Police order

Chapter 635 Texas
It is meaningless to fall into skepticism. Lu Ling and Yan Yu both understand, so there is no need to continue discussing this matter. The two went up to the second floor together and registered as members in the club here.

Membership is free to register. There will be a basic competition at 10000 o'clock this morning. Both of them have received 6 points for free. They find a table at random, and if there are enough [-] people, it will start automatically.

This is the basic field, mainly to qualify for the official field starting at 3:[-] pm.

Most of the members here are ordinary members like Lu Ling and Yan Yu who don't pay for money. Besides, there are also some VIP members. VIP members can automatically get tickets for the afternoon session every day, and there is no need to die in the morning session.

In the morning game, you need to win 5 points to get tickets for the afternoon game. If you win enough, you will qualify. If you lose, you can also buy points. Every 1 points is equivalent to 150 yuan.When you buy 1 points for the first time every day, you will get a [-]% discount.

In other words, you can directly krypton 750 yuan to get tickets for the afternoon show, but this is too expensive and not worth it.Generally speaking, after losing everything, buy 1 points, and then go to play.

There is no reward for the morning game, and if you lose, you lose. If you win 5, you will get tickets for the afternoon, and this point cannot be exchanged for cash.Here, no points are allowed to be taken off the table, either they will lose all, or they will automatically get tickets to leave the table if they reach [-]. Private transactions of points are absolutely not allowed, eliminating the possibility of gambling.

However, the food and drinks here are all free. As long as you are a registered free member, you can enjoy the buffet and drinks here even if you don’t spend a penny, even if you lose all.

Lu Ling and Yan Yu went to the table together, they were very unlucky, and soon less than half of the points were left, and the cards were always poor.

However, there were no professional poker players at this table. Everyone's level was really average, and it was easy for Lu Ling to see through whether there were any big names. Although Lu Ling kept losing, he didn't make any mistakes.Until one round, Lu Ling seized the opportunity to win a total of 1.5 from four players with a stud, and successfully drove off two opponents.

Soon, the two were a little dissatisfied, and spent money to "buy a living", and each had [-] points, and returned to this table. (Note, "buying a living", a game term, means spending money to revive.)
This is a bit like buying Happy Beans and playing Landlords.

In this game of Texas, there is a big difference between novices, veterans, and professionals. For example, if the hand is a pair of 9s, and the hole cards are 9, 10, J, and Q, and the opponent keeps raising, should I fold?
This is already three nines, which is very big, but the opponent can easily make a straight, and three of a kind is definitely not as big as a straight.The opponent has a 9% chance of having a straight, but you must see 90, 9, J, and Q to win, so how do you choose?Fold or call?

Generally speaking, novices will follow [-]% of the time, while veterans will analyze specific situations, such as scores, opponent habits, sunk costs, and so on.

One of the core points for novices is that it is difficult to fold big cards.In fact, only big names can lose the worst.

In the novice game, Lu Ling has an advantage. He can basically see through whether everyone is bluffing or not. In this way, he only needs to be steady and win big with small losses.

About an hour later, both Lu Ling and Yan Yu successfully got 5 points and tickets. During this period, the two "buying jobs" fell down again, gave up and continued buying jobs, and here came a new member .In an hour, there were more than 20 newcomers at this table.

As for why Yan Yu was able to advance, I have to talk about the tacit understanding between the two. Lu Ling didn't even need to look at Yan Yu, nor did he need to give Yan Yu any gestures, just a very, very slight movement, and Yan Yu could understand Lu Ling. The idea of ​​order.

If it wasn't for helping Yan Yu, Lu Ling would have left with 5 points long ago. It was precisely because he waited for Yan Yu to collect [-] points first that he only played for more than an hour.

"You're lucky," the croupier didn't notice any problem at all, and gave Yan Yu the ticket for the afternoon game, and 5 minutes later, Lu Ling also got the ticket.

The game in the afternoon is the daily official game. There are very generous prizes. No.1 will reward 6 yuan in cash, No.23, No.32, No. 4-6 will reward new fruit phones, No. 7-10 name reward iPad.In addition, the top ten will have a ticket for the ten-day match.

After the game, Lu Ling and the two left the poker table here and went to the dining place to wait for lunch.At this time, a few local buddies approached, wanting to find Lu Ling to buy these two tickets.

"Isn't this ticket registered?" Lu Ling was a little puzzled, "I remember it was bound with my membership number."

"It doesn't matter brother," the buddy said, "This membership number is just bound to the mobile phone number. You should be newcomers, right? If there is nothing else in the account, just change the mobile phone bound to the membership number to my mobile phone. It's like selling it to me."

"How much?" Lu Ling asked.

"300 yuan, you see, how appropriate, the two of you didn't spend a penny, you can earn 600 yuan after playing all morning, and you don't care about the food."

"How do you know I didn't spend a cent? Do you know how many times I bought it?" Lu Ling said.

"Ah? Brother, are you on the top? Then you buy points, forget it, you can continue to play in the afternoon, I advise you, don't get on the top this afternoon, that buying points is too expensive." Sincerely.

"Why? The prices are different?" Lu Ling asked.

"It's the same, it's 1 yuan for 150 points, but in the afternoon, it's the base point of 750 yuan, and you need to start at [-] yuan for one purchase. Hey, do you think it's expensive?"

"Then how many people can compete every afternoon?" Lu Ling asked.

"150 people."

"In this place, I think the ones who won 5 points are at most four or fifty, right?" Lu Ling was a little puzzled.

"There are a lot of VIP players, and if you buy live more than 5 times this afternoon, you will automatically get tomorrow's VIP status, and you can directly participate in the afternoon game for free."

"I think the prizes are so generous, is the 'buying' money this afternoon enough for the prizes?" Lu Ling asked.Prizes are only one aspect. In such a large place, the daily consumption is astronomical. There are more than 20 dealers in this hall alone. It is said that each person is paid 800 yuan per day.

"I don't know, I guess there are more people on the top." Seeing a new brother who was leaving the table, he bid farewell to Lu Ling and joined him.

Generally speaking, there are only three kinds of people who can stand out in the morning competition, one is professional players, one is krypton gold players, and the other is krypton life players.These brothers who want to buy tickets just want to buy tickets for Kryptonian players, and they can usually buy them at half price. Of course, there is a high probability that they will return in vain.

"There's a problem with this thing," Yan Yu said. "150 people participated in the afternoon game, and 100 people got VIP tickets. It's impossible for these players to be players who bought live five times yesterday. There must be other channels to get VIP tickets."

"In the afternoon, I guess we will know." Lu Lingdao, "When I went to the bathroom, I found that there is an upstairs, and there are people guarding it. I guess there is a special hall upstairs. The players there may have a permanent VIP qualification."

"Well, Li Jiantong should have such a qualification," Yan Yu nodded. "According to some clues we have so far, Li Jiantong's turnover in this place is very high, with a total consumption of more than 600 million, but the source of income is unknown."

"It must be separated. The consumption card and the cash back card are not on the same person." Lu Ling said, "Have you checked his ex-wife? Is it possible that the winning money went to his wife's account?"

"I checked, no."

"Then we have to check other people related to his ex-wife and expand the scope."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements for Yuyang." Yan Yu took out her phone and started to arrange.

"Also, spending 600 million yuan is too little." Lu Ling shook his head lightly.

"I feel so too."

The two sat and wandered around here, and when they were about to eat lunch, they really heard a lot of interesting things here, and also saw two players who came down from the third floor. They are all rich people.

Lunch was better than Lu Ling imagined. The buffet included not only casual dishes like ribs, but also regular seafood like prawns and scallops.All in all, this place is a good place to grab a meal.

During lunch, Lu Ling heard a few interesting things.

First, in this place, it is said that the outside players do not make money at all. The real money comes from the third floor. Some people say that the daily turnover on the third floor exceeds 100 million; There are more people than expected, and some directly buy points for thousands of dollars; third, if you want to enter the top ten in the afternoon, you need at least [-] million points.

Starting at 6:[-] p.m., the base score will be raised every half hour until [-]:[-] p.m.As the bottom score got higher, I couldn't hold on, and committed suicide slowly.

After three hours of competition, it is impossible to tell the winner, because there are always big brothers who keep buying jobs. Even at six o'clock in the afternoon, generally speaking, there are still at least 50 people on the field.At this time, it is obviously meaningless to directly rank according to the score. At this time, the rest of the people will pause, rest, and eat.

From this point on, no new players are allowed to join.In other words, if you have VIP tickets, you must enter before 6 o'clock.Moreover, the cost of buying a job is further increased, and it costs 10 points (1500R) to start.

After eating and resting, at 50:20 p.m., the daily finals officially begin. Because some people have bought jobs, the sunk cost becomes higher. The 11 people have to fight for two hours before they can be reduced to 8 people, and then continue to fight. At [-] o'clock in the evening, the top ten are selected, and then the number is less than [-], they can enter a table for the final.

By this time, it was already 12 o'clock in the evening, and those who could sit at this table were the bosses with more than 200 million points, and there were also tens of thousands of points who had survived.At this stage, you can still buy jobs, at least 50 points (7500R) at a time.In order to compete for the first place, there are indeed some people who will buy jobs in the final stage.

As for when there are only 3 people left at a table, there are also people who come up to buy jobs.At this time, buying jobs is actually not very meaningful, because the most people must have more than 500 million points, and the chances of winning with 50 points are too small.

In short, the more exciting it is, the more exciting it will be, and there will be more and more people watching.

Hearing this, Lu Ling actually roughly understood that everything outside is definitely different from the third floor. He wanted to check Li Jiantong's situation, but it was difficult here. If he wanted to go to the third floor, the The road is impassable.

To put it simply, even if Lu Ling wins the top ten in the afternoon and gets a ticket for the 10th match, and then shines in the 10th match and gets a ticket for the monthly match, it's useless.It was even meaningless for Lu Ling to get the tickets for the annual competition, as he still couldn't go to the third floor. The 3nd floor here is purely the club's playground.

After figuring this out, Lu Ling has no expectations for the game in the afternoon, but they still need this identity to stay here, and they need to know more people and get more clues.

After communicating with the team, the team's work was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Lu Ling decided to participate in the afternoon game.According to the regulations, the table allocation in the afternoon is random, and it is impossible for Lu Ling and Yan Yu to be allocated together, so once the two are combined, Lu Ling will participate alone. If Lu Ling hangs up, Yan Yu's mobile phone number will be used again Participation, anyway, you can join at any time before 6 o'clock.But Yan Yu left immediately, and went back to work.

In this kind of place, beauties are always easy to be noticed, and the audience will increase in the afternoon, so it is not convenient for Yan Yu to be here.

Some people say, is it worthwhile to join late?This is wrong, because in the later stage, others can easily score hundreds of thousands of points, and you only have 5 points, so it is difficult to fight against the big guys.Texas can't make a big deal with a small one. How many points you have left, you can win so many points from everyone at most each time.

The game in the afternoon seemed a lot more formal, and the players were all of a very high level. Lu Ling looked around at everyone, and some looked at him, and some were just playing with their phones, completely expressionless.

For skilled professional poker players, playing with mobile phones will not delay the betting here at all.It was almost impossible for Lu Ling to observe the expressions and status of professional players. Everyone was expressionless.

Not only that, Lu Ling also discovered that these people had formed a tacit understanding long ago.

To put it simply, if you look at each other, whether you know each other or not, you can basically understand who is a professional player at once.For example, if there are three professional players at this table, all you need to do is look at each other, and everyone will understand that they are all thousand-year-old foxes.

In this kind of situation, novices and players who bought points are just lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Unless they are very lucky, they will be easily surrounded and suppressed.

Lu Ling took a look at the crowd. There were at least 5 professional poker players and experienced poker players here, and only two were newbies.

Sure enough, in less than 20 minutes, the two newbies were beheaded one after another because of what they thought was a big-name stud.

In Texas Hold'em, no matter how big the card is, it doesn't mean anything. If you draw a straight flush, it doesn't make sense if you can't kill the big card with a high bottom score.It is easy for newcomers to be excited about big cards (and always pretend not to be excited), but for veterans and professional players, there is no excitement at any card, just a deadpan expression.
