Chapter 352 Texas Poker Heads Up
Heads-up games of Texas Hold'em usually involve deep stacks. However, in order to avoid playing the game for too long, Professor Thomas gave two people 200 chips each. It was agreed that the big blind would be 2 and the small blind would be 1. chips.In this way, both of them hold 100 BB chips. When the chips are not deep enough, luck becomes more important.
The card game started immediately, and everyone else was watching.
"Osvia, lend me some luck!" Liu Xiaochuan called Osvia and kissed her hand.His purpose was actually very simple, just to make Williams angry and make him impatient.
Professor Thomas personally dealt the cards to the two of them. The first hand of Liu Xiaochuan was K9 of different suits. This is actually a big hand in a heads-up game, because in a heads-up game, the cards in the hands are all big cards. Very rarely, if your hand is bad, the opponent may actually be worse.
Liu Xiaochuan was the big blind, and Williams spoke first. He came up and directly raised 3 BBs, which was very powerful.Liu Xiaochuan didn't think he had a big hand, but he still folded, allowing Williams to harvest a BB.
Since the opponent's momentum is at its peak, you might as well use the arrogant soldier strategy to make the opponent proud for a while.In addition, Liu Xiaochuan is a bit superstitious. When playing mahjong during the Chinese New Year in his hometown, everyone always said, "If you die with a thousand cuts, you won't lose your head!", so he gave Williams the first one to win. Bar!
The most important thing in playing Texas hold'em poker is to understand the opponent's hand range, but Liu Xiaochuan does not have this ability. He can neither see through nor cheat.But he had read some books on this subject and knew that every card player would have a tell. These were inadvertent actions that he might not even notice.
Thomas was very brave in the subsequent poker games. He seemed to think he was lucky and raised bets frequently. He might also be very good at bluffing and wanted to use this to harvest the pot.In this way, he gradually gained a lot of chips.
Finally, Liu Xiaochuan made a reverse raise, which scared Thomas away. It was obvious that he had a lot of bluffing content.In fact, Liu Xiaochuan did not have a big name, so he successfully bluffed the opponent and gained 4 BBs from the opponent.
In the first dozen hands, most of them hit the flop. Finally, in the back, they hit the river card several times. Liu Xiaochuan won twice out of the three times. In one of them, his hand was not dominant, but he hit it on the last river card. Three, the river kills each other.
This made Liu Xiaochuan very happy, as if he really borrowed luck from Osvia.Thomas, on the other hand, was a little angry and took continuous deep breaths to calm down his emotions.
While playing cards, Liu Xiaochuan had been observing Thomas and found that when he read the hole cards, he would sometimes stagger the two cards, and sometimes let the upper one completely cover the lower one.He had roughly figured out the pattern. Whenever Thomas folded his cards very tightly, it was usually when he had a big hand, either an A or a K, or a pair.
Of course, it's also possible that Thomas did it deliberately to sell Liu Xiaochuan a flaw.But Liu Xiaochuan didn't believe that he had such a deep scheming. If he really had such a scheming, he would not be unjust if he lost.
Liu Xiaochuan was always looking for opportunities carefully and folded a lot. This made Thomas often use raises to harvest the pot, and his chips gradually surpassed Liu Xiaochuan's.
Finally, Liu Xiaochuan came up with a big card, which turned out to be AA's natural card. This card was the best before the flop. If it wasn't for bad luck, it would be difficult to lose.He habitually placed the cards on the table, held his chin with one hand, and touched the tip of his nose with his fingers.
Thomas still raised 3 BBs. Liu Xiaochuan saw Thomas's two cards overlapped. Obviously, his hand was not small. Both sides had big cards. This was a good opportunity.In Texas Hold'em, if you win 10 times in a row, sometimes you may not win as much as once. It is not important to get a big card, but it is important to let him play his value.
Thomas raised 3 BBs. Liu Xiaochuan thought for a moment and counter-raised to 6 BBs, which made Thomas look like he was bluffing.Thomas smiled and reraised to 12 BB again. Liu Xiaochuan seemed to hesitate and just followed the bet.
The three cards on the flop are [Ace of Hearts, J of Diamonds, and 6 of Clubs]. Thomas’s hand is A and Q of Diamonds, so he has a top pair, and there is also a chance of a flush. Of course, the probability is very high. small.
At this time, Liu Xiaochuan had already hit the three aces in the dark, which was a real nut.This time Liu Xiaochuan raised 3 BB, and Thomas again raised 12 BB. Liu Xiaochuan had to call again. He only had a few 24 BB left in his hand, and Thomas's chips were still close to 40 BB.
The turn card was a seven of diamonds, which made Thomas even happier, with a flush draw.
Liu Xiaochuan was still the one who spoke first. He pretended to hesitate before finally making a decision. It looked like a desperate move.
"Haha, Liu, have you ever noticed that you have a habit when playing cards? You hold your chin with one hand, and whenever you want to bluff, you touch your nose inadvertently with your finger. This means that you actually don't Big card. And in this hand, you have already called so many bets. If you fold, you will have very few chips left, so you want to scare me away with Aoyin's method, right? But it's a pity, my hand this time It was big, so I went with it!" Williams counted out enough chips to push into the pot, and was the first to show his diamond AQ.
The onlookers exclaimed that Williams was indeed the best card player among them. Liu Xiaochuan was no match for him. He was able to win last time because Williams was careless.
Professor Thomas dealt the river card, which turned out to be a 6 of diamonds. Williams really hit the flush, and everyone thought he was sure to win!Thomas shrugged, "Liu, it's your turn to show your trump card!"
Liu Xiaochuan smiled calmly and said, "Williams, do you think there is a possibility that my touching my nose with my finger was a trap deliberately set for you?" After saying that, he showed his two aces.
"Impossible!" Williams looked ashen.
"Nothing is impossible, you lose!" Liu Xiaochuan's full house was bigger than Williams' flush, and he won all the chips in the pot.
Of course, Williams still had more than 30 chips and a chance to make a comeback. After being harvested by Liu Xiaochuan several times, Williams began to gamble on his luck. At this time, if he wanted to make a comeback, he could only try again. If If you can pass three levels, you can still make a comeback.It's a pity that he couldn't pass a single level, and Oyin lost the first time.
"You win, Liu. I'm convinced. The last signature on the paper is yours!" Williams was single.
Liu Xiaochuan immediately took out 5000 knives to compensate Williams, then went over and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, if Osvia goes to China, you can also go with her. I welcome her!" As for whether he will go with him or not. , that is not something Liu Xiaochuan considers.
In short, the farce about the authorship of papers is over, so everyone is happy!At the same time, the day for Liu Xiaochuan to return to China was coming soon. He sent Shen Youwei a text message for the last time: "Xiaowei, we are going back to China next week!"
