Inside the experience store.
Su Jinyu and Zheng Hongxi were busy working on 'Lifeline'.
The others were playing their own games. Wen Lingwei was on the massage chair in the experience store, watching dramas on her tablet.
The experience store had become Wen Lingwei and the others' most frequent gathering place. Whenever they had something to do, they'd come to check it out and urge Chen Mo to make new games.
Chen Mo said, "Let's take a break and play a game."
"Huh?" Su Jinyu was a little confused. "Play games? What game are you playing? "
Zheng Hongxi raised his head with a blank expression. His plot idea was stuck at a rather convoluted point.
Jia Peng said, "Sure, manager. I have nothing to do anyway. What game is it?"
Chen Mo took out a deck of cards, "Poker."
Jia Peng: "… You guys chat, I'm leaving."
Chen Mo laughed, "Don't worry, you can watch from the side or be the dealer."
Wen Lingwei said lazily, "Mr. Manager, don't tell me it's Fight the Landlord. There are seven or eight of us here."
Chen Mo said, "It's not Dou Dizhu, it's a type of poker that none of you have played before."
Chang Xiuya said in surprise, "None of us have played it before? It can't be, right? "
Chen Mo said, "Come on, there are eight of us here. Jia Peng will deal the cards, so we'll have a seven-person table."
Su Jinyu asked, "Is there a limit to the number of people?"
Chen Mo shook his head, "No requirements, two to nine people can play, all the rules are supported."
Su Jinyu asked, "What about more than nine people?"
Chen Mo said, "Oh, in theory you can play with more than nine people, but there won't be enough space at the table."
Su Jinyu: "… That's quite convenient."
Chen Mo said, "Come to the meeting room, I'll teach you guys how to play."
Wen Lingwei said, "What's so fun about playing poker … Is there a reward for winning? If there's no reward, I won't come. "
Chen Mo replied, "Of course. The prize for the first place is a gift within 5,000 yuan. Everyone can choose freely. "
"Five thousand yuan?"
"Choose any gift?"
"F * ck, the manager is different now that he's rich!"
Everyone stood up at the same time and swarmed into the conference room.
Zheng Hongxi: "…"
Everyone sat around the long table in the conference room.
Chen Mo got a set of chips from god knows where and wrapped them in a special chip packaging.
Su Jinyu asked in surprise, "Manager, what is this?"
Chen Mo said, "Chips, you can think of it as money. But we can't play with money. Playing with money is considered gambling, so we use chips instead. "
Chen Mo said as he distributed the chips to everyone.
The chip was a small round plate slightly larger than a coin. Different numbers and colors were written on it.
Chen Mo gave each of them a chip worth five hundred, three chips worth one hundred, six chips worth twenty-five, and ten chips worth five.
"If that's the case, it's equivalent to each person having 1,000 chips. Whoever wins everyone's chips in the end wins. There will only be one winner in the end, "Chen Mo explained.
Su Jinyu curiously played with the chips in her hand, "Manager, are we really not going to be arrested for gambling?"
"… I won't, as long as you don't throw money on the table."
Wen Lingwei played with the chips in her hand, making a "hua la hua la" sound. "Do I have to play with these things? Not like Fight the Landlord? "
Chen Mo nodded, "Yeah, we have to play with these chips. Alright, everyone take your seats. Jia Peng, you sit here, right in the middle. Yes, you'll be in charge of dealing. "
Wen Lingwei raised her hand, "I object. I feel like everyone's luck will be worse if he's the one dealing. "
Jia Peng said, "… Senior, can you consider my feelings?"
Chen Mo said, "It's fine, everyone's luck will be worse anyway, so it's fair."
Jia Peng said, "… I don't feel comforted at all!"
Everyone took their seats.
Jia Peng was in charge of dealing. There were a total of seven people playing, in clockwise order: Wen Lingwei, Su Jinyu, Zheng Hongxi, Chen Mo, Chang Xiuya, Lin Hua, and Bai Xiaomeng.
Lin Hua was Jia Peng's roommate, a typical otaku who loved to play games.
Bai Xiaomeng was a girl, often called 'Bai Xiaomeng' by Wen Lingwei, and was also a member of the marketing department.
These two were frequent customers of the experience store, and were quite familiar with Chen Mo.
Chen Mo held the poker cards in his hand and spread them out on the table, "Since we're playing in private, the rules will be simplified. Everyone will draw a card, and the one with the biggest card will be the banker."
Su Jinyu asked, "What's the use of the banker?"
Chen Mo said, "The banker's position is more advantageous. Come, let's draw. "
Everyone began to draw their cards. Wen Lingwei had drawn a King, thinking that it would be the biggest, but Zheng Hongxi had drawn an Ace.
Jia Peng said, "They're all very lucky … I'm shivering."
Chen Mo placed a doll in front of Zheng Hongxi, "This represents the banker. After each hand, it'll be passed to the next person, moving clockwise."
"Let's go through this first."
"First, I'll emphasize the size of the cards. An ace is the biggest, and a two is the smallest. At the start of the game, everyone will be given two cards to start with. "
Su Jinyu asked, "So manager, is the smallest card a pair of two?"
Chen Mo shook his head, "No. The pair here is bigger than the individual cards. "
Wen Lingwei said, "Then the smallest card is a two and a three."
Chen Mo still shook his head, "No. The smallest card is a different flower 27. "
Wen Lingwei frowned, "Why?"
Chen Mo said, "Don't worry, I'll explain slowly."
"Everyone gets their hands. In theory, the biggest hand is a pair of aces, and the smallest is a different flower 27. However, the hand doesn't decide the final result, as it depends on the public cards. "
"The public cards are the cards that everyone can see, and there are five of them."
Chen Mo said as he dealt out the cards to everyone. Everyone had two cards. He then flipped five cards on the table.
"We'll talk about the details later, let's look at the shape of the cards first. Finally, we'll compare the size of the cards. You'll use the two cards in your hand and the five public cards, choosing five out of seven cards to form the biggest card.
"The order of card size is: Royal Flush, Royal Flush, Four Straight, Gourd, Flush, Straight, Three Straight, Two Pair, One Pair, and High.
"The Royal Flush is the same suit 10jqka, and the biggest card has to be an Ace for it to be considered a Royal Flush. Four Straight is four cards of the same type with a single card, and a Gourd is three with two. "
Chen Mo explained as he laid out the different card shapes on the table.
"What you need to note is that the smallest straight is a2345, and the biggest straight is 10jqka. Cards like ka234 aren't considered straight.
"If the card shapes are the same, such as both of us having a flush, then we'll compare the biggest card. For example, if your biggest card is a king and mine is an Ace, then even though we both have a flush, I'll still win.
