Chapter 1044: The courage to bet on chips (Part 1)
Texas Hold'em Poker is a very skillful game.
While it has a certain element of luck, it also requires players to compete with each other in a battle of wits every time they make a decision.
To describe how many complex and profound skills and strategies are involved, it cannot be explained in just a few words.
Just for the situation of how many people are better than you if you get a pair in your starting hand, you can calculate the specific probability accurate to three decimal places.
Various mathematical probability formulas, coupled with funds, position, people's hearts, and the gradual development of the situation and other factors,
Preferred by countless players and gamblers around the world, Texas Hold'em is a game that can be learned in a quarter of an hour, but may take a lifetime to master.
And although it can't be said that they have spent a lifetime, they have invested a lot of time in this game, and they are quite good at it. Iber, Janandegu and the casino employee,
At this moment, everyone looked at the cards in front of the black-haired figure in a suit and was stunned.
Especially Ibeir, who thought he had won.
At the beginning of the seventh game, I got AA in my hand. I didn’t hesitate to find an excuse to raise the pot. When I saw the third ace on the flop, I suppressed all expressions of joy.
Don't reveal any flaws, don't scare others away, and lure them to bet more chips. When you see the fourth ace on the turn,
Even the corners of his eyes and brows were trying hard to endure the surprise.
But he never expected that there would be such a development...
"Congratulations, Mr. Fang, you won."
With a flush of spades, a casino employee named Dornier calmly nodded in congratulations, and with a full house of three, seven, and aces, Gianandegu had a completely unexpected look on his face:
"This is really unexpected..."
Iber's expression was the most exciting. His surprise and disbelief were mixed with helpless and absurd silence:
"A Royal Flush..."
The probability of occurrence is less than 3%, but it happens when you have four aces!?
Iber looked at the last public card in disbelief. If the five of spades hadn't been played, the opponent's hand would have accomplished almost nothing.
But if it comes out, this is a complete upset, and it is a super upset that he is almost certain to win.
After the community cards were dealt, even Iber himself felt that he was sure to win, because according to the community cards, there was only one possibility to beat him, a straight flush made up of 3 and 6 of spades.
However, this kind of small hand usually folds directly before the flop, not to mention that he raised to 500,000 in the first round.
Then he never dreamed that someone would actually pinch a 3 and 6 of spades from scratch...
No, you dare to follow this kind of card, what kind of magic is this!??
But his attention was not on the gambling game at all. He faced up to his heart and interrogated himself, and finally found the source of the inexplicable discomfort, like digging away the pebbles in his heart.
My breathing, which had gradually become dull since the beginning of the gambling game, relaxed for the most part.
Fangran felt that his field of vision had broadened again, and he raised his face. As he was waiting for the waiter to take away the chips, he heard Adeline's translation in the bright light,
Eh? I won?
He was as surprised as the other three people, but just like the previous losing rounds, he followed the bet without any idea and looked at the two cards in front of him.
To be honest, Fangran had forgotten what it was just now.
Watching the waiter bring the chips to him, Fangran finally realized this fact, and then he looked at the amount in slight confusion.
No, this is how much we won....
Thanks to the layout of Iber, who thought he was sure of victory, he bet 700,000, Gianandegu bet 800,000, and Dornier bet 600,000.
A total of 2.1 million U.S. dollars in chips were used to make Fangran's wedding dress.
But isn’t this situation going back again...
And there are even more!!
Finding that not only all the money he lost just now was repaid, but also an extra two hundred thousand, Fangran was stunned for a few seconds and then couldn't help but close his eyes and get a slight headache.
I thought about what the point of losing so many games just now while holding back the pain was what was the point.
"What an amazing courage, Mr. Fang."
Looking at Fangran at this time, Iber sighed as if he could afford to lose. He couldn't say that he had been distracted, so Fangran could only respond with a polite and truthful sigh:
"It's just good luck."
And since just now, the female participant who has been staring at Fang Ran in the corner of the casino raised her eyebrows strangely. After making sure that there was no trace of ability,
Uselessly retracting his gaze, he continued to look out the window casually.
Naturally, he felt her gaze and recovered from his heavy breathing. At this time, Fangran almost understood her identity.
It's not a helper brought by the casino to help with the gambling, but a supervisor who comes to monitor whether any participants are using their abilities to cheat.
But to be honest, Fang Ran would rather she was hired by the casino to cheat...
In that case, it was just a duel between participants' abilities like the one just now, and the different nature would not put him under such great pressure at all.
Having said that, even if you just make a fortune, that's fine!
Aren’t you a casino? Shouldn’t you be doing small tricks secretly to steal all the money from the rich!?
Feeling helpless in his heart, Fangran felt that even if they resorted to random tricks, they could weaken the feeling of losing a large amount of money normally.
And the feeling of ‘losing something in reality’ arises.
But unfortunately, unlike in movies and novels, in reality regular casinos do not give out money.
As for the reason, it involves the profit model of the casino just mentioned. It is not about winning players' money at the gambling table. Its profit mainly relies on mathematical probability and various peripheral incomes such as hotels.
Simply put, in all projects, through complex calculations, the casino is dominant in terms of mathematical expectations.
But this advantage is very small, only about 1% to 2%.
But once it is enlarged to the point that the entire casino does not know how many games are won and lost every day, and the percentage of rake taken from the winner of each game, it will become a very huge number.
It doesn’t matter whether you win or lose, as long as people come to gamble, the casino will make money.
Therefore, a world-renowned casino like Las Vegas would never engage in such behavior as Chuqian, which would destroy its signboard.
I don’t know this yet, I just wonder why this casino is so serious,
Fangran looked at the chips in front of him that had not been reduced but had been increased through hard-pressed efforts. He felt a headache and sighed in his heart.
Do we have to start all over again...
Although there is still some dullness left in my breathing, I have found the root cause and it is no longer so uncomfortable.
Watching the bunny girl deal the cards again, Fangran took a deep breath again, and cheered up this time. Although the process may be very difficult and uncomfortable,
But whether it was for himself or to repay the favors he owed, he had to work hard to lose them all tonight.
Then, the eighth round begins with betting, dealing, flop, turn, river, and final showdown.
In this round, Fangran lost 600,000.
Then, in the ninth round, betting, dealing, flop, turn, river...
In this round, Fangran lost five hundred thousand.
Then, in the tenth round, betting, dealing, flop, turn...
Fangran won 1.2 million in this game.
The eleventh round, betting, dealing, flopping...
Fangran lost 700,000 in this game.
Game 12, betting, dealing...
Fangran won another 1.2 million in this game.
Game 13, bet on...
Then Fangran directly won 1.5 million in this game!
Fang Ran: "..."
Fuck! Isn’t this the more you play, the more you get!!!
