Global Trial

Cen Heng started to choose whether to continue calling.

Cen Heng's forehead was dripping with cold sweat visible to the naked eye.

Except for the time at the amusement park, this was the second time he faced the challenge alone, and it was a real challenge involving points.

Although there are not many points, but the poker game with ten players, facing the spotlight above the head and the auditorium that can't see the appearance clearly, can make the average person very nervous.

Cen Heng hesitated for a moment, maybe because of the mediocre cards in his hand, maybe because he didn't want to play too big at the beginning, he directly shook his head and said, "I won't follow."

Ren Sheng estimated that the cards were okay, so he made the opposite choice: "Follow."

Xia Mingdong glanced at Seth with a half-smile: "Of course."

Ning Ge has always chosen whatever Xia Mingdong chooses: "Follow."

"Beautiful!" Jamie applauded excitedly, "I like it like this, and the audience obviously prefers a good matchup to a cautious small bet."

"Then how to choose No. 7?"

Unexpectedly, after looking at Seth for a while, Xiao Gai didn't place any bets and replied directly: "I give up."

"Oh." Jamie shook his head, "This is really a regrettable thing, I hope you can have more exciting performances in the next time."

After pondering for a while, the white woman No. 8 said in a low voice: "I'll follow."

Number 9: "Follow."

Black woman No. 10 also had cold sweat on her forehead, and said after a while: "I give up."

Jamie shook his head disapprovingly, "I don't like to see this kind of situation. Before the public card is turned, two people say they give up. This will greatly affect the audience's interest. I hope this kind of thing won't happen again next time..."

"Then... it's our last number 1's turn." Jamie looked at number 1 expectantly, "As the first person who has the guts to get the number, will you bring us some surprises?"

No. 1 glanced down at the chips in front of him, smiled lowly, and rolled out 90 chips directly, "I bet 90 chips."

"Beautiful!" Jamie clapped vigorously, "Then ask the others... follow?"

Many people around the round table changed their faces.

Except for No. 1, they have the most chips at 90. If they want to follow, they must go all-in if they cannot afford to follow.

However, there can only be one winner in a poker game. If you choose to go all-in, you must be mentally prepared to lose all your chips. But if you don’t go all-in, the 50 chips you put in before will also be in vain.

Because Cen Heng had already given up, the statement started from Ren Sheng.

Ren Sheng pondered for a moment, perhaps because he wanted to save some chips for the next game, but he sighed strongly, "Give up."

Jamie's expression was regretful.

Xia Mingdong looked at Jamie with a smile on his face, and then said, "all-in."

Jamie whistled loudly, "I like people like you."

Ning Ge still made the same choice as Xia Mingdong: "all-in."

Jamie clapped happily.

Seth was still grinning, "Since there are still people who like to play exciting games, then of course I will accompany you. I choose all-in."

No. 8 gritted his teeth and followed suit: "all-in."

No. 9 chooses to give up with regret.

A round of poker, just after the Perflop session, there are only five players left on the round table to continue the game——

No. 1, No. 4, No. 5, No. 6 and No. 8.

"The five players who officially participated in this round of games have appeared, and now we will announce the popularity list."

Jamie waved his fluffy arm, and a popularity list appeared out of nowhere on the left side of the round table, indicating the popularity of each contestant.

Popularity does not show the specific number of votes, but only shows the proportion of each contestant. Currently, No. 1 accounts for the most—48%.

Next is No. 6 Seth – 35%.

No. 4 (Xia Mingdong): 6%

Number 8: 4%

No. 5 (Ningge): 3%

Number 7: 2%

No. 3 (Ren Sheng): 1%

Number 9: 1%

The popularity of No. 2 and No. 10 is too low to be included in the statistics.

Cen Heng leaned back on the chair with a pale face, like a mourning concubine.

"Have you seen the popularity list?" Jamie said with a smile, "This is how popular you are in the hearts of our audience. There are many surprises for everyone.”

Xia Mingdong squinted at the popularity list for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

The preferences of the audience are very obvious. They all like to watch the excitement, and they all like the big ones played by the testers. The more the testers play, the more the audience likes it, and the higher the popularity value.

No. 1 is the person with the most gambling spirit here, the first one to get the number, and the one with the largest chips, so the audience loves it the most.

If the audience only likes players to play big, then they probably don't even care about winning or losing. They will choose whichever tester makes them feel good.

But Jamie's words are very subtle, and the audience will bring them many surprises...

Maybe he will wait to talk to Lei Gong.

According to the preferences of the audience, there is no doubt that No. 1 and No. 6 are the most popular, but he is a little surprised that he is ranked third, although his popularity is only in the single digits.

It should be... the popularity brought to him by the aborigines who knew him.

Probably Lei Gong, I believe his performance in the amusement park last time should make Lei Gong a lot of money, and it is estimated that he can play for a year.

The other party took a fancy to him again this time.

According to the preferences of the audience, the popularity of other testers is also easy to understand.

As the small blind, Cen Heng was the first to bet, but he bet 10 chips very conservatively, and stopped calling when Seth raised to 50 chips, which was not in line with the audience's preferences.

"I believe everyone has read the popularity list." Jamie withdrew the popularity list without warning, "I have something to tell you, the popularity list changes in real time, and viewers can change their choices until the last moment. , but we will only show the popularity list before the Perflop session of each game, so I don’t know who will win in the end.”

Jamie said something meaningful: "It is because of the unknown that it will be more interesting."

Xia Mingdong: Heh

Jamie put the rest of the playing cards in the center of the round table, and walked around the round table by himself, "Next, we will perform a flop and turn over three community cards."

The playing cards were placed in the center of the round table. Jamie stood around the round table and waved his hands. With the movement of his arms, it seemed that a pair of invisible air hands had directly flipped three public cards from the top of the pile.

Xia Mingdong's pupils shrank slightly, and he didn't cut the cards before the flop.

Three public cards are turned over, namely J of Hearts, K of Hearts, and A of Clubs.

The cards in Xia Mingdong's hand were 3 of spades and 10 of clubs. There was no hope of a straight flush, bomb or full house, and he didn't even see a pair.

As expected, his face was as dark as ever.

After the flop, it will be the next round of raising soon, and now all the players who continue to participate in this round except No. 1 are all-in, and there is nothing to raise.

No. 1’s re-betting just increased the prize pool for nothing. If he wins, he won’t get more chips, and if he loses, he will lose the remaining 10 chips in his hand. He smiled and said directly: “No more, pass.”

Jamie shook his head regretfully, "Oh, you don't even bring great content to our audience anymore."

Number 1 smiled and remained silent.

Jamie waved and flipped over the fourth community card——

4 of spades

It had nothing to do with Xia Mingdong, he leaned on the back of the chair, smiling as if nothing had happened.

It's only a few dozen chips, he can afford to lose.

He tried to hide his tears with a smile, feeling distressed...

Although he has a lot of points, he still feels distressed if he has less points.

No. 1 did not continue to raise in this round, and then Jamie turned over the fifth community card——

cube 4

The five community cards are: J of Hearts, K of Hearts, A of Clubs, 4 of Spades, and 4 of Diamonds

Xia Mingdong's hand is 3 of spades and 10 of clubs

According to the cards in his hand, the only card type that can be pieced together is a pair, and all of them come from community cards, and his face is really dark.

All five community cards were turned over, and No. 1 did not continue to raise.

Jamie walked around the round table with a slow and meaningful voice, "Come on, the most exciting moment is about to come, now we are about to announce who is the winner of the first game, and now I will count down—— "

"3--"

"2--"

"1--"

"Flip!"

The moment Jamie waved his hand and said the flop, everyone's hole cards were turned over at the same time, including those who had given up halfway before.

Xia Mingdong didn't have time to find out who had the biggest cards, so he carefully scanned everyone's hole cards and memorized them carefully.

"Oops." Jamie looked at their cards in admiration and shouted: "Let's congratulate No. 6, he won the game!"

Seth grinned a wide smile.

Seth's hand was a 4 of clubs and a 4 of hearts, which combined with the public card made up four 4s and a pair of bombs.

The starting hand is a pair, and it happens to be able to make a pair of bombs with the public card.

Seth is really European.

Jamie walked behind each of them, occasionally commenting on their hands.

Xia Mingdong's hand was boring, and Jamie swept it away. When it was Ning Ge's turn, Jamie shook his head regretfully: "It was almost a pair of gourds."

Ning Ge's hand is a J of clubs and a J of spades. He starts with a big pair, and can make a full house of 3 Js and a pair of 4s with the public card. His luck is already very good, compared to Xia Mingdong's Africa is more than a little bit better.

The cat owner is indeed favored by the god of luck.

Jamie deliberately stayed behind No. 1 for a while. The hand of No. 1 was actually very ordinary, the 6 of clubs and the K of diamonds. Although there were big cards, the big cards were considered the worst cards in a 10-player game, but No. 1 bet Down to the max.

No. 1 is playing with the mentality of a gambler, no, or playing is a thrill.

The purpose of No. 1 may not be to win, but to perform...

The copy has said from the very beginning that this is a performance, as long as the performance is good, winning or losing probably doesn't matter.

Number 1 may have grasped this point, no matter what hand he holds, he chooses to play heartbeat and excitement with others.

Doing this may be okay for the first round or two, but Xia Mingdong doesn't believe that the final game will be like this.

In the trial world, although luck is important, it is not the fundamental factor that determines the outcome of the game. There is no instance or level where the outcome is purely determined by luck.

There are other noteworthy places in the copy.

After the card competition ended, Xia Mingdong didn't listen carefully to what Jamie said again, he kept staring at the cards on the table.

Those cards were collected regularly.

The author has something to say:

The previous chapter slightly changed the blind position and betting, which will not affect the following reading
