Xu Yun and Legend chatted as they played. Xu Yun looked at Legend with a smile. "That's a good name. Your father must be a man of many talents."
"Hahahaha, you're too good at joking, brother. My father only has a high school diploma. He didn't go to school at all. He relied on his luck to get to where he is today. If it weren't for the fact that he had some money, I don't think anyone would look up to him. But I have to say, once a person has money, they'll want to get a diploma or something. He actually spent money to get a master's degree from Shen Jiang University. Don't you think that's funny? "Legend laughed hard, as if he looked down on his father.
Xu Yun continued, "What's your father's business?"
Legend wanted to say, but he controlled himself and pretended that he didn't hear Xu Yun's question. "Every university in the country has connections. Better universities spend more money, and poorer universities spend less money."
"It's the problem of the education system." Xu Yun said, "Actually, the education system of the American Empire might be more successful."
"The education system of the American Empire?" Legend was stunned. He didn't think that the education system of the American Empire was that good. He had always thought that the people of the American Empire were very stupid.
Legend had his own experience. He once bought something for eight dollars in a store. He didn't have any spare change on him, so he handed over a fifty dollar bill and three one dollar bills.
If this happened in Hua Xia, even illiterate grandpas and aunties in small stores would naturally give him the change.
However, the people of the American Empire would never do that. They would naturally return the three dollars to you, and then give you the change of forty-two dollars.
"I still don't think the education system of the American Empire is good. The students of Hua Xia are better at studying. They can get a hundred marks easily." Legend said, "Not many people in the American Empire can get that many marks."
"I'm talking about university. It's very common in the American Empire. Although it's easy to go to school, it's not so easy to graduate." Xu Yun: "She's not like Hua Xia. She's just fooling around when she goes to university. She can easily graduate just by fooling around."
Legend laughed and nodded in agreement. It was really easy to graduate from Hua Xia University.
If one were to go to university in Hua Xia and still fail to graduate with a degree, then one would basically have no intention of going to university at all.
"Continue to deal!" Xu Yun patted the table, indicating that the dealer should not waste any more time.
The dealer immediately dealt them the cards.
Xu Yun's trump card this time was the Ace of Spades. The Legend's trump card was the King of Spades.
This time, when it was Legend's turn to bid, he increased the bet. His original bet was two million, but he doubled it to four million.
Xu Yun knew that the Legend of Mir wasn't going to play a game of pure luck with him anymore.
The reason he increased the bet was nothing more than a psychological battle.
There were very few real five-card stud winners who didn't use psychological tactics. After all, there was no general who could win all the time by relying on luck. Psychological tactics were very strange. Different cards had different psychological tactics.
In fact, it was very simple. For example, when there were many people, if you had a good hand, you would start with a pair of Aces. Those who played psychological warfare would pretend that they didn't dare to bid. Once they bid, most of their opponents would throw their cards. After all, no one wanted to risk their lives with a pair of Aces. If someone followed, they would follow, but they couldn't bid big. In the end, they would let their opponents bid. When they judged that their cards were bigger than theirs, they would play five-card stud.
This was a very simple psychological tactic. The more sinister the person was, the better they were at it.
Of course, in addition to this kind of psychological warfare, there were also three kinds of psychological tactics.
If you had three of a kind and bet big, your opponent would only have a 10% chance of following. If you used a cowardly method, you would bet a thousand instead of ten thousand, and your opponent would have a 90% chance of following. The fourth card was the key. If your opponent increased the bet, you would have more than him. This method had a more than 80% chance of winning.
Also, when you had a straight and your opponent saw that it was a straight, you would usually throw your cards when you played five-card stud. The probability of throwing your cards was more than 90%. At this time, it was best to let your opponent make a tentative move. You would bet ten thousand or twenty thousand to make your opponent feel afraid. The probability of a straight was small, and he would play five-card stud. Although the probability of five-card stud wasn't high, it was still 40%. Anyway, it was better than throwing your opponent's cards.
But most of the time, the real psychological masters played psychological warfare with scattered cards.
This method could be regarded as the concept of a typewriter. As long as you started with an ace or a king on the third or fourth card, as long as your opponent's cards were bigger, you would increase it to the maximum. Let your opponent mistake you for a pair, and there was an 80% chance that your opponent would throw your cards. If your opponent followed, it meant that you might have a small pair, and this was five-card stud.
If your opponent had a card, then you had encountered a more powerful psychological opponent. This kind of risky method obviously required you to drug your opponent, or it would be very dangerous.
It could only be said that the probability of winning with this kind of insidious method was relatively small, less than 20%, and the probability of frightening your opponent into throwing your cards was more than 80%.
Although it was just a simple five cards, there were many tricks in it.
There were many kinds of psychological warfare methods, such as a gourd, a four of a kind, a straight flush, and many other methods. In short, corresponding countermeasures must be made according to the situation at the gambling table.
If you didn't have a good mentality, you wouldn't be able to win in front of the five-card stud table.
In this round, four cards had been dealt.
Xu Yun's bottom card was the ace of spades, and on the table were the four of spades, the eight of spades, and the nine of spades.
Legend's bottom card was the king of spades, and on the table were the ten of spades, the queen of spades, and the jack of spades.
Everyone played spades, but Legend's cards were smoother. If he had an ace of spades, it would be a great straight flush!
But Xu Yun knew very well that the ace of spades was in his hands.
At this time, the fifth card was dealt. Xu Yun had a six of spades, and he had a flush. Legend's card was the ace of diamonds.
In fact, this was already a super straight, so Legend wasn't afraid of Xu Yun's messy cards. He didn't believe that Xu Yun would be so lucky to have a flush!
But Xu Yun really had a flush. He smiled and pushed forward his remaining hundred million or so. "Five-card stud!"
"Brother Xu, are you trying to play psychological warfare with me?" Legend was stunned. They had already bet thirty million because they had doubled their bets, and Xu Yun had lost twenty million to him. Now, Xu Yun had thrown out his remaining one hundred million!
To be honest, Legend really liked this kind of exciting person!
