Chapter 84: Poker That Is Not Existed in This World

Chen Mo rummaged through the Internet, and suddenly, he slapped his head.

"yes, Texas Hold'em doesn't seem to have one!"

But how could Texas Hold'em not have it? This is not scientific! ”

Chen Mo had been wondering just now, which game was missing, but he searched for it, there is no Texas Hold'em in this world? Isn't that?

Chen Mo continued to flip again, and even found many foreign websites, and finally found that there was no! There's really no such thing as Texas Hold'em in this world!

"Sure enough, I just felt like something was missing, there really wasn't Texas Hold'em!"

"Yes, the last piece of the puzzle has finally been found."

Chen Mo was also a little excited, and finally, the framework of the entire chess and card game was complete.

……

Texas Hold'em is not considered a popular game in China, and if you only count the number of users, it is not as good as fighting landlords and mahjong, and its popularity is much worse.

However, Texas Hold'em is extremely hot in some small circles, and the water is incredibly deep.

The founders and CEOs of some large companies in the IT circle, entrepreneurship circle, and investment circle are extremely keen on Texas Hold'em, such as Kai-Fu Lee, Liu Chuanzhi, Jack Ma, etc., are all fanatics of Texas Hold'em.

And in the world, Texas Hold'em can be said to be popular all over the world, especially in the United States, if someone says that he plays poker, then he is most likely playing Texas Hold'em.

In the World Series of Poker (WSOP), Texas Hold'em tournament prizes, jackpots, even reached $10 million, and a chef from Sweden once won the championship and became rich overnight.

Many people may be very puzzled, why Texas Hold'em has such a big charm?

If there is one sentence that sets Texas Hold'em apart from other pokers, it is this: Texas Hold'em is a poker game that can be consistently profitable.

Yes, it sounds fantastical, but it's true.

Other chess and card games, such as fighting landlords, mahjong, and fried golden flowers, all have a strong gambling nature, and skill is very important, but luck is even more important. If you fight landlords or mahjong as a profession, the profit and loss largely depends on luck, which is tantamount to gambling.

The characteristic of gambling is that if you gamble for a long time, you will lose, and no one can guarantee that this thing can maintain stable profits.

But Texas Hold'em is a game that can be consistently profitable, and if you play Texas Hold'em and keep losing, it only proves one thing: you're too good.

Abroad, there are many professional Texas Hold'em players, such as Phil Ivey, who have won 24 championships in various tournaments, made more than 100 money dollars, and won a total of more than $20 million in total prize money throughout his career.

In China, there are also many professional Texas Hold'em players, with a stable monthly income of about 100,000. For various reasons, the promotion of Texas Hold'em in China is limited, but even so, the number of Poker players in the country is as high as 60 million.

Why is Poker a game that makes money consistently? Because the rules are more complex than most poker games, you can choose to withdraw at any time or double your stack by raising wildly.

And, when playing Poker, you can judge your opponent's hand based on their behavior (raise, flat, etc.) and play with different strategies.

Poker is not like the Fried Golden Flower, which is completely dependent on the hand, you will win when you get the super strong card, but the final win or loss of the Poker depends on the five community cards, theoretically, even if your hand is the smallest different flower 27, it is possible to win the largest hand against A.

To play Poker, you need to be good at probability, good at hiding your expressions, knowing how to guess your opponent's hand through their actions, and maintaining a good attitude. The proportion of luck in winning and losing can be said to be minimized.

Like a master and a rookie play, maybe every hand of the rookie is better than the master, but the master can break the rookie through the psychology of playing, which is not an exaggeration at all.

In games like landlord fighting and mahjong, rookies may be able to win one or two big games by luck, but in Texas Hold'em, rookies will never have this opportunity.

……

The big framework was determined, and Chen Mo began to write the design document.

The rules of the chess and card game are relatively clear and simple, and it is much faster to do than "My name is MT", this time Chen Mo plans to roughly complete the "Thunder Game Platform" and "Thunder Chess" within a month, and then take a week to adjust, and then go online directly.

The next morning.

Chen Mo sent a design outline to Su Jinyu.

"The outline is written, you can add the specific rules, don't move anything related to the plot first, and let him be responsible when Zheng Hongxi comes. This game is done by the two of you together, which is also equivalent to testing his plot design ability. Chen Mo said.

Su Jinyu received the document sent by Chen Mo, and what surprised her was that this design document was very small, only one or two hundred words.

"A lifeline? Word adventure games? Su Jinyu was surprised.

Chen Mo nodded: "Well, it's mainly for you and Zheng Hongxi to practice, I have already marked out a few points that need to be paid attention to in the document, how far this game can be done, it depends on the two of you." ”

Su Jinyu said: "But, store manager, this game seems too simple, right? ”

Chen Mo smiled: "Simple games can also be done great, don't look at the masters." Think more about adding a few new ways to play under this framework. ”

Su Jinyu nodded: "Well, okay." I know. ”

After handing over "Lifeline" to Su Jinyu to design, Chen Mo put all his thoughts on the Thunder Game Platform and Thunder Chess.

"Lifeline" is a text adventure game, and Chen Mo also wants to use this game to practice Zheng Hongxi and test his plot design ability.

When "Thunder Chess" and "Lifeline" are finished, Chen Mo will start planning the first large-scale game.

……

In the next two days, Chen Mo was mainly refining the design documents.

The three products on Thunder Chess and Cards, Happy Landlord, Happy Mahjong, Thunder Poker (that is, Texas Hold'em in the previous life), the user groups of these three do not completely coincide, so it is necessary to make three different games, but many art resources of these three games can be used, such as character appearance, prop icons, playing cards, etc.

For these resources, Chen Mo directly threw them to the outsourcing company to do. Because there are also board games in the parallel world, these resources are all over the place, and they can be used if they are changed at will, and there is no need to be too strict to require the quality of art, so Chen Mo's only requirement is to be fast, and all the art resources must be out within two weeks.

Chen Mo's main work in the design of chess and card games focuses on two aspects, one is to refine the relevant rules of the beginner's guide, and the other is to make a set of rules for the competition field that other chess and card games do not have.
