Shenhao Started From Bragging About Paying Taxes

At this point, the dealer has already started to deal the cards.

Li Tianyu and Steve each dealt a card.

This is not to officially start the game of blackjack, but to determine who is the dealer.

Li Tianyu turned over the card and found an 8.

The start seems to be good.

However, Steve turned it over and it turned out to be a J.

Steve became the bookmaker.

Steve smiled slightly: "Sorry, I've always been lucky."

Li Tianyu spoke English with a pure British accent: "Mr. Steve, if you are lucky, you can win a little money, but you can't win a lot of money, what do you think?"

Steve narrowed his eyes and his expression became serious.

I don't know if it's because of Li Tianyu's accent or because of the content of Li Tianyu's words.

The rules of blackjack are basically the same as blackjack, with one small difference.

The calculation of the poker points in everyone's hand is like this, the king, queen, jack and 10 all count as 10 points.

Aces count as either 1 or 11.

If the sum is greater than 21 when A counts as 11, then A counts as 1.

All remaining 2 to 9 cards are at their original face value.

If it is a two-player game, the dealer will first deal two cards to each side, which is the clear card.

The difference is that the dealer only needs to reveal one, and the player needs to reveal two.

At this time, the dealer dealt two cards to Li Tianyu and Steve each.

Li Tianyu is a player and knows two.

Steve is the dealer, one up and one down.

Li Tianyu has a 4 and a 9.

Steve showed an ace.

Everyone couldn't help but get nervous.

This means that Li Tianyu has to make a decision.

Why is this game called "Black Jack"?

Whether it is the dealer or the player, if the first two cards are an ace and a 10, it means that you have a blackjack.

If the player has blackjack and the dealer doesn't, the player gets double the stake.

If the dealer's open card has an ace, the player can consider whether to buy insurance or not, and the amount is half of the bet.

The dealer asked in English, "Do you want players to buy insurance?"

The player naturally refers to Li Tianyu.

The basic bet for this round is 500,000 US dollars, which can be said to be quite high, but for a rich person like Li Tianyu, it is not much.

But it's about winning the game.

If Li Tianyu is insured, the following situations will occur:

The dealer's card is blackjack, then the player gets his insurance money back and wins outright.

If the dealer does not have a blackjack, the player loses the insurance and continues the game for points.

Li Tianyu didn't think much: "Buy insurance."

Steve smiled slightly, not knowing what mystery was hidden in this smile.

Li Tianyu is also in his heart, you are laughing so much, unless you are a veteran, it is impossible to know what the hidden card is.

To put it bluntly, this is psychological warfare.

Bassoon in the monitoring room almost thumped his chest.

This Li Tianyu is too daring, he dares to take insurance in the first round, isn't this looking for shit!

The first game is only, the possibility of Steve having a blackjack is too low!

And Aya also showed a slightly disappointed expression, feeling that Li Tianyu had lost this game.

Dealer: "Do players continue to ask for cards?"

Li Tianyu is now "4" and "9", only 13 points.

Li Tianyu said in English: "HIT. (requires a card)"

The dealer deals a card.

A "2".

Li Tianyu: "I want a card."

The dealer sent another "4".

At present, Li Tianyu's points are 19 points, which seems to be enough.

Li Tianyu really gave up asking for cards and gave the initiative to the dealer Steve.

It's Steve's turn.

Now he needs to turn over the hidden card to see if there is any blackjack.

Except for Li Tianyu, no one would think that Steve's first two cards were blackjack, including Steve himself. The probability of that situation is too low.

Fortunately, it's just a loss of insurance money, 250,000 US dollars, which has nothing to do with the overall situation.

As expected, Steve's hidden card was a 7 of clubs, not a 10, so there was no blackjack.

Dealer: "The dealer has no blackjack."

Having said that, the dealer moved the 250,000 chips placed by Li Tianyu to Steve's side.

Steve laughed and said, "Young man, 250,000 is not easy to earn."

Li Tianyu smiled without saying a word.

Steve started asking for cards.

This time the dealer dealt him a very large card, an 8 of diamonds.

In this case, Steve's points reached 16 points, 3 points behind Li Tianyu.

Of course, Steve can still ask for cards.

But before that, Steve looked at Li Tianyu, and then put the chips in front of him into the betting area again.

Everyone was surprised.

It started, Steve began to harvest opponent Li Tianyu.

Those chips are worth a million dollars.

Counting the basic gambling chips, it reached 1.5 million US dollars.

It doesn't sound like much, but if you close the soft sister coins, it will be more than 10 million!

Will Li Tianyu accept the move?

Yang An and Wang Xiaoxiao were very nervous.

Follow or not?

If you follow, the bet is huge.

Li Tianyu's hand is only 19 points, and his chances of winning are not high.

If you lose this round, it will open the door to black, which is very demoralizing!

If you don't follow, you will lose the game directly, and the loss is controllable.

Basically everyone thinks that Li Tianyu should give up, win hundreds of thousands, and prepare to come back in the next round.

Unexpectedly, Li Tianyu said lightly: "Follow."

Steve smiled without saying a word, and opened his hand to the dealer, meaning to ask for a card.

This time, the croupier handed over the cards.

Frankly speaking, Steve's points are 16 points, there is a risk of explosion.

But Steve is not afraid, as he said, his luck has always been good.

So he got a new card and showed it directly.

Plum 3.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Is this... a draw?

Dealer: "Tie, return the bet."

Yang An and Wang Xiaoxiao looked at each other and could see the luck in each other's eyes.

Li Tianyu himself also felt lucky.

In fact, he was already prepared to lose this game.

Unexpectedly, there is also a "surprise joy".

You know you're going to lose, why keep going?

This is actually a habitual move of Li Tianyu as a gaming table expert.

No matter the size of the cards, no matter how big the odds of winning, you must follow, even if you lose, you don't lose momentum.

The most taboo thing in gambling is to be weaker than your opponent, which can easily become a precursor to a collapse.

At this moment, Bassong, who was staring at the big screen non-stop in the monitoring room, couldn't stop propping up the table with both hands, and took a few breaths.

Fortunately, I didn't lose, otherwise I would really become a big sheep.

Bassong has already asked his hand to contact the most famous casino expert in Pattaya, and he is counting on Li Tianyu to hold on for a while longer.

A staff member in the monitoring room couldn't help but say: "That Central Plains man is very powerful, and it was a draw."

Bassong glared at the man: "What do you know!? This is good luck!"

The staff were silent again.

Boss Bassoon has gone crazy.

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that the casino on the St. Lawrence is everything to him, but at least it's crucial.

The thought of not being able to eat meat, drink alcohol, and pick up girls with big hands, Master Bassong was really anxious.

At this time, the atmosphere at the gaming table was a little weird.

It's like the weather is terribly gloomy, but the storm never comes down.

Yes, in a more popular way, it is "big thunder and little rain".

Steve didn't care either. In his eyes, Li Tianyu was just a layman at the gaming table.

Even if it is a little bit of gambling, it is an extremely amateur level, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Come to think of it, Li Tianyu is so young, and he still wears colorful clothes, and his shorts and vests are about to come up, which is really not what a professional gambler should look like.

Steve: "Young man, you seem to be lucky."

Li Tianyu was still smiling, without words.

Steve: "But like you said, it's impossible to win all the time, or... draw by luck alone."

Li Tianyu: "Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Steve, but let's play the game."

Li Tianyu meant that Steve had too many words.

Steve, probably as an American, didn't hear it and laughed instead.

There was a draw just now, and Steve was still the bookmaker.

The croupier deals the cards.

Li Tianyu is still bright, and Steve is still bright and dark.

This time, neither of them showed any signs of blackjack, and they began to enter the comparison mode.

Li Tianyu's two cards: Diamond 5, Club 6.

Li Tianyu: "HIT (the key card)."

Li Tianyu held the third card in his hand, but instead of looking at it, he put some chips in his hand into the betting area.

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Li Tianyu to be so bold.

In the monitoring room, Mr. Bassong went crazy again and kept saying: "Idiot, how can this work? Isn't this looking for shit!"

Steve's strength had already frightened Bassoon.

With his ideas, Li Tianyu can't take the initiative to attack, and adopting a defensive strategy is the safest.

Don't lose when you win!

However, Li Tianyu used his own money for gambling, and he didn't need to spend his Basong's money. He just complained and couldn't say anything else.

However, Aya, who was at the scene, was quite surprised by Li Tianyu's behavior, and was a little admired.

When the masters of the casino faced Steve, they were all timid, and they never raised their bets at all, and they all lost everything.

This Central Plains man named Li Tianyu gave people a refreshing feeling.

Win or lose, courage is commendable.

But Aya still feels that Li Tianyu is definitely not Steve's opponent.

Steve is really amazing, he almost kills every game, and he rarely loses a game.

At this time, after Steve heard Li Tianyu's words, he smiled and said, "Follow."

Li Tianyu asked the dealer for another card.

He showed the last card, the 5 of spades.

There is also a hidden card, he doesn't seem to plan to show it now, but wait until the end to show it.

This is allowed under the rules of the casino.

Now it's Steve's turn.

Steve showed two cards: 10 of spades and 2 of diamonds.

His third card was the 6 of hearts.

Steve's points are currently 18.

The three cards that Li Tianyu showed were 16 points.

Will Steve still ask for cards?

Now that the possibility of Steve blowing up is too great, most people obviously won't want it anymore.

However, Steve's face was not flushed, his heart was not beating, and he put some chips in front of him into the betting area.

Steve: "Raise a million and give me another card."

Everyone was surprised.

This is going to be a tough fight with Li Tianyu.

Raise a million and that's $2.5 million for the entire table!

Moreover, Steve has to take another card.

This is simply daring!

Too bullshit!

Speaking of which, many people are double-standard dogs.

When Li Tianyu raised a bet just now, everyone thought that he was trying to get ahead.

Yet when Steve did it, he felt like a mighty fighter and a lot of courage.

It seems to be similar to the feeling of the Dragon Slayer.

The dealer deals Steve a card.

Steve didn't look at it, it just lit up.

It's an Ace of Spades!

Everyone present took a deep breath.

This is simply a stroke of genius!

Steve is really great.

If this card exceeds 2, it is the result of busting.

However, it is a 1, which adds up to 20 points.

It is no wonder that people who perform bravely at the gambling table are often the lucky ones.

And Steve, is such a character!

At this moment, even Hadern, who was sitting in the back, applauded and laughed.

"As expected of Steve!"

"Let's open our eyes!"

Almost didn't say "Steve, I'll add chicken drumsticks to you later".

Bassong closed his eyes and whispered: "It's over, it's over..."

Wang Xiaoxiao didn't dare to look at it, and turned his head away.

Only Yang An still has some confidence in Li Tianyu.

Steve smiled slightly: "Do you want to follow?"

Li Tianyu still had a condescending look: "Follow."

Everyone thought Li Tianyu was crazy.

The dealer, Steve, has 20 points, only 1 point away from the limit.

Does Li Tianyu think that the hidden card can create miracles?

Isn't it too whimsical! ?

Although they don't know what Li Tianyu's hidden card is, most people are sure that Li Tianyu's card will either not reach 21 or it will burst.

At most, this kid will have a bad luck, get 20 points, and it will be a draw.

More importantly, Steve noticed that Li Tianyu, who was sitting opposite, didn't look at the hidden card at all.

In other words, this kid doesn't know what the result is either.

At this point, the croupier said in English, "Please show your cards."

Li Tianyu didn't think too much, and turned over the hidden card directly.

Everyone's attention was completely attracted by that card, and they all wanted to see how Li Tianyu shit.

After they saw the card clearly, the room was terribly silent, and the needles could be heard!

Everyone, including Steve, had an expression on their faces—unbelievable.

Hadern was even more exaggerated, his mouth showing an "O" shape.

I saw that Li Tianyu's hidden card was a 5 of hearts!

Li Tianyu's two cards: 5 of diamonds, 6 of clubs, 5 of spades, and 5 of hearts!

That's right, Li Tianyu put together three 5s.

The four cards add up to exactly 21!

Exceeded Steve's 20 points!
