take the initiative to abandon the card.
Win the bet.
This is what Zhuang Rui is doing now. He pushed out 8 million chips in the first hand. In fact, it was like asking Jervis not to follow. But he didn't expect that Jervis knew that he had at least one pair of cards, so he wouldn't
Giving up so easily.
"The third card is Mr. Jervis's q, Mr. Zhuang's 10, Mr. Jervis's words..." The gambling game continues, and the card is Jervis' big.
"10 million..."
Jervis is far more sophisticated than Zhuang Rui thought. He wants to use the trick of "stealing chicken" to defraud such a world gambling king. That gambling king is too worthless. Jervis, who seems to have figured out Zhuang Rui's background, immediately
A stack of chips was rolled out.
"and……"
Zhuang Rui squeezed out a follow word through his teeth. This was only the third card. If he ran away, including the ante bet, he would have lost 8.5 million in vain. Zhuang Rui wanted to cheat again on the fifth card.
Take Jervis.
After all, Zhuang Rui now has 200 million more chips than Jervis. Even if he loses this hand, there is still a chance next, and if the other party decides that he likes to "steal chickens", then he can tempt Jervis
Stud opportunity.
Zhuang Rui's guess was correct. Before this bet, Jervis had asked many questions about Zhuang Rui's last bet. He simply didn't believe that Zhuang Rui didn't look at the hole cards. People with good eyesight and gambling skills are in trouble.
In the blink of an eye, you can roughly see the hole cards through a small angle.
Through his understanding of Zhuang Rui, Jervis knew that Zhuang Rui liked to bluff cards and steal chickens. Stevenson had fallen into this situation several times, so Jervis would not be easily frightened by Zhuang Rui.
"Mr. Jervis still speaks..."
After the fourth card was dealt, Jervis already had a pair of 3 cards, while Zhuang Rui had 10, j and a, and the land card was a small nine. Regardless of the card face or hole card, they all lost.
Jervis.
Jervis knocked on the table with his hand and said: "Zhuang, you have an ace, and I have a pair of 3s. Although the pair of 3s are small, they are still bigger than a. Let's do this, 20 million..."
Jervis was now 60% certain that Zhuang Rui was cheating, so he pushed out another 20 million chips. If Zhuang Rui ran away, he would win 18.5 million. If Zhuang Rui continued to follow, he would get the last hand.
Got it figured out.
"I follow..."
Zhuang Rui said expressionlessly, and also pushed out 20 million chips. Now the bets between both parties on the gambling table have reached 38.5 million, and this is only the first game of Stud.
On the fifth card, Zhuang Rui got a small seven, and Jervis got a small four. However, in terms of card size, Jervis had the bigger card, which made Jervis hesitate a little.
His hole card is Zhang Wu, which means that his current card is a pair of 3, 4, 5 and q, while Zhuang Rui's famous card is 7, 10, j and a. As long as the hole cards are randomly paired,
Jervis is sure to lose, so Jervis doesn't dare to make big bets with such a small pair.
"For another 10 million, you have to show Mr. Zhuang your trump card for a pair of 3, right?"
Jervis pretended to be nonchalant and pushed out 10 million chips, but he was actually a little nervous inside.
"Haha, you want to beat me with a pair of 3, Jervis, as long as I match any pair of cards, I will beat you, right?"
Zhuang Rui sneered, then pushed out a pile of 50 million chips in front of him, and shouted: "I will give you 10 million, and I will give you 40 million more!"
Zhuang Rui has clearly seen that Jervis's trump card is not three of a kind or two pairs. In other words, his final card is a pair of three. In stud, this is only a card that is only higher than a single a, which is considered a comparison.
It's smaller.
Zhuang Rui just wants to steal the chicken. If Jervis doesn't follow, he will receive 48.5 million in vain. Even if he does, he can't afford to lose. On the contrary, it will make Jervis feel like he is used to "stealing the chicken".
Feel.
"No, this young man seems to be stealing chicken..."
"Yeah, the look in his eyes doesn't seem very confident..."
"Perhaps it was to confuse Jervis, I don't know..."
People in the casino may not be able to grasp Zhuang Rui's expression, but those in the private room can see the enlarged close-up of Zhuang Rui's facial expression. For a while, everyone started talking.
To be honest, Zhuang Rui's acting skills are really not that good. His eyes basically reveal his guilty side, and even the people watching can see it.
Of course, this is Zhuang Rui's true performance. He is not afraid that Jervis will see that he is stealing the chicken, and it doesn't matter even if he loses this card.
Only in that way can the opponent let down their guard. Otherwise, it will not be easy to compete with the opponent when you catch a big card.
Now, almost all the pressure on the gambling table is on Jervis. If you don't follow...the tens of millions you have previously given to Zhuang Rui are in vain. If you follow, the chance of losing is still very high.
Now is the time to test Jervis's gambling skills.
Dozens of eyes in the hall were all focused on Jervis at this moment, waiting for him to make a decision.
"40 million, Mr. Zhuang is so brave. He dares to place such a big bet on a single card. I have a pair of 3s, what are you afraid of? I will follow you..."
Jervis suddenly laughed. People watching the fight in the private room could see the panic in Zhuang Rui's eyes. With Jervis's eyesight, they could clearly see that Zhuang Rui was bluffing just now.
Opportunities were all around him, and if Jervis couldn't seize them, he would be claiming to be the world's gambling king, so he immediately pushed out a pile of stacked chips in front of him.
Tens of millions of chips collided with each other on the gambling table, making a clattering sound. This time, not only the people watching the screen in the private room noticed it, but also the people in the casino also noticed Zhuang Rui's expression, which seemed a bit...
Not very pretty.
"It's bad, why is Xiao Rui so impulsive? You dare to steal the chicken without even a pair of cards. It's bad, it's bad..."
Qin Laoer, who was watching the game in the private room, lost his composure at this time and muttered something, as if he would be better than Zhuang Rui if he played.
"When a master gambles with cards, it is better to use less to steal chickens. The cards are smaller than others, so don't show off. It's like the stock market. You can use the empty city strategy, but if you don't do it well, you will lose your wife and lose your troops...
"
Liu Daheng on the side also said that he was involved in finance. Even when he saw this gambling game, he could think of the stock market, but he didn't mean to ridicule Zhuang Rui.
"Damn it, you really dare to follow me, I will continue to deceive you..."
Half of the look on Zhuang Rui's face was fake, but the other half was real. This Jervis was very difficult to deal with. He actually had the courage to pay 40 million for a pair of mistresses, which was far from what Stevenson could compare to.
"According to the rules, the other party has called. Mr. Zhuang, you can open the cards..."
Before Zhuang Rui could think about it, the croupier standing in the middle of the gaming table spoke. As soon as he said this, everyone in the venue turned their eyes to Zhuang Rui's hidden hole card.
This time, Zhuang Rui did not play the trick of relying on luck without looking at the hole cards. You can do this once, but if you play it too many times, it will be useless. On the contrary, it will attract people's suspicion. Therefore, Zhuang Rui just opened the hole cards and looked at them.
One glance.
"I lost!"
Zhuang Rui acted like a bachelor just like Jervis just now. He directly threw his hole cards towards the dealer and admitted defeat.
However, there seemed to be something wrong with his ability to discard cards. When the card was in the air, it rolled over. When it landed on the gambling table, it turned bottom up. Everyone could see clearly that it was a nine of diamonds.
.
There was a pair of 3s on one side, and all single cards on the other side. Now Jervis did not need to reveal his hole cards, and he was already winning against Zhuang Rui, and everyone in the court suddenly became commotion.
"The King of Gamblers is the King of Gamblers, he's awesome..."
"No, you dare to follow a pair of mistresses to the end..."
"It wouldn't be possible if it were me. That young man's card would be better than a pair of 3's as long as he puts together a pair..."
Everyone saw the changes on the gambling table clearly, and they all understood that Zhuang Rui was trying to cheat and cheat in front of the world's gambling king. Everyone felt that Zhuang Rui was a bit overestimating his abilities.
Liu Minghui and others sitting behind Jervis had happy faces. From this round of stud betting, it can be seen that Zhuang Rui's gambling skills are really a bit unsatisfactory. Brother Hui asked himself:
I can beat that kid.
"Zhuang, my luck seems to be better for you. I am one to three, but you can't make a pair..."
Jervis did not miss the opportunity to attack Zhuang Rui. After the dealer gave him the chips, he also followed Zhuang Rui's example and started stacking them one by one in front of him.
"What's the matter? I just won a hand. Now, let's play stud directly. Do you dare?!"
Zhuang Rui seemed to be stimulated by Jervis. He slapped the table with his hands and stood up with a provocative expression on his face. Everyone saw this and shook their heads inwardly. This young man was too reckless.
"I ask for a 15-minute break..."
Before Jervis could accept the challenge, a voice sounded from behind Zhuang Rui, but it was Qin Haoran who saw that the momentum was not right and quickly stopped.
The main dealer glanced at Qin Haoran and said: "I'm sorry, a break can only be requested by people from both sides of the bet. Mr. Zhuang, Mr. Jervis, if there is no objection, the game will continue..."
"Of course there is no problem, you can continue..."
Zhuang Rui seemed to be in a state of confusion. Jervis wanted to beat the drowned dog, so naturally he refused to rest.
"Xiao Rui, please take a break. I have something to say to you..." Qin Haoran couldn't just watch his son-in-law continue to lose. In his opinion, Zhuang Rui was just hot-headed now.
"Okay, I think I need to take a break, I proposed to take a 15-minute break..."
The father-in-law shouted from behind, but Zhuang Rui still wanted to give him some face, even though it would disrupt his plan.
