If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Pre-flop phase.

The dealer dealt the cards to the hands of the six players one by one, (the small blind should be Miss Ge, which has been corrected at the end of the previous chapter) Doyle Brown, who was under the gun, scratched his thumb and glanced at his two hole cards. , tap the table lightly with your finger to select check.

The following players, including Shao Nanyin, who had performed exceptionally well in the previous two rounds, also all chose to check afterward, and went around in a circle to return to Lin Nian, who was the last to speak.

He glanced at other people's eyes, and then tapped the table with his index finger: "Check."

There was no trouble, which made the players at the table and the guests in the back a little regretful. It seems that the wonderful situation in the first two rounds was an accident, and in the third round, they began to be conservative.

In the first round, all six players checked their cards, and I didn’t know that someone was fishing for big fish with a long line. In short, they entered the flop stage.

Three communal cards are turned out, the queen of clubs, the 10 of spades, the rainbow side of the 8 of diamonds, and the probability of a flush is reduced.

Doyle Brown thumbed through his cards again, the two hole cards of the Queen of Hearts and the 10 of Clubs. On this card, he had already hit two pairs (Two Pairs), that is, two cards of the same rank, plus two other cards. cards of the same rank.

He pointed his finger at the chips, and then chose a normal amount of bet, and he also gently pushed out a blue chip: "One hundred thousand."

The ranked Shao Nanyin did not look at her own cards, nor did she look at the public cards on the table. She was looking at Lin Nian, and others at the table noticed that she was looking at Lin Nian, but no one commented on this, because Shao Nanyin University may be analyzing his opponent through expressions, which is understandable.

"Call." Shao Nanyin threw out a blue chip and followed, rubbing his fingers lightly on his two hole cards.

"Call." Russian Hanzhukovsky glanced at his hole cards, which were a pair of pocket pairs, 8 of clubs and 8 of hearts.

This has already won three of a kind in combination with the public cards on the table, and there is even a chance to wait for the last two public cards to be turned over, and Bo will only lose a full house with a straight flush and four of a kind, that is, a full house (three cards of the same value, plus A pair of cards with other points, which is the famous stalk in "The Gambler": Can a flush be beaten by a full house?).

There's no reason not to call. In fact, Zhukovsky can still make a tentative raise, but they didn't do it, probably because they were worried about scaring others away. Other players may just run away.

Under normal circumstances, he would raise, but based on his observation of the playing habits of other players at this table in the first two rounds, he decided to wait until the turn stage to slowly play suits. Absolutely, if the turn does come full house, he can let go and bet.

Alicia in the back position also chose Call after looking at her hole cards, but when it came to Miss Ge, she folded and ran away.

"Are the cards so good?" Miss Ge threw the cards into the dealer's hands and glanced at the caller, "It seems that this game is quite interesting."

After going to Lin Nian's side to talk, Lin Nian glanced at Zhukovsky.

That is to say, the Russian, who was still observing other people's expressions at this moment, suddenly felt a chill all over his body. The strong body wrapped in the suit gave a cold war, and the movement was so big that the chair under him shook slightly. Like a brown bear sneezing.

Zhukovsky suddenly raised his head and looked around, an inexplicable panic in his heart. The last time he felt this way was when Russia's own adversary tried to kill him with a car bomb. At the moment when his car turned into a fireball not far away, the sense of fear made the blood vessels inch by inch, making people feel cold all over even if they were wrapped in a warm coat.

"Raise, 20." At this moment, Zhukovsky heard the new young man on the opposite side say.

When someone raises at the table, the others must either call to the raised amount or continue to reraise, or they have to fold to give up the game.

The two blue chips were thrown out, and the expressions of the others didn't change much. After all, after seeing Shao Nanyin's crazy All in before, now looking at this simple raise, he won't have a big reaction.

"The new luck seems to be pretty good? Or are you really in a hurry to drain all of our chips and eliminate all of us?" Doyle Brown touched his trump card and said non-nutritious trash talk casually, wanting to see Lin Nian's face, But it's a pity that Lin Nian's expression was so cold from beginning to end, with a poker face that couldn't see anything.

Tianshun?It is unlikely that Doyle Brown is inclined to be bluffing. Judging from Lin Nian's words and deeds before going to the table, it is very likely that everything is a show, in order to bluff at this time.

His hole card is that he has already won two pair, and there is no reason to be intimidated by Lin Nian's raise. This is a classic Texas game, not a short card Texas game (the Texas Hold'em variant game removes the four points of 2, 3, 4, and 5.) 16 cards, only 36 cards are left for the game, more chance of being paired, more chance of being straight, and less chance of flush), shouldn’t the chance of a straight be low?

"Call." Doyle Brown chose to call.

"Call." Shao Nanyin called in seconds without hesitation.

However, other people can't analyze her cards from this aspect. First, her table is very deep, and the chips thrown out now can be used as tuition fees to understand the opponent's habits. Second, this woman does not seem to regard money as money. The lunatic of , raising and calling is completely illogical.

"Call." Zhukovsky sorted out his emotions and returned to the poker game. He thought for half a minute in sheep's clothing, and then called.

He is happy to see this scene, the dominant position in the rush to raise is in someone else's hand, and he is better hidden in the call to use his big hand to eat all the pot at the time.

Miss Alicia also thought about it for a while, and then called.

In the rapid rise of the pot, the dealer collected all the chips, turned over the fourth public card, and entered the turn card stage.

Cards: Queen of Clubs, 10 of Spades, 8 of Diamonds, 7 of Diamonds.

The guests around the gaming table began to talk, because the communal card was too dangerous, the connection was too strong, and the probability of a straight increased rapidly.

At the beginning of the second round, Miss Ge of the small blind spoke, but since Miss Ge folded, Lin Nian, who was in the big blind, spoke.

"50." Lin Nian continued to raise his bet and threw out a crimson chip.In just one or two strokes, he has almost lost half of his chips.

Doyle Brown finally fell silent at this time, and there was no more trash in his mouth. In fact, judging from the calling situation in the previous round, he had already begun to consider whether the two pairs in his hand were worth him to continue to call.

Everyone kept up with Lin Nian's raise and called so aggressively. Maybe someone really had a straight in his hand. Even if Lin Nian was bluffing, as long as someone really had a straight or a set, he would lose everything.

Forget it, the muzzle position of this gun is indeed a little bit worse. This game can be stopped in time for a small loss. It is not easy for him to follow up until now.

"Fold." Doyle Brown folded his hand.

When he arrived at Shao Nanyin's side to speak, as expected, he said, "Call."

Next, it was Zhukovsky, who was holding the three bars in his hand, his face expressionless, but the face that he couldn't hide in his heart was that his brows were about to come out of the water.

He looked at Lin Nian and then at Shao Nanyin. The performance of the two was as if they were telling others that they were in good order, and the aura of Lao Tzu's greatest and second best was almost unstoppable.

To follow or not to follow?
After thinking about it, Zhukovsky decided to call. No one pushed All in on this kind of card. He almost called to the end. Even if he lost, he had to call. made a raise.

Zhukovsky threw a solid white chip, the highest value chip currently at the table.

"Rise, 100 million." The croupier said.

Miss Alicia, who had the right to speak, thought for a while, then shook her head and chose to fold. At the same time, she also showed her card when she folded. It was pocket A, a heart. Ace, an Ace of Spades.

It is very rare for pocket Aces to fold. After all, double Aces is already the biggest hole card in Texas Hold'em, but now she is forced to fold by this dangerous public card and high raise situation. She has to say that she is very willing .

When it was time for Lin Nian to speak again, he threw his chips to catch up with Zhukovsky's raise, and Shao Nanyin also called in seconds.

The game continued to enter the final river card stage, and the last card turned out was actually an ace of clubs.

Cards: Queen of Clubs, 10 of Spades, 8 of Diamonds, 7 of Diamonds, Ace of Clubs.

"Ah." Alicia smiled bitterly, and the guests behind her also made a lot of heated discussions.

If she hadn't folded, she'd be a set of aces now, but unfortunately the ace came too late.

"Three players, Mr. Lin Nian, it's your turn." The dealer gestured for Lin Nian to speak.

At this time, there were not many chips on Lin Nian's stage, and he didn't talk nonsense. He didn't say anything, just put out all the chips.

After putting out the chips, he looked at Shao Nanyin, lowered his eyes, and tapped the table with his fingers lightly.

"All in, 80." The croupier said.

Zhukovsky didn't react, because Lin Nian was never a problem. The boy's table was only 200 million. Even if he really let the other party get a straight, he would lose 200 million at most if he lost a three-of-a-kind game. There are about 3000 million chips in it, which is completely affordable.

But the question is Shao Nanyin, what kind of card is this evil Chinese woman holding?She called from the beginning without any hesitation at all. Was she bluffing with a lot of chips, or did she really get a big hand?Will she keep calling next?
Zhukovsky felt that the opponent had no reason not to call. Before Shao Nanyin made a bet, he counted 80 chips on the table and was ready to call, but what Shao Nanyin said next made his hands trembling with the chips for a moment.

"Rise, 900 million." Shao Nanyin said, and then she turned to the croupier and said something familiar to everyone, "Can I keep my castle before the cards are dealt?"

"Yes, of course you can." The old croupier used honorifics to this girl as he should, because he had never seen such a crazy woman for so many years as a croupier.

"All in, 900 million." The croupier said.Just like reading the emperor's imperial decree, those few short words piled up terrifying wealth like a golden torrent.

"You are provoking me." Zhukovsky turned his head suddenly, looked at Shao Nanyin beside him and said with a blank expression.

He used declarative sentences, because what he said was indeed an indisputable fact.

Normally, Lin Nian's all-in is only 80, and Shao Nanyin can call if he loses 80, and then Zhukovsky continues to call 80.

But now Shao Nanyin inexplicably made a one-hand raise, and the chip of this raise is full of malice if it loses—only the malice against her subordinate Zhukovsky, because the 900 million yuan happens to be the Russian gas tycoon All the chips on the table now.

"You don't have to." Shao Nanyin tilted her head and smiled at the Russian tycoon. "Just like Mr. Doyle Brown said, I like to give face to newcomers."

"Does this have anything to do with you provoking me?" Zhukovsky didn't understand the meaning of Shao Nanyin's words, and no one on the stage could understand, only Lin Nian silently waited for the opening of the cards.

"It's okay, just fold if you don't follow, don't waste time." Shao Nanyin said.

After speaking, she paused and spit out another word in Russian.As soon as the word came out, a blue vein appeared on Zhukovsky's forehead.

There were not many people who could understand Russian at the scene, but Lin Nian happened to be one of them. He tapped on the table with his fingers indifferently and did not see Zhukovsky's reaction, but he must have been coldly scolded by a girl as "a coward." ', even a Russian man can't be good-natured.

The dealer immediately warned Shao Nanyin. As a senior dealer, this old British gentleman knows at least four common languages, and Russian happens to be one of them.He reminded Shao Nanyin that this was the first time he had warned her about inappropriate speech. If there was a second time, he would not have warned her and would have directly asked the security personnel to take her away from the card table to forcibly take away her qualifications to participate in the game.

Shao Nanyin didn't say anything about this, but just looked at Zhukovsky with a livid expression beside him with a smile. The Russian tycoon who had always been prudent all along only had a few short conversations, but now his emotions have inexplicably reached the threshold!It was as if Shao Nanyin's remarks hit his emotional burst.

Stimulate the law?Still bluffing with trash talk?

Almost everyone stared at Shao Nanyin's expression, trying to analyze what she was thinking, and at the same time looking forward to Zhukovsky's next move.

Zhukovsky raised his hand, his arms span was very long, and his arm circumference was surprisingly thick. When he raised his hand, the suit on his shoulders was pulled and stretched out of the daunting lines inside, and the top of the gaming table was on the top of the table. The lights were slightly blocked, and the shadows covered Shao Nanyin's face, but she remained calm, playing with the chips at her fingertips, not at all worried about what bad things would happen next.

The old dealer beside Shao Nanyin almost immediately prepared to rely on the past to stop the atrocities that might happen next, but Zhukovsky quickly dropped his hand.

The rounded arm didn't hit the girl beside him. In the wind, everyone heard the sound of chips collapsing and colliding. It was 900 million worth of chips that were sucked into the pot in one breath. .

"Call." Zhukovsky swept away all his chips with a wave of his hand and scattered the entire gaming table. He stared at Shao Nanyin and said with a cold face, "If you want to provoke me, then I congratulate you for doing it, I Depends on your cards."

Shao Nanyin leaned his chin and tilted his head to look at her, reflecting that the Russian's eyes had a beautiful golden glow under the refraction of the light.

The croupier stopped in his tracks, looked at the scattered chips on the table, stood back to his original position after a moment of silence, collected all the chips, and said: "Mr. Zhukovsky, All in, 900 million chips, please Open your cards, everyone."

Zhukovsky uncovered his cards, pocket eights.

The croupier takes the two hole cards in front of him and rolls out five cards with the highest combination: 8 of diamonds, 8 of clubs, 8 of hearts, ace of clubs, queen of clubs.

"Three of a kind."

In the low voice of the onlookers, Zhukovsky looked at Shao Nanyin expressionlessly: "Let's open the card."

Shao Nanyin didn't move, just raised his head to the bad-tempered Russian tycoon and motioned him to look across the table.

Zhukovsky turned his head and looked over, then he was stunned.

In front of Lin Nian, two hole cards were turned over.

J of spades, 9 of clubs.

The dealer puts the two hole cards in front of him and recombines the largest order: Queen of Clubs, J of Spades, 10 of Spades, 9 of Clubs, 8 of Diamonds
"Straight."

A straight flush is the largest in Texas Hold'em, followed by four of a kind, a full house, a flush, a straight, and then three of a kind.

But so what?Zhukovsky was stunned for a moment, but he immediately realized that Lin Nian was only 80 all-in, and his total chips in the pot were only 200 million. Even if Lin Nian won in this situation, he would However, they can only win 200 million from Shao Nanyin and Zhukovsky each. The rule is how much you bet and how much you win.

Zhukovsky was relieved, and when he was about to say something in a cold tone, he heard the croupier say again, "Straight."

Why did the dealer report the cards twice?
Zhukovsky turned his head back, and saw a scene that made him stunned.

He saw Shao Nanyin slowly revealing his cards: Jack of Hearts, 9 of Hearts.

It is exactly the same size as Lin Nian's card. Naturally, the size of the board they finally combined is exactly the same.

"Straight is tied and Three of a kind is out," the dealer said.

"His chips aren't enough to win you, but I have enough." Shao Nanyin said quietly, her eyes swept over the players on the table with dazed expressions, "You can only blame your bad luck, some people are already impatient to think Speeding up the game, I can only accompany you, there will always be someone who will suffer, but this person must not be me."
