Chapter 428: The card game begins, sherry, gin, vodka

Chapter 428 The card game begins, sherry + gin + vodka

On the third floor of the Monte Carlo Casino, there is a room decorated in a European last century style.

 There is a huge oval card table in the center of the room, with the dealer sitting on the long straight side.

Wearing a black suit and light blue eyes, Burnekov-Robert is sitting at the arc on the far left side of the card table.

At the straight card table opposite the dealer, from left to right are a white woman named Perna who is suspected to be CIA, Mrs. Hanover, and a blond white man named Vincent who is suspected to be MI6.

Roan was sitting at the arc on the far right side of the card table, far away from Burnekov-Robert, and on the left was Vincent.

Seeing Luo An pick up the wine glass, Bernekov-Robert smiled slightly and lowered his head to arrange the chips. Mrs. Hanover glanced at Luo An and withdrew her eyes expressionlessly. Vincent did not speak. Perna knocked on the table and urged. road:

"can we start?"

Luo An glanced at the chips in front of Perna and found that she had lost the most, half of them.

Mrs. Hanover followed closely behind and lost a lot, but she didn't care.

“Please draw cards and determine the dealer according to the size of the cards.”

The game played on this card table is Texas Hold'em with some minor rules. The dealer dealt five playing cards to the five people on the card table. The five people showed their cards one by one. Mrs. Hanover's card was the highest, and the dealer took it back. Poker nodded:

 “Mrs. Hanover is the banker, please place your bet.”

Mrs. Hanover was a little lazy. She picked up a red chip and threw it on the table. The dealer said:

 “Mrs. Hanover placed the small blind, 10,000.”

Soon, the dealer dealt the cards again, and the ten cards were placed on the table and distributed to the five people one by one. Luo An picked up his two cards and took a casual look. His expression did not change, and he began to use "emotional perception". "Feel other people's emotions.

Soon, the first card game ended. Luo An stopped betting midway and lost half a million. The expression on Caroline's face not far away did not change, but her eyes still moved slightly.

After a few rounds, Luo An lost nearly 3 million. The 2.4 million U.S. dollars when he entered the casino today has been completely lost.

Caroline, who was sitting at the bar not far away, stopped looking at who won and who lost at the card table in order not to expose herself, and instead started chatting softly with the woman brought by Bernekov.

Perna, who had been losing at the table, had won several times with Luo An. Not only did the anxiety on his face begin to disappear, but Zhongzhi also gave Luo An several smiles.

Burnikov and Vincent also won a few games respectively. Mrs. Hanover frowned slightly when she saw Luo An, who had been losing. Then her expression remained unchanged and she continued to place bets as if nothing had happened.

A new round of poker began. The dealer dealt two playing cards to each of the five people. The betting rounds of one, two, three and four ended quickly. Five illuminated playing cards appeared in front of the dealer. All five players at the table followed through to the final round.

 “Betting is over.”

 After the five people placed their bets, the chips in the center of the table totaled 11 million. The dealer spread his hands:

 “Everyone, please show your cards.”

Perna, whose face was flushed with excitement, was the first to show her cards. Her two hole cards and the five community cards in front of the dealer were just enough to form a straight.

 But it’s a pity that Vincent’s cards and Mrs. Hanover’s cards are both higher than Perna’s.

And Bernekov's card is higher than Mrs. Hanover's.

The ups and downs of the front foot giving birth to the back foot and dying made Perna look extremely ugly, and Vincent's face was also very ugly.

Mrs. Hanover's expression remained unchanged, and she didn't care about the lost money at all. She just turned her attention to Roan like Bernekov.

After four rounds of calling, Luo An only had more than one million chips left, and the rest were placed on the gambling table. If he loses this hand, unless Luo An's next hand is the largest and rarest royal card Flush, otherwise Luo An's chances of leaving the gambling table are not very high.

Burnikov is also keeping a close eye on Roan. His cards in this round are four with the same number, which is the biggest card on the table. It is not easy to beat him.

Amidst everyone's different looks, Luo An chuckled and pushed his cards to the dealer. The dealer opened Luo An's two cards, combined them with the five community cards on the table, and said quietly:

“Flush, Mr. Brian (Luo Anxin’s pseudonym) has the best card.

 The game is over and the cards are collected. "

 After confirming that all parties had no objections, the dealer put away the cards on the table and pushed all the chips on the table to Luo An.

In this game, Perna, Vincent, Mrs. Hanover and Bonykov each lost more than 2.5 million. Luo An not only won back his principal, but also made more than 3 million.

 “shit!”

Perna, who lost again, cursed in a low voice, then raised his hand and said loudly:

 “Bartender, bring me a glass of Gordon’s gin on the rocks.”

Vincent next to him heard this and said loudly:

"Same!"

Mrs. Hanover and Bernekov didn't speak. Luo An glanced at the two of them, and then at Caroline, who was sitting at the bar chatting with someone but keeping her ears open to listen to the situation. She smiled slightly and turned to the bartender. Shengdao:

“Three parts sherry, one part gin, one part vodka, one part agave, shake with ice, and add a lemon slice.”

 “…Okay sir.”

The bartender's mouth twitched when he heard this. This was the first time he heard such a request for bartending, but his good professionalism prevented him from questioning it and he immediately nodded and agreed.

Soon, the intermission was over, and after the bartender brought all the drinks requested by several people to the table, a new round of card games began again.

  In the next few card games, Luo An lost and won, but mostly won. Mrs. Hanover, Vincent and Perna basically didn't win much, and Bernekov won more cards than Roan.

 Time passed by, and after more than two hours, Vincent lost all 10 million in chips. Shen left the card table with a face and sat at the bar to chat with people.

Mrs. Hanover also lost a total of 17 million, but she still had 10 million chips in front of her, so she was still sitting lazily on the chair, her expression unchanged, as if there was no winning or losing in her eyes.

Perna lost all her chips faster than Vincent, but after losing her initial nine million, she left the room for a moment, and soon returned to the gaming table with another twelve million in chips, her head held high. .

This scene attracted everyone in the room to look at her sideways. Even Luo An couldn't help but look at her twice.

 Luo An didn’t know whether the money belonged to Perna himself or to the CIA... If it was the latter, I can only say that the CIA was worthy of being the CIA, and it was indeed rich and powerful.

At the poker table, there were only two people winning money, namely Luo An and Bernekov.

Bernikov’s original capital was relatively large, a full 20 million. Coupled with the money won from other people, the chips in front of him have accumulated to about 48 million.

However, Bonykov with light blue eyes was not the one who attracted the most attention. Luo An, who was sitting opposite him and occasionally picked up the wine glass and took a sip, attracted the most attention from the onlookers in the room.

 Luo An initially had the smallest capital among the five, only US$6.7 million.

 But now, Luo An has several thick and tall layers of chips stacked in front of him, which add up to a total of 34 million.

 A new round of poker started, and the four rounds of betting ended. Perna stopped betting midway. The only ones following at the end were Roan, Bernekov and Mrs. Hanover. The chips in the middle of the table had accumulated to 30 million.

Mrs. Hanover was still lazily leaning on the chair. Bernekov narrowed his eyes and stared at Luo An. Luo An picked up the wine glass and took a sip. The dealer placed the five community cards and said:

 “Three of you, please show your cards.”
