Forces of Temptation

After hugging Buddha's feet for a while before the battle, there was a chance to back him up. Even the brothers of the Dai family who had suffered a lot under Jiang Fang's hands felt that they could do it.

Jiang Fang never mentioned his request "not to use the shuffling machine".

Because he knew that if he said that, the other party would never agree.

He took the initiative to walk from his own camp to Qu Jinsha, who was isolated by the other four, and put his arms on the corner of the table: "Why don't you let Boss Qu go."

As long as Jiang Fang wanted to, anyone could be treated like a sincere friend by him.

However, it was just a gesture in vain.

Qu Jinsha raised his eyebrows to look at him, stared at him for a long time, shrugged his shoulders, and roughly understood his purpose of flirting: "I have lost you once in poker before, so just think I'm afraid."

Jiang Fang smiled and said, "It's just a chance to win the round."

Qu Jinsha waved his fat hand: "Not yet."

Jiang Fang bewitched him: "We will use a machine this time."

Qu Jinsha smiled wryly: "Did we not use it last time? Are you afraid of machines?"

Jiang Fang said seriously, "I'm afraid, I'm very afraid."

Even though Qu Jinsha had already guessed his seven-point purpose, he still admired his proper affectation: "You boy."

This conversation fell intermittently into the ears of four high-dimensional people not far away.

No matter what Wen Jiasheng and Jiang Zhengping thought, when Jiang Fang said that, the Dai brothers immediately started to beat the drums.

They believed what Jiang Fang said.

In the previous roulette, betting size, and coin pushing machines, "Cubic Ark" all beat them on the machines they were originally sure to win.

These three painful experiences made them have to be vigilant.

The machine is a monster, once it loses its grip on the rein, it will devour its flesh and blood regardless of friend or foe.

So, they sat at an ordinary gambling table.

Wen Jiasheng took the initiative to propose: "In each game, the dealer shuffles the cards and takes turns sitting on the dealer."

Shuffle the cards in turn, and the cards are all on the bright side, so you don't have to worry about someone tampering.

They also don't intend to switch cards.

The time limit of half an hour is not long, just play a deck of cards to the end.

For blackjack, if you want to successfully record cards, the most important thing is not to change cards.

On this point, Jiang Fang and the three of them coincided with each other.

Jiang Fang glanced at the fully automatic card shuffling table not far away, with a bit of regret in his eyes: "...that's fine."

The No.1 banker decides by throwing dice.

This time, Jiang Fang did not hide his ability to roll dice.

Of course, he didn't have any need to hide.

Nan Zhou stood behind Jiang Fang to observe the situation.

He pinched the three dice with his fingertips and arranged them in a row, with an inch of force like running water.

Then he rolled casually, and three "6" points all went up, successfully walking him to the dealer position in the first game.

Since then, the blackjack game has officially begun.

Jiang Fang took out a completely new deck of playing cards from the box, flicked his index finger inertially, wiped it on the table with one finger, and picked up a red joker with his tail finger lightly and nimbly.

The thin card seemed to have wings invisibly, and it flew vertically upwards, and was caught by Nan Zhou's fingertips.

The other Black Joker was also made in the same way, and it fell into Nan Zhou's hands.

Jiang Fang turned around and blinked, and there was a sense of coquettishness between Yunxiu's eyebrows: "Help us take care of it."

Inappropriately, an adjective of human society jumped out of Yuan Mingqing's mind, which can accurately summarize Jiang Fang's behavior:

The peacock spreads its tail.

However, in the next second, the 52 cards were like a Qiluo fan, and they were fanned open in Jiang Fang's palm. It was a perfect and orderly fan shape, very much like the winding tail of a peacock.

He turned the card face to the three people facing him: "No problem, check, it's a new card."

The three of them were subconsciously contemptuous of his actions, because it was too much like a show off.

Only Jiang Zhengping, who was gradually getting on the road, stood by and watched, his eyes were as bright as a falcon preparing to hunt.

Jiang Fang's behavior must have been planned.

However, this just fell into Jiang Zhengping's trap.

He hasn't forgotten the original rules.

If you catch a gambler out, the rule is 1 for 25.

If the bet in one game can be raised to 1, Jiang Fang will need to pay them back 25 points.

This is the lore that Jiang Zhengping is after.

Jiang Fang turned the 52 cards to himself, and began to shuffle the cards smoothly and openly.

Jiang Zhengping's eyes blurred, and Jiang Fang used the first Ace of Hearts to flick, and the 52 cards immediately resembled the densely arranged strings inside a piano, with a little rhythm of playing, hooked into a beautiful arch bridge shape .

The Ace of Hearts changed from the head to the tail, and Jiang Fang flicked the tail cards with a flick of his hand. With a little provocation, he held a whole deck of poker in one palm.

The card body flickered, and Jiang Zhengping's eyes didn't even have time to focus, and the cards passed through each other one by one. He didn't even have time to blink, and he lost the positioning of all the cards.

...he still overestimated himself.

The head of one card seems to be ouroboros clutching the tail of another card, seamless and airtight.

After shuffling the cards like a big wave washing the sand, and laying them flat on the table for three times, Jiang Fang withdrew his hand and tapped twice on the table to show that the cards were shuffled.

Immediately, he took the top two cards for himself, and placed them in front of him, one bright and one dark.

For blackjack in a 4-player game, the licensing rules are as follows:

At the beginning of each game, after the dealer shuffles the cards, he must deal 2 cards to himself, one face up and one face down, which can be regarded as a combination of open cards + hidden cards.

Then, the dealer has to deal two cards to each of the three players, and the face of both cards must be up, which is regarded as a clear card.

And Jiang Fang's revealing card surprised everyone present.

is A.

In the blackjack rules, the points of J, Q, and K are uniformly counted as 21, and 10 to 2 are counted according to the numbers on the board.

A is the most special, it can be counted as 1 point or 11 points.

The sum of the numbers on the drawn cards is the key to winning in blackjack.

Regardless of whether it is the banker or the player, the numbers of the cards drawn are summed up, and the closer to blackjack, the more likely to win.

But once it exceeds 21 points, it will be considered a "bust" and lose.

The play of the banker and the player is not the same.

For the 3 players, they need to bet according to the numbers on the cards after they get 2 face cards, and choose whether they want to follow the cards. .

Until they think their cards are big enough, such as 19 or 20, in order to avoid busting, the player can choose to stop following the cards.

But if it exceeds 21 points, it will be lost directly.

As for the dealer, Jiang Fang needs to reveal the hidden cards in his hand after the three players on the opposite side stop asking for cards, and continue to ask for cards one by one.

If the sum of the total points in his hand is less than or equal to 16 points, such as 13 or 15 points, he must continue to take cards from the deck.

If the added points are greater than 16 points, he must stop and cannot take any more.

Finally, the banker and the player compare the maximum value of the cards in their hands.

1 versus 3, if the highest value among the 3 is less than the card in Jiang Fang's hand, Jiang Fang wins; if it is greater, the player wins; if it is tied, it is a draw.

The basic odds of each game are 1 to 1.

However, there is a general hidden play here.

Because A can be regarded as 1 or 11, and when added to 10, it can be directly counted as blackjack.

If the player draws "Black Jack" at the beginning, they can win directly.

The so-called "blackjack" means that you just draw an ace and a 10 at the beginning, making up a blackjack.

And when the first round of the banker's open card is A, the player must first bet "buy insurance", guess whether the hidden card in the banker's hand is 10, and whether they can make up a "black jack".

If the player guesses correctly, the player wins the round.

Players lose their deposit if they guess wrong.

When Jiang Fang saw A at the beginning of the game, whether it was Jiang Zhengping, who was watching the battle, or the three players on the opposite side, his first reaction was that he was out of luck.

Therefore, when Jiang Fang was about to hand out cards to the other three players, Wen Jiasheng, who had exchanged glances in private, raised his hand and pressed his wrist.

He held onto Jiang Fang's cuff vainly, and deliberately exerted force to press it down, but he couldn't touch the imaginary card.

Wen Jiasheng couldn't help frowning.

Isn't it replaced with hidden cards?

He withdrew his strength calmly and said, "We take the cards ourselves."

Jiang Fang also moved his wrist with a smile: "Okay."

Because they didn't trust Jiang Fang at all, the three players each played their hands and drew two cards.

Soon, two cards were placed in front of them.

But their faces were even more ugly.

Dai Xuelin was the first to draw cards in order, with 6 of spades and 9 of spades in front of him.

Dai Xuebin is second, with 5 and 10 in front of him.

In front of Wen Jiasheng are clubs 7 and 8.

All the cards in each person's hand are not only of the same suit, but also add up to 15. As long as they draw a slightly larger card, there is a risk of blowing more than 21 points and losing.

They were even more suspicious that Jiang Fang was cheating.

But Jiang Fang put all his actions on the bright side, shuffling the cards in an open and honest manner.

Even if he was able to make money, how could he become what he is now according to his completely messed up washing method?

Could it be that he can really play poker to the point where he can dictate it?

However, after reviewing the game of cards, Jiang Fang smiled and said sarcastic words: "These people really have a good understanding, even the cards drawn are 15."

As he spoke, he leaned sideways again, gently playing with the contours of the ear bones.

There is a hole in his earlobe and ear bone, which is the product of his youth and frivolity.

He tapped the corner of his hidden card with his fingertips: "Buy insurance? Guess what's under my card?"

He lowered his voice: "...will it be 'Black Jack'.

The three looked at each other and secretly exchanged information.

They agreed on some simple secret signs long before the game.

As a military advisor, Jiang Zhengping looked at the overall situation with a clear mind.

If Jiang Fang's ability to control cards is really as good as controlling dice, then he can get 10 if he wants 10. The possibility of this card forming a "Black Jack" cannot be underestimated.

But if they buy insurance, there will be two results.

First, if the player guesses correctly and the hidden card is indeed 10, Jiang Fang will lose the game and pay 1 to 2 bets.

Second, if the player guesses wrong, the hidden card is not 10, the player loses a little insurance money, and the game continues.

Jiang Zhengping thought, if he had Jiang Fang's skills, he would be foolish to draw 10 from the hidden card.

The right to choose is in their hands, and Jiang Fang has no way of predicting whether they will buy insurance or not.

Then only by not choosing 10 can he be completely invincible.

He deliberately made all the cards in the hands of the players into 15, and he used to show off in every possible way before, just to fully demonstrate his card skills and induce everyone to think that the value of the hidden cards in his hand is 10.

But as long as you think about it, you can know that only the second option is the most appropriate for him.

Wen Jiasheng thought so too.

He tapped the table lightly with his little finger.

This is the meaning of "nothing, continue".

"We don't buy insurance. Go ahead," he said.

After all, the three of them drew cards silently without looking at Jiang Fang's face.

Because their scores are all stuck at the unembarrassing position of 15, they can only continue to ask for cards and cannot stop there.

After the three bet 1000, each draws a card.

This time they behaved well and did not draw in order.

Dai Xuelin was unlucky, he drew a K, and the value of the K was counted as 10, so he busted out on the spot.

Dai Xuebin drew a 3 and came to 18 o'clock.

Wen Jiasheng drew a 5 from the end of the card.

After seeing the value clearly, his heart jumped wildly.

15+5, 20 points, only a little bit worse than 21 points!

He immediately said, no more cards.

Dai Xuebin then decided not to follow the cards.

There was also a hint of surprise in Jiang Fang's expression, and he put his hand on his hidden card, ready to turn it over.

Wen Jiasheng crossed the table and pressed the other corner of the hidden card, stopping his movement.

He hid his knife in his smile: "Why don't you ask me whether to raise or not?"

"...Okay." Jiang Fang paused, "Will Mr. Wen raise or not?"

"I'll add it." Wen Jiasheng said calmly, "I'll add it to 5000 points."

This is also what they agreed in advance.

This is Jiang Zhengping's strategy. In order to be as safe as possible, even if he increases the stake, the number of people can't exceed 2 at most, and the chips can't increase to more than 5000.

"5000." Jiang Fang raised his hand suddenly, grabbed Wen Jiasheng's finger, and said with a half-smile, "It's a little less."

These words raised Wen Jiasheng's goosebumps.

But before he could analyze Jiang Fang's meaning, Jiang Fang used Wen Jiasheng's hand to flip away his upside-down hidden card.

10 of Hearts.

"BlackJack." Jiang Fang picked up the card with his index finger and middle finger, and greeted them affectionately, "Sorry, it's a fluke."

Jiang Zhengping was stunned.

...What did Jiang Fang think?How dare you put 10 in this position?

How can he predict that they don't buy insurance?

Seeing Jiang Fang throwing the cards into the pile with a smile on his face, Jiang Zhengping immediately regrouped in his heart.

Fortunately, not much loss.

Anyway, he won't be shuffling the cards in the next game.

He wanted to see how much Jiang Fang could do if the cards fell into their hands!
