Chapter 166 Increase the stakes
Updated: 2012-07-11
Chu Yan stretched out his hand and made a call, while Balang Davis's expression was a little ugly. After all, no one seemed to understand his words. He, a quarterback who is a little famous in the American sports industry, was really embarrassed.
In fact, this cannot be blamed for Balang Davis. In the United States, professional football games are very popular, and there are many people who like them. All the games have good ratings. However, this is China. People who like to watch football are rare, and there are very few. Even if someone likes it, they are still full of muscles. Bangzi fantasizes all day long how to develop a strong and toned body like a rugby player. As for beauties, there are fewer and fewer beauties who like devilish muscles these days. In their eyes, rugby games, whether it is a domineering collision or a strong touchdown, are all of the types of barbaric sports, and basically not too many people are interested.
"Wait, man, are we going to add some bets? It doesn't seem to be meaningful to play a game alone like this. What do you think?" Chu Yan had been waiting for Balang Davis for a long time. The boy came over to challenge him. If he didn't say some bets, he would probably lack interest in Chu Yan in this game. Even if Balang Davis didn't say it, Chu Yan had to find a way to make him speak. After all, Chinese men are very graceful and must not take the initiative to ask for any bets. That's too vulgar!
"Although gambling is a bad thing, since you are an international friend and have been so sincere, I decided to meet your requirements and say what bet do you want to add?" Chu Yan said very slowly. Of course, he used English. Almost all the beauties around him could understand. After all, Chu Yan's speaking speed was very slow and his words were straight. In addition, Chu Yan intended to speak so carefully, so the beauties around him suddenly lit up his eyes and were full of interest in this game that was about to kick off.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying of viewing on the wall. To this day, there have been many variants, cheerleaders, onlookers, etc., and billiards are considered elegant sports competitions, and there are even more beautiful girls with high scores to cheer on the side. At that time, it doesn’t matter whether they are cheering or cheering on the side. After all, having beauties watching the game on the side is good even if they are pleasing to the eye.
"Three games, let's have a small meaning in the first game. How about 100,000 US dollars?" Balang Davis took out a check book from his pocket and signed a check worth 100,000 US dollars. Judging from the meaning, the kid seemed to have already figured it out.
"Yes." Chu Yan looked at Balang Davis signing the check, and immediately raised the boy a little bit. He was not stupid at all. He knew to touch Chu Yan's bottom tentatively. If Balang Davis added the chips heavily as soon as he came up, then Chu Yan felt that it was meaningless. If you step on someone, you have to step on it bit by bit to impress the person who was being stepped on, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of never provoking him again.
"Let's start." Balang Davis did not ask Chu Yan to take out the check as well. He was not a fool. He could receive Wendy's invitation. He was also Wendy's savior. He would not have a check on him, so it was the king to show all his strength on the table.
The rule of nine balls is very simple. In addition to the size requirements of the table, there are also clear regulations on choosing the right to kick off. Castina looked at the diamond-shaped ball on the table, smiled slightly, then stood out and took the No. 1 ball at the top of the diamond-shaped ball, and then placed it on the side of the kickoff point like the white ball.
"Two, choose the ball right, start." The method of choosing the nine-ball kick-off right is very simple. Put the two balls behind the kick-off line and then hit the top case at the same time. When the ball is folded back, the one closest to the bottom case has the right to take the lead in kick-off.
"Bang! Bang!" Almost at the same time, Chu Yan and Balang Davis hit their balls at the same time. At this moment, modesty and courtesy are nonsense. It is the main thing to use all their strength to knock down the opponent.
A white ball was hit by Chu Yan, and a No. 1 ball was hit by Balang Davis. Both balls were not fast, because the internal length of the entire case was only 2.54 meters, and the elasticity of the edge of the ball case was very strong. So when the two balls were hit slowly, they were almost placed on the opposite top case in no time and no matter how far they were, they bounced back slowly.
Three seconds later, the two balls stopped separately, with almost no big difference in distance. After Castina's professional measurement, it was finally confirmed that Balang Davis won the first kick-off.
"Man, I'm not polite!" One of Balang Davis' hobbies is billiards, but he plays more American billiards, that is, the kind of billiards with fifteen balls, and he also plays nine balls, but he plays less, but the rules are very clear.
"Bang!!" With a crisp impact, Balang Davis hit the cue ball with a calm punch and hit the number one ball. Then the diamond-shaped ball array instantly dispersed, and one of the number three balls placed at the lower left corner of the diamond-shaped one fell swoop smoothly into the middle bag.
However, the cue ball was not ideal until it stopped. There was at least two ball obstacles between the cue ball and the cue ball. Barron Davis suddenly smiled on his face, and then said to Castina, who stood up as a referee, "Push the ball."
Pushing is a professional term in the American nine-ball rules. It refers to the fact that if a player on one side enters the bag after the kickoff, but the position of the table ball is not ideal, the player has a chance to push the ball and hit the ball to another position. The main ball does not have to touch the shore. Before putting the ball, you must inform the referee or opponent before putting. If the player does not score a color ball after the kickoff, if the opponent finds that the table ball position is not ideal when hitting the ball, you can also use pushing the ball. However, after the push, the opponent has the right to not play, the player must play by himself.
Castina nodded. This was a common method of following the rules in nine-ball matches. Balang Davis gently pushed the cue ball to the left front of the table for a distance, avoiding the two obstacles between the number one ball, and then putting the left hand rod and right hand rod, hitting the cue ball without much aiming.
"Ba! Ba!" The cue ball accurately cut one third on the left side of the No. 1 ball. The No. 1 ball instantly fell into the corner bag, while the cue ball drew an arc and swept the No. 2 ball into another corner bag!
Two poles, one stone, two birds!
Everyone who watched the game praised Balang Davis for playing such a wonderful double shot at the beginning. Of course, the polite applause rang out in time. I wonder if it was affected by the international nine-ball game. The beauties watching were very quiet. No one whispered, but they just stared at Balang Davis with a smile on their faces, because Balang Davis had already pushed the No. 4 ball into the right waist bag while talking.
It can be seen that Balang Davis is very skilled, at least among amateur players, and he is definitely 100% expert. Chu Yan held a club that he picked up from the side casually, and the smile on his face was always calm. This kind of thing is common for clearing the table in one shot in nine-ball games, but that is only common in professional players' games, and Balang Davis should leave him a chance.
"Bang!" The No. 5 ball fell into the waist bag, and a trace of surprise appeared on Castina's face. Balang Davis's skills were really good. Of course, in Castina's eyes, it was good, and it was already a very high evaluation. That was the evaluation of the queen of nine balls, and the value was high. However, before Castina's praise could be landed, Balang Davis made a mistake.
Strictly speaking, it was not a mistake, it was just a minor mistake. When he hit the No. 6 ball, there was a No. 8 ball between the cue ball and the No. 6 ball. Under the observation of Balang Davis, this No. 8 ball was not in trouble, so he hit the cue ball with confidence.
"Bang!" The No. 6 ball fell into the bag, but the No. 8 ball on the line also rolled about one centimeter to the left. In other words, Balang Davis' cue ball encountered No. 8 ball before hitting the No. 6 ball with the smallest score on the mid-top. This was an obvious and intuitive foul in the nine-ball game!
"Foof, free ball." A small regret flashed across Castina's face. If she was asked to play the ball just now, she would definitely jump the ball reasonably and minimize the risk. After all, Balang Davis is just a rugby player. A ball with a small number one ball like billiards really doesn't have that high level of judgment.
Looking at the three remaining balls on the table, No. 7, No. 8 and No. 9, Balang Davis couldn't help but shake his head. Chu Yan was now a free ball. As long as he could successfully hit No. 7 into the corner bag in the lower left corner, then No. 8 and No. 9 would not be surprised. This game seemed a bit dangerous.
"Free ball? Just put the cue ball at will?" Chu Yan held the cue ball, then asked Castina with a humble look on his face. Before Castina could answer, he had already placed the cue ball behind the No. 7 ball, aiming at the waist bag on the left.
Chu Yanjiao's posture is very beautiful, but the club is constantly stretching and shrinking, and it has not been shot for a long time, which makes Barron Davis's face suddenly rise again. If Chu Yan's skills are poor, then the outcome of this game will be unpredictable.
"Bang!!!" Just when Castina was waiting a little impatiently, Chu Yan's club finally hit the cue ball. However, looking at the place where the cue ball collided, Castina shook her head with regret, because that shot was definitely Chu Yan's slide rod. With such a hit, the possibility of scoring a goal is very small. Even if she entered, she was still confused!
Looking at Chu Yan, it seemed that he was a little slid. The happiest person was Balang Davis. The black brother had a particularly bright smile on his face. He stood in front of Chu Yan and patted his u-shoulder on his shoulder. "My man, don't be nervous, it's just a hundred thousand dollars, it's a little bit."
"It's purely an accident, an accident." Although Chu Yan's smile looked a little awkward, Mo Xiyao saw a touch of cunning from Chu Yan's eyes. "This guy is putting a trap on someone again!"
The white cue ball instantly rotated and rushed out at high speed, swept the No. 7 ball directly into the corner of the waist bag. The No. 7 ball bounced out stubbornly. Not entering was necessary, but what happened next was a bit unexpected. The cue ball, which seemed to have a slider, actually drew an arc towards the No. 9 ball that had been parked in front of the corner bag door!
"Bang!" In everyone's stunned, the cue ball was fixed, and the ninth ball fell into the bag!
"Uh?" This scene made everyone a little stunned, especially Balang Davis. His previous pride was frozen instantly. Even Castina couldn't help but smile and shook her head, expressing her admiration for Chu Yan's luck.
"Ahem, thank you, thank you for your 100,000 US dollars, man!" The No. 9 ball was effectively put into the bag. In this game, the victory belonged to Chu Yan!
Chapter completed!
