The Magician of Clow

Chapter 1219 Respiratory Obstruction

"Hey~ It looks like I'm lucky tonight."

Sitting at the opposite corner to Fangran, Giannandgu, who held a K in his hand, shrugged his shoulders feigning congratulations, but everyone present except Fangran could hear his self-mockery,

After all, there is no muzzle +1, no median +1, +2, in a game with only four players,
The advantages of the banker position are much less obvious than in a nine-handed table.

After confirming that Gyanandergu, the one with the highest card among the four, was the dealer of the first round, Elise pressed a button similar to a chip and pushed it in front of him.

Then the casino employee opposite him looked at Fangran, nodded slightly after seeing that Fangran didn't say anything, and then rolled out 1/4 of the chip.

"After the dealer decides, the left side of the dealer's seat becomes the small blind and the big blind in order to make mandatory bets to ensure that the game has an ante, so that everyone will not fold because of bad cards and cause meaningless rounds,"

"The big blind is double the small blind. Seeing that you didn't express your opinion, he bet 1000 US dollars based on 1% of the [-] million bet size tonight."

Banker, Big Blind, Small Blind, Forced Bet.
Fangran, who was still wondering why the casino employee looked at him, heard Adeline's explanation, and felt all kinds of information in his mind confused for a while,

"So young master, you should now double his chips."

I don't understand at all, so I can't understand, Fangran can only listen to her calm and indifferent voice, take out bets from the hill-like pile of chips in front of him,

Then, looking at the 10000 denomination number, he grasped half of the 20 coins, and the entire $[-] blind left his hand.

Seeing that the big and small blinds have been placed, the bunny girl croupier in front of the gaming table began to shuffle the cards with neat voices and professional standards.

A piece of poker seems to come alive, flying from one hand to the other with beautiful patterns like those in the movie, and finally turns back into a square stack of poker,

With the skilled and tacit cooperation with another bunny girl, the cards were slid across the green table, and they were dealt clockwise to each person's two folded hands as before.

Texas Hold'em, including the final showdown stage, a total of five rounds,

"Ha, is it the muzzle when it comes up?"

His eyes kept admiring the half-covered buttocks of the bunny girl around him, and Iber also followed Giannand Gu's jokes,
Unlike the "perfect game" of Go, this game is an "imperfect game" with limited and unequal information.
A lot of its information is hidden in the dark, you need to guess and infer, you need to observe the situation, and you play more with your opponents than with your cards.
Infer information from every sentence and every small action of the opponent, and provide calculation basis for the next action to be taken, which is far more important than what cards are in hand.

Whether a good hand is all-in or fold, many times depends on where the player sits,

Therefore, under this rule, the first action cannot observe the position of other players, which is naturally the most unfavorable position, which is called the 'muzzle'.

"Fold."

At the point of the gun, with such small cards as 3 and 5, Iber folded very smartly without any hesitation.

But his expression did not reveal any information. After Janandegu looked at his hole cards, he glanced at the casino staff and Fangran in front of him.
Then he smiled and took out a handful of chips from the hill in front of him, and pushed them in front of him.

"Raise."

Without the casualness of the bosses, maintaining a poker face at work, the member sent by the casino only took out chips that were one and a half times the small blind.

"Call."

Finally it was Fangran's turn,
Poker, the green table, the hill-like chips, the empty casino hall, and the English words of other people in the ear, all these things hit the mind like a wave,

Although it was the big blind who acted last, but he had no clue when he knew a little bit about it.

"Now it's your turn to act, young master. You have three choices - call, raise, or fold. Please make a decision based on your own judgment of the cards, opponents, and situation,"

"And you who have already placed the big blind in this round, if you don't raise the bet, you only need to call and double the same chips,"

"If you raise, the raise amount is the difference between the big blind and the No.1 player's raise, which is also double the same chip."

Like a drowning person lost in the waves of the sea, listening to Adeline's cold voice like a rope, Fangran looked at his own hole cards that he didn't know good or bad,
The words that he wanted to discard stuck in his throat, and he struggled for a second with a slight frown. With some difficulty, he picked up the chip and said the choice:

"and."

As Adeline relayed the decision truthfully, the first round ended,
The second round begins,
What the bunny girl sent to the center of the table were three face-up community cards. In Texas Hold'em, which uses the combination of hole cards and community cards to create a powerful combination and then compete with the rules of the game,
This highly variable round is also called a FLOP (flop).

Iber, who had withdrawn from the round, was interested in observing the two opponents other than his old acquaintance, and after seeing the public cards,
As the first casino employee to act from this round, he seemed to have made a judgment based on his hole cards and the community cards,
"Check."

"From this round onwards, in addition to the previous three choices, if you feel that your cards have the hope of winning, young master, it is not enough to take the risk of more chips,"

"You can also choose to check and pass the action to the next player."

Standing beside Fangran, Adeline explained with a calm expression, and relayed his slight words that seemed to be quite laborious in the next second.

"Pass"

Gyanandergu, who raised in the previous round, did not raise again to raise the follow-up chips to expand the chip pot, but just bet on the chips normally.

Then in the third round, another community card is dealt to the center of the table,
The hand that may make someone hear what they want constitutes the best hand, adding further variability to the round known as the trun.

"Pass."

"This round is the same as the previous round. You still face those four choices, young master, and the next round will be the same."

And he didn't pay attention to the casino employee at all, as if he could only hear Adeline's voice, Fangran's chest heaved slightly.

"Pass"

Seeing that neither of them had bet, Gyanandergu smiled and shrugged and checked as well.

Then in the fourth round, the fifth community card is dealt,

The last card called River (river card), made a pair in the community cards,
"Bet."

Listening to the casino employee's choice, without Adeline's voice, Fangran looked at all five community cards in the center of the gaming table,

Breathing slowly, he used his only understanding of Texas Hold'em in film and television works to make a judgment.

"Pass"

As the banker who took the last action, after observing the two of them and responding strangely to Fang Ran, Janandegu also made a decision aloud.

Then all betting rounds are over and the fifth round of showdown begins,
"The cards from high to low are Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Two Pair, One Pair, High Card,"

"Master, if you can't remember, please ask me anytime."

The showdown stage was carried out in Adeline's soft and calm explanation. All the hole cards were revealed, and three cards were selected from the public cards to combine.
The final winner turned out to be Gyanandergu, whose hole card was a pair of kings.

"It looks really lucky."

Repeating his initial self-ridicule, Janandeg watched with a smile, and a waiter pushed all the chips in this game in front of him,
A total of 50 US dollars in chips from the casino employee and Fangran.

And watching the waiter take away the chips in front of him, under the bright lights overlooking the night of Las Vegas,

I just lost more than 100 million
Far more illusory than when he 'won' the money just now with his ability, Fangran was just circling this idea a little unreally at the moment,
Probably an ordinary family has to save money for 30 to [-] years, and a majority is linked to a house, so that many loves will eventually lose to the actual amount of money.

Just now he lost normally, but it only took a few minutes
A very uncomfortable feeling spreads...
But under the pressure, Fangran kept reminding himself of the purpose of coming here and the source of the money.

Then in the second round, he lost [-] chips in this round, and the same in the third round, [-],
Then the fourth round,

This time he lost a full 40 chips.

Poker, lighting, gaming tables, bunny girl, green tweed, hill-like chips, empty casino hall, and other people's English words in my ears!

Adeline, who finished talking about the rules, has stopped making a sound. Being in the midst of these, I feel lost in the tide of the storm.
He obviously only lost 80 yuan, which is nothing compared to the huge sum of 500 million yuan in front of him, but looking at the pile of chips in front of him, he thought about losing all of them,
An uncomfortable feeling like dizziness expanded, making Fangran suddenly feel that his breathing was blocked.
　I forgot to mention, the extra marriage before, that was when I updated every time, I used to push the next thing to be written to the bottom with a new line, but that day I endured my shoulders and wrote until midnight, I was really tired forgot to delete
