Endless Rebirth

"Yeah, man, poker tournament!" said Hoffman, raising a glass of champagne.

The two of them had already arrived at another seat, each ordered a drink and meal, and talked about the poker tournament.

"wsop, the World Series of Poker, unlimited poker, the final winner can get a reward of nearly ten million US dollars." Hoffman said: "The high bonus attracts thousands of Gamblers gather in Las Vegas."

"But, as far as I know, Hoffman, the poker competition seems to be held in spring and summer, but now it's autumn!" Li Shixun said with a smile.Of course he knew about the ********* contest, but he didn't know much about it.

America has always had a poker tournament, where winning is all about your brains.These are all tricks played by people outside the gambling world, and the gambling kings determined by the competition are all outsiders.If a real gambling master were to come to the table, the other party would probably lose even his pants.

A real gambling master will steal cards and exchange cards. When you are worried that your cards are not good or your luck is bad, he has already got the card he wants.These are two completely different worlds, so even though poker tournaments in the United States are becoming more and more popular, people who are really involved in the gambling industry are dismissive of it.The so-called kings of gambling, they don't take it seriously.

Hoffman didn't know what Li Shixun was thinking at this time. He smiled and said: "Mike, it seems that you still know something about poker competitions. It seems that I guessed right. You should be here to participate in the competition. You should thank me. , forget the unhappiness just now, because you will be lucky to meet me."

"Okay. Hoffman, I admit that I am a little interested in this gambling game, but if you are interested in this, I will not accompany you!" Li Shixun put down the cup in his hand.said.

"Okay, okay, listen to me, okay!" Hoffman continued: "According to convention, spring and summer start, but this year is very different."

"wsop supports online poker. This time is of course no exception. However, in order to prevent some computer experts from cheating, this year's competition has made the greatest preparations. A large number of equipment and personnel have been replaced. For this reason, it has to be postponed. "

"Although it has been postponed, it has won praise from many people. And the number of contestants participating this year has reached 7000 at this time alone. Did you know? Last year, there were only a little more than 6000, and as time goes by, the number of participating There will be more people.”

"It seems that this gambling match is worth looking forward to!" Li Shixun said thoughtfully.

"Of course, who can refuse a high bonus? The most important thing is that the contestants are getting younger now. I really miss the situation ten years ago, haha..." Hoffman took a sip and said: "You Do you know last year's gambling king, the youngest gambling king Card? He will also participate this year. Obviously, 850 million US dollars is not enough to satisfy this young man's appetite. However, can he succeed again this time? It depends on his luck."

The card that Hoffman talks about is the poker gambling king who was determined in November last year.His name is Joe Card. He is only 21 years old, one year younger than the 08-year-old gambling king in 22. This caused a great sensation at the time, and Card has become the idol of many young people.

"Hoffman, are there any conditions for participating in this gambling competition?" Li Shixun asked.

"The condition is... wait, you didn't know?" Hoffman exclaimed mid-sentence.

"Why should I know?" Li Shixun spread his hands and said.

"But I thought you came here specially to participate in the competition. Damn it, I misunderstood!" Hoffman cursed fiercely, and then said excitedly: "So you haven't signed up for the competition yet?"

"Of course, I came to Las Vegas this time just because I was invited by a friend to have fun. Now that I have heard such interesting things, of course I want to participate." Li Shixun asked: "Tell me about the registration process. If there are any Time, I think I’ll participate.”

"Of course there is time, and there is plenty of time." Hoffman said excitedly for some reason: "The world poker competition ranges from limited and no-limit Texas Hold'em (******** texashold\'em) to seven-card poker (seven-cardstud), Omaha high-low poker (omaha high-low) and various other popular poker games, and the registration fees for different forms of competitions range from US$1500 to US$10000. wait."

"The prize is the highest, and the most exciting thing is of course the championship battle, which is to play unlimited **********. This project has high prize money, and naturally the cost of participating is also high. Players need to spend [-] US dollars to purchase the right to participate. . Believe me, Mike, with your strength, you will definitely shine."

"Why are you so confident in me? Hoffman, you haven't even seen my poker skills."

"But I have seen your card shuffling. It's a very good skill. Although it has no place in the game, but with such skills, your card skills will definitely be good." Hoff Mandao.

"Okay, I didn't expect you to be so good at talking. Last question, Hoffman, how long will the game take? I don't have time to stay here longer." Li Shixun asked.

"It doesn't take long, Mike, just a month, one month is enough!"

"Are you kidding me, Hoffman?" Li Shixun said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "One month is too long, I don't have time at all, it seems I can only express my regrets."

"No, no, no, Mike, listen to me, one month is really not long. Think about it, you can earn more than 800 million US dollars in one month..." Hoffman tried to persuade Li Shixun.

"Come on, Hoffman, it's true that I have so much money, but can I definitely win the championship?" Li Shixun squinted at him and said, "Why do you want me to participate so much? Hoffman, you have to give me a Reason, otherwise we can’t even be friends.”

"Don't be so sensitive, my friend." Hoffman looked at him with a wry smile and said, "Actually, I just want to be your introducer, so that I can get the qualification to participate in peripheral gambling."

"Oh? In such a formal gambling competition, there is actually a peripheral gambling competition?" Li Shixun understood immediately, looked at him with a smile and said: "If I participate in the competition, you will benefit a lot, right?"

Now that everything was said out loud, Hoffman stopped hiding it and nodded: "Yes, the outside bets are on the champion and the runner-up, as well as various names. Among them, the champion has the highest bet. But the outside is not that easy. To obtain qualifications, one must go through a recommender.”

"The referrer prepares all the information of the players participating in the poker game, and then sends it to external personnel for disclosure. Each referrer has three high-roller quotas, which means that the referrer can help three high-rollers place bets, regardless of whether they are betting or not. Yes, those who refer you will get a hefty commission."

"It's interesting!" Hearing this, Li Shixun smiled meaningfully. (To be continued.)
