[Endless Killing: My Fireball has a bug! – Chapter 283 Jack Twenty-One!]
The words “obliterated” still make people feel somewhat depressed.
However, the man in black, whose voice seemed to have been burned, was quite patient and continued to explain to everyone:
“You are lucky to have met a kind king.”
“He controls the entire secret realm and doesn’t want players to die easily.”
“Now, there are two choices before you—”
“First, submit to the king. Then, you won’t have to worry about points anymore. In fact, you can get a ranking on the designated points list just by performing well.”
As he spoke, the man in black added: “Oh, I forgot to mention that every time the points list is updated, all those who can get rewarded and ranked are Wang’s subordinates.”
The meaning is simple, that king is even strong enough to manipulate the rankings!
Everyone present looked a little stunned.
The man in black then went on to say the second option:
“Of course, you can also choose to fight on your own. In this casino, earn points little by little by yourself.”
These people had all been instructed by Lin Chuan before.
Besides, I don’t want to become the so-called running dog of the king of the secret realm.
Therefore, of course, my heart is more inclined to the first option.
But the man in black said again: “But, to play in the casino, you must have chips, and you don’t seem to have any chips?”
“The king is still kind, even if you are unwilling to obey him.”
“Wang gives all players who choose to fight for themselves a chance to start from scratch.”
“That’s where the gamble is taking place.”
“The winner gets 100 points.”
“The loser owes 100 points.”
“According to the secret realm rules, when a player’s points are less than negative 1,000, they will be eliminated by the rules.”
“Now, everyone, make your choice.”
Lin Chuan and others looked at each other.
There was no reason to hesitate, but He Xinyue asked cautiously: “Excuse me, what is the gambling game we are betting on?”
“It’s a very simple poker game. I’ll introduce the rules to you.” The man in black said, and a deck of poker cards appeared in his hand.
They looked at each other again, and finally chose option 1.
The man in black didn’t seem surprised by this choice, and even sighed: “It seems that you are all powerful people in the outside world, so you are unwilling to be inferior to others.”
As he spoke, his voice became more and more bizarre: “Wang Zun, you make the choice.”
Then, the man in black introduced the following rules of the game:
“The gambling game we played was very simple, it was called Jack 21.”
“The game board is the familiar poker board, with the Jokers removed and A to K left.”
“Among them, 2 to 10 㱕 of card faces correspond to 2 to 10 㱕 of points.”
“JQK represents 10 points.”
“A is a little special. It can represent 1 o’clock or 11 o’clock.”
“The player’s goal is to maximize his or her cards, points, and hand without exceeding 21 points.”
“Here, I am the banker. If my hand is over 21, you win no matter what.”
“If my hand does not exceed 21 points, you win. If my hand exceeds 21 points, you lose. If my hand is less than mine, you lose. Otherwise, you win.”
“At the beginning of the game, each player will be dealt two cards. One hidden card and one hidden card.”
“Players choose to draw a card or not based on the points of their two cards.”
“In addition, there is a special situation—”
“When a player reaches 21 points exactly with two cards at the beginning, we call this situation Black Jack.”
“The player who draws the Black Jack card will be rewarded by the King. The points will be increased from 100 to 1000.”
“Now is the ten-minute discussion time. Everyone is free to discuss.”
At first, it was still you looking at me and I looking at you.
Finally, Cao Dian couldn’t help but said happily: “This game is 21 points, I’ve played it before! In the case of Black Jack, you must get an A and a 10. For the rest, it depends on luck!”
Liang Jun had obviously played this game before, and he also analyzed: “Yes, it’s actually quite simple. Generally speaking, if the existing cards are less than 15, you can take it. If it is higher than 15, you have to be a little more cautious.”
Cao Dian also added: “Yes, it also depends on the situation of the dealer. In short, it is a very simple game.”
These two veterans were even a little excited and couldn’t wait to start the game.
Xiong Zheng, on the other hand, said with a very grim expression: “I just opened a treasure chest and got possessed by bad luck. Now playing this kind of luck game, I’m afraid it’s not a good idea…”
He Xinyue also nodded: “My luck is not very good either.”
Then, several people exchanged their gaming experiences.
When the discussion time was over, the man in black spoke again: “So, do you want to regret it now, or ask any questions?”
It’s not that there’s no point in regretting it.
After all, even if they lose a game, they will not be wiped out immediately.
Lin Chuan, on the other hand, asked a question: “Can players still discuss during the game?”
The man in black was completely shrouded in a black robe, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
After a moment of silence, he said: “You can discuss, but you can’t cheat.”
“During the game, revealing the hidden cards to anyone other than yourself is considered cheating.”
This is also easy to understand.
After all, a true master of this game will actually calculate the probability of the next card based on the cards on the field.
For example, a deck of cards only has 4 3s.
And if other players have 3 3s in their cards.
Then the probability that the next card in the dealt pile is a 3 is very low.
Likewise, if there is no 3 in the hand, the probability that the next card will be a 3 increases accordingly.
This game is actually a game of calculating probability and betting on luck.
Once the hidden cards are dealt out as hand cards, other players will be able to calculate the probabilities more accurately.
Lin Chuan then asked, “So, is it cheating to tell other players whether they want a card or not?”
The man in black was silent for a moment: “Not really.”
Then Lin Chuan said, “I remember that in a normal blackjack game, you can voluntarily discard your cards before the hidden cards are revealed? So this should also be possible in our gambling game, right?”
Man in black: “If you voluntarily discard a card, you lose half. That is to say, during the game, if you voluntarily discard a card, you only lose 50 points. And if I voluntarily discard a card, I only lose 50 points for each of you.”
Everyone nodded, and the man in black turned his face, which was covered by his hood, towards Lin Chuan and asked, “Anything else you want to ask?”
Lin Chuan thought about it and suddenly said, “You won’t cheat, right?”
The air was silent for a moment.
The man in black said in a hoarse voice like it was burned by fire: “I don’t bother to cheat.”
“That’s good.”
So, all discussions were completed and the game officially began.
The man in black is the dealer, and he is the first to deal the cards.
The seven players were seated in order, He Xinyue was the first to be dealt cards, and Lin Chuan was the last.
Of course, to be more precise, the banker is the real last one.
The first round is a face-down game. Players each look at their own cards and then observe the expressions of others.
A true master can even judge the size of other players’ hidden cards through some subtle expressions.
Lin Chuan didn’t look at it much and just sat in his seat calmly.
He always has a calm and composed air.
It seemed as if he was sure of victory, as if everything was under his control.
To be honest, that look really deserves a beating.
But he is…
Somehow it gives people the feeling that he is really awesome.
Luo Shuhong inexplicably trusted Lin Chuan and took the initiative to discuss: “Boss, will you give us some advice later?”
According to Lin Chuan’s question earlier, this behavior does not count as cheating.
Lin Chuan glanced at her and said “hmm” indifferently.
Xiong Zheng frowned unconsciously: “But boss, you don’t even know our hidden cards, how can you give us a hint…”
Lin Chuan didn’t answer him.
The man in black also started dealing the second round of cards.
He Xinyue’s eyebrows twitched when she looked at the A on top of her hidden card.
Although his expression did fluctuate, it was difficult to tell whether it was joy or worry.
Luo Shuhong didn’t try to hide it at all. When she saw the “2” on her card, she was speechless.
Cao Dian and Liang Jun were both veterans, and there was no expression on their faces.
And Rong Jie also drew an A, with a subtle expression on his face.
Xiong Zheng didn’t hide his expression either. With an 8 point, he looked very ugly.
It is not difficult to guess that his hole cards should also be around 8 points.
There are 16 points in total, which is the kind that is too small if you don’t draw a card, but it is easy to explode if you draw a card.
It seems that his self-declaration that he got the bad luck from the black treasure chest must be true.
When it came to Lin Chuan, he picked up a card, which was a 10.
There was no expression on his face.
The man in black who is the dealer, his cards make people stare in shock!
Because, it’s an Ace!
That is to say, up to now, out of the 8 cards on the field, 3 Aces have been played!
There are only 4 Aces in the deck!
In other words, the probability of the player touching A㱕 next time is probably very small.
The card A is also very special.
It can be used as 1 point or 11 points.
It is the best brand.
Especially the most powerful Black Jack, which requires an Ace!
And when the player sees that the card held by the man in black is Ace.
Even veterans like Cao Dian and Liang Jun couldn’t help but feel afraid in their hearts.
They are afraid that the dealer’s hole card is 10!
Then, combined with an A, it becomes Black Jack, and the dealer kills all!
This man in black has been in control of the overall situation, and he looks very impressive at first glance!
It is entirely possible for him to get Black Jack and kill everyone at the beginning!
Cao Dian and Liang Jun were already somewhat upset.
I have the urge to give up every minute!
According to the next process, the dealer starts to ask the players whether they want more cards.
According to the order, he first asked He Xinyue: “Do you want it?”
He Xinyue lowered her head, thinking about something, and then suddenly asked Lin Chuan: “Boss, do you think I still want it?”
Lin Chuan shook his head: “No.”
He Xinyue nodded and agreed: “Okay, then I don’t want it.”
The man in black didn’t see anything and asked Luo Shuhong again.
Luo Shuhong didn’t even ask Lin Chuan, she just made the decision herself: “Yes!”
Obviously, the probability of her having a hidden card is very small, and even if she gets another 10 points, it won’t explode, so there is no need to ask Lin Chuan’s opinion.
She continued to ask for a 5, her face a little stiff.
Later, Liang Jun and Cao Dian were very familiar with this game, so they did not believe Lin Chuan.
You don’t even know what the other person’s hidden card is, and you still help them decide whether to accept or not? Is that a joke? !
They are here, just ordinary people without any abilities!
The man in black also said that cheating will not be allowed!
In other words, without any skills, it is probably all about luck!
So, are they trusting the luck of someone who doesn’t know their cards?
Or do you believe in your own luck?
Cao Dian and Liang Jun chose to trust themselves, and they did not ask Lin Chuan for his opinion.
Both of them chose yes.
Cao Dian got a 9, his face turned very ugly, and he immediately shouted: “I choose to fold!”
Obviously, his hand was over 21 points, and he busted!
The man in black shook his head and laughed, “What a pity! If I explode later, you will suffer a great loss.”
Cao Dian didn’t think it was a pity.
Indeed, if the dealer’s hand is also over 21 points, then he will definitely lose a lot!
However, this man in black looks very powerful!
Cao Dian didn’t believe that his cards would explode!
He even suspected that the man in black had actually touched Black Jack!
