Chapter 1037 – Miscalculation
“Well..! I wish you the same good luck today.” Halbert gave Zhuang Rui a deep look and turned around to sit back in his chair.
Although the video recording of that Macau gambling game was all washed away by King of Gamblers He afterward, but with Halbert’s ability, with a little bit of effort, he was able to inquire about Zhuang Rui’s style of gambling very clearly from other people’s mouths.
Zhuang Rui gambling style is very simple, two words are enough to summarize: luck!
From the first time he gambled with Stevenson, Zhuang Rui never saw the bottom card from beginning to end, and the second king-to-king flush was even luckier than ever, making Jervis return home in defeat.
“Damn, it’s true that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes ah? Dude isn’t this lying down and getting shot?”
Inexplicably more than one enemy, Zhuang Rui heart is very depressed, yellow gambling and drug these three are triad stained, Zhuang Rui do not want to be plainly missed.
Zhuang Rui does not know is that Halbert more upset, a Jervis let him direct loss of eight hundred million U.S. dollars, the indirect loss is basically out of the competition in Macau gambling license.
As a veteran gambling tycoon, Halbert has lost face, if now in Africa rather than Las Vegas, he does not mind Zhuang Rui as a punching bag, hit Zhuang Rui’s head.
Fortunately, Zhuang Rui is the eye of the sky and not his heart, otherwise if you know Halbert’s thoughts, Zhuang Rui will let Peng Fei secretly kill him, he does not want to come back to the desert island drifting again.
Halbert’s questioning is just an episode, but Zhuang Rui’s name was reported, but by the attention of the entire gambling world.
The twelve companies participating in this gambling license competition all had special seats in the gambling hall, slightly shaking his head, Zhuang Rui sat down next to the fourth wife, although he sat down, he was still the one who received the most attention in the gambling hall.
Not only are those casino bosses curious about Zhuang Rui, it is these gambling kings who participated in the gambling game this time, they are equally interested in this mysterious oriental man.
To know, Stevenson and Jervis were not embroidered pillows, to win them simply by luck was almost impossible, the chances were even smaller than when the United States opened a 300 million jackpot last month.
The time quickly reached eight o’clock, a person who seemed to be presiding over this gambling game stood up, took a microphone, and said, “Alright, everyone is here, so there is no need to talk about the rules, according to our prior agreement, the companies represented by the last three people left behind will receive the three gambling licenses issued by Macau this time.”
“This is Hank, the owner of the MGM Grand Hotel and the initiator of this gambling game.”
Mrs. Four whispered in Zhuang Rui’s ear, knowing that Zhuang Rui knew nothing about the gambling world, she introduced him to as many characters and rules as possible.
After his short speech, Hank handed the microphone to the emcee beside him, while eight lotteries walked in from the door and stood in the middle of each of the two gambling tables.
“Will Mr. Jessup please come forward and draw, as you all know, Mr. Jessup is the 2001 World Series of Poker Tournament Champion.”
“Will Mr. Charteris please come forward and draw, Mr. Charteris is the 1999 Texas Hold’em King of Gamblers Challenge Champion.”
“Will Mr. Clayderman please come forward to draw, Mr. Clayderman won the 2003 King of Gamblers Championship.”
Listening to the master of ceremonies introducing the gambling kings, Zhuang Rui almost yawned with boredom, this is not a show, and there are no frenzied spectators, so is it necessary to introduce in such detail?
However, this kind of introduction is also necessary, because every time a person is called out, the “King of Gamblers” or Mr. Champion has to go to the front to draw a numbered ball.
There are a total of 12 numbers in the box, and the six people who drew a single number and the six people who drew a double number will be divided into two tables for Texas Hold’em poker betting.
Since Texas Hold’em is quite time-consuming to gamble on, sometimes taking more than ten minutes for a single deal, the game was divided into two days, with each day being 12 hours long.
At the end of the day, the crowd’s chips will be counted and six people will be eliminated, while the remaining six people will continue the game tomorrow, also after 12 hours, according to the chips to allocate the ownership of the three Macau gambling cards.
“Please ask Mr. Rui …… Zhuang to come forward to draw lots, well, Mr. Rui Zhuang is …… the one who once defeated the gambling kings Stevenson and Jervis.”
In to Zhuang Rui’s name, very let the emcee tangled some, in the Zhuang Rui name straightened out, only to find that Zhuang Rui in addition to the two gambling games, and then there is no any competition or gambling records, at the moment can only Zhuang Rui’s those two battle records out.
Some people on the scene laughed lightly, almost everyone here has studied Zhuang Rui’s gambling methods, and finally came to a very unanimous conclusion, that is, Zhuang Rui’s luck is good against the sky.
But this thing of luck, today there may be tomorrow there is no more, almost 99 percent of the people in the field do not believe that Zhuang Rui’s luck can be maintained for several years?
Zhuang Rui didn’t care about the laughter on the field, walked to the draw and took out the number ball and looked at it, couldn’t help but smile, handed the number ball to the emcee and said: “Seven? Not bad, my lucky number.”
“Oh, good luck.”
The emcee smiled at Zhuang Rui, and then put the numbered ball into the single row, after a few minutes, the drawing of lots was completed, and Zhuang Rui, the “newcomer in the gambling world”, also sat down on the seat that belonged to him.
Texas Hold’em is an extremely popular gambling method in Europe and the United States, a gambling table less than 2 people, more can accommodate 22 people, and generally by 2 to 10 people to participate.
Texas Hold’em, like Stud, requires the removal of the king and queen, and has a total of 52 playing cards, with two cards for each player as the “base card” and five public cards dealt out by the dealer one after another face up.
At the beginning of the game, each player will be dealt two face down cards. After all the betting rounds, if you still can’t tell the winner, the game will enter the “showdown” stage, which means that the remaining players will show their respective cards in order to compare, and the one who holds the biggest card will win.
As for the size of the Texas Hold’em poker cards, and Zhuang Rui once played the pokies are exactly the same, the difference is that there are two bottom cards, and can be more than one person at the same time to reveal the bottom card, which for Zhuang Rui does not have any impact, is a name card is not, he can also know what cards the other hand.
“Hm? What is this for? It turns out to be chips.”
After Zhuang Rui and others sat at the table, the casino staff pushed more than ten carts into the gambling hall, behind them there were also seven or eight security guards with live guns and nuclear bombs, and Zhuang Rui saw that there was a box placed on each cart.
A waiter put the box in front of Zhuang Rui, by the back of a special person with a key to open the box, Zhuang Rui see, full of all the chips.
Like Macau casinos, the chips in Las Vegas are cash, so the casinos are very careful, and the transportation of chips has always been strictly guarded.
“1 million a piece, or dollars, shit, this is ……1000 million chips? This is what is called a large sum of money ah!”
Zhuang Rui picked up the chips and looked at them, these chips were only categorized into two denominations, 1 million and 10 million respectively, compared to the two gambling games he had participated in before, this was truly a rich man’s game.
“Gentlemen, this bet is in the form of unlimited bet Texas Hold’em, the blind bet for each game is 1 million dollars, good luck.”
The emcee announced the start of the bet after slightly explaining the rules, Zhuang Rui listened very carefully, after all, he had never played Texas Hold’em before, and if any jokes were to come out in a while, it would be a lot of fun.
The so-called unlimited bet Texas Hold’em, refers to each round of betting process, the amount of bets without any limit, but if you want to raise the bet, raise the amount of at least twice the amount of the player in front of you bet.
Compared with the pressure bet limit Texas Hold’em, unlimited bet Texas Hold’em is undoubtedly a more risky, but more challenging and exciting game.
This way Zhuang Rui very like, it can let Zhuang Rui as much as possible to win some dollars back, of course, that must be the case of good cards, after all, more than one person to open the bottom of the card, want to blackmail people away, is not a very easy thing.
The Dutchman, after taking out a new deck of cards for the crowd to examine, unsealed and shuffled the cards, and then placed two dark cards in front of each person, which is also different from Stud, making the uncertainty of the bottom of the deck become even greater.
“Hey, buddy’s luck is really good.”
After Zhuang Rui had seen the bottom card, he nonchalantly “looked” at the hidden cards of the remaining five people on the table, and then “looked” at the remaining cards according to the order in which they were dealt, and quickly deduced that he had the biggest hand in this game.
When the third card was dealt, by Zhuang Rui’s top action, which is what it means to call a bet in Texas Hold’em, that 2003 gambling king was careful to throw out a million dollars in chips.
“Oh, I’ll call and big you another million dollars.”
Following the unlimited bet, Zhuang Rui threw out two million dollars in chips, and his behavior made the people at the table look sideways.
Generally speaking, the second person would call the cards in order, while very few directly raised their bets, because now it was only just three cards that were dealt.
Zhuang Rui shrugged his shoulders and said, “Dude I rely on luck, not much skill, sorry guys!”
“I fold.”
“I fold too, never seen such a person.”
Behind Zhuang Rui, the two King of Gamblers, whose cards and decks were not good, covered their name tags, this game will last for 12 hours, they have enough time to slowly look for opportunities.
“Fold …… fold?”
Zhuang Rui suddenly realized a very bad thing, this was not a two-person bet, the order of cards dealt was completely predictable.
But now there are six people on the table, as long as someone folds their cards, the order of the cards dealt next will be completely changed.
