William and Prince Wilson stood up and walked towards the gambling table. They smiled and said to everyone, "I'd better forget it. I don't want to win all your money and be scolded by you. Don't you watch TV? I have a memory genius. I can memorize a deck of cards in just 20 seconds."
"Hey, William, you will die if you don't brag. You know you can win before you even start playing. Besides, what does Texas Hold'em have to do with memory? Texas Hold'em is about patience, psychology and skills," Gary said unhappily.
"Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't have tried to be smart in front of you. Gary, can't you please not expose me? None of my new friends today know me. Can't you let them think I'm a veteran?" William complained as he sat next to the dealer.
It was William's first time attending such a party, so when someone invited him, he didn't act pretentiously and just sat down.
Everyone laughed when they heard William's funny words. But only Arthur nodded in agreement with William and said, "Maybe William is really amazing. You better be careful and don't be fooled by William."
Everyone was in the same circle and knew who Arthur was and what he did. After hearing what Arthur said, everyone realized that William had been joking with them and playing mind games since he sat down at the table.
Today's poker game is played with a capital of 2,000 pounds per person. You cannot add more money after losing. It is a game of 10-20 pounds.
In his previous life, William often played Texas Hold'em with his friends. They were small games worth 1-2 RMB. After playing for a long time, William had some experience and could not be considered a rookie. Moreover, he had a cheating device. Every time his opponent looked at the cards, William could know what his opponent's hole cards were.
So he can avoid all the traps when comparing cards, and his opponents are often bluffed when they don't have big cards. Today's people are extremely uncomfortable playing with ethics and are often bluffed by William.
If the opponent gets good cards, William can often avoid them and will not follow.
Sure enough, just after two hours of the game, only William and Arthur were left. After William's last straight flush defeated Arthur's full house, the game was over.
No one expected that William playing poker would really be as he said. Seven or eight veterans were defeated by a rookie. Everyone looked incredulous.
In the past, they could play this kind of card game for several hours, but today, William took all the chips in just 2 hours.
Wilson had been watching William play. He knew that several times after William folded, his opponent had a bigger hand than William. It was as if he could know his opponent's cards.
Prince Wilson was very well-educated. He stayed behind William and never disturbed him. Even if he had questions, he didn't ask them. Now that the game was over, he hurriedly asked, "William, why do you always avoid your opponent's traps? Like when you had two kings and my father had queens and jacks, and the public cards were 4, 7, and qq, why did you act like you knew my father had a queen? And you didn't even look at the last card. What if the last card was a king?"
"Ha, Your Highness, when playing Texas Hold'em, you don't pay attention to what cards you have, but what cards your opponent has. Although your opponent's subtle movements and reactions when looking at the cards, and facial expressions may not reveal anything, the eyes and muscles cannot lie. When the fourth public card was dealt, I noticed that Prince Charles' pupils were shrinking and his body was shaking slightly. Ha, this is a sign of getting good cards, and the rest is a matter of probability."
He would never tell Wilson that the other two kings in that game were taken by others, so there could be no king in the hole card.
William paused, thought for a moment, and then said, "The probability problem is a bit complicated. Your Highness, let's not talk about it anymore. It really will take a few hours to finish. And you certainly won't be interested in listening to those mathematical formulas in a bar."
"Okay." Wilson immediately lost interest when he heard William talk about mathematical formulas.
When the others heard that William could judge the quality of his opponent's cards by looking at his eyes and the movement of his muscles, they couldn't help but laugh and scold: "William, it seems that next time we play cards, we all have to wear sunglasses and stay still like puppets."
"Yeah, I didn't expect you to notice your opponent's pupils and body. I have never heard of this technique. William, you must have other techniques that you haven't mentioned. Teach me. I have never won this kind of card game. Can you teach me some tricks so that I can win once?" Garys, who has the best relationship with William, pulled William to ask for advice.
William shook his head and said, "It's called a secret. If I teach you, what will I play next time? I won't tell you this kind of secret."
William would never say that he can use his mental power to see when his opponent is looking at his cards. Although he cannot see the covered cards, he can see the cards picked up by his opponent. This advantage is too great when playing Texas Hold'em.
In fact, this ability of his is even more advantageous when playing all-in poker. Anyone who plays all-in poker with him will definitely be beaten to death by him.
It was almost 6 o'clock, and Prince Charles stood up and said goodbye and took Wilson home for dinner. Princess Diane was still very strict with Prince Wilson.
After William and the others saw the two princes off, they were pulled to a corner of the bar by Garris and Commander Richard Blomley.
After the waiter brought them a bottle of whiskey, Garris asked William, "William, have you finished recruiting Team W?"
William looked at Commander Richard Blomley and fell silent.
"Don't worry, Richard is one of us. Your identity is known to us. Everyone knows that the Devonshire family has taken over the W Group. Richard is the commander of the police station's anti-terrorist special operations team. He came to me for help."
Okay, William figured out who this Commander Richard Blomley was. Wasn't he the black commander in Uncle Long's "The British Showdown"? So, there really is a person named Uncle Long in this world. Should we call Uncle Long over as well?
"We have already recruited. As for how many people and who they are, I can't tell you. You know the rules," William nodded.
Garris and Commander Richard Blomley nodded.
Commander Richard Blumley said, "I need your help, William. I need someone who is not affiliated with our department to help me find someone."
"Who are you looking for?" William asked
"There's a Malagasy mercenary named Carlos. We suspect he was planning to blow up the Tianxing S570. We've found and captured many mercenaries who, like Carlos, were involved in the bombing of the Tianxing S570. But we haven't been able to find the mastermind behind this for a long time, and many of our own people have died inexplicably.
So we suspect that there are people from the other side in the English police system. I need a team like your W team, which is unknown to the public, to secretly investigate Carlos and find his mastermind. "
After hearing this, William wondered where he had heard of Tianxing S570 before.
"Is there any information?" William asked
Garris took out a document and handed it to Willy.
Wei Li opened the briefcase and saw a large plane. It looked bigger than any plane he had seen in his previous life. It had four engines, but it looked a bit ugly.
Commander Richard Blomley introduced the aircraft to Wei Li, saying, "This is a new four-engine large passenger aircraft developed by Tianxing. It can carry over 600 passengers, 200 more than the largest aircraft currently. This company is currently at a critical juncture. Our country's airline has invested 30% in the development of the Tianxing 570, so we absolutely cannot allow any problems with the Tianxing 570, otherwise the losses will exceed billions of pounds."
After listening to this, William looked at Garris. Garris understood that William was asking why the Military Intelligence Bureau was not allowed to handle this matter. There was an undercover agent from the other side among the police. Wouldn't the Military Intelligence Bureau just take over?
Garris hesitated and said, "William, we suspect there is a traitor in the Military Intelligence Agency."
"You are kidding me," William replied in disbelief
Garris said hurriedly, "In recent years, our Security Committee has always suspected that there is a traitor in the Military Intelligence Agency. We have frequently experienced leaks in Europe and Africa, but after years of searching, we have finally discovered the cause. This is one of the reasons why the Committee agreed to your re-establishment of Team W. We need a team that is unrelated to any of the current departments to secretly investigate internal issues."
William knew that it was not a good thing to let him form a group with nothing to do and give him special action rights to investigate anyone he wanted.
"Okay, when will I start?" William nodded.
"The sooner the better. It's only a few days away from the test flight of Tianxing 570," Commander Richard Blomley said a little anxiously.
"Okay, I will give the task to my team members today, and they will go to Madagascar to capture Carlos tomorrow." William pointed at the photo of Carlos in the information with his finger.
He took photos with his mobile phone and sent the information and mission requirements to Barney of the Suicide Squad.
