Heads Up Hollywood

In a place like Hollywood, at night, there is a school of singing and dancing, full of flowers and riches.

There are many ways to play.

Private poker games are one of them.

It was Dunn's first time participating.

He is not very interested in playing cards, mainly seeing and seeing scenes.

To be on the safe side, he also consulted the company's legal counsel.

In California, it is illegal to open a casino.

However, it is legal to organize a private poker game. The prerequisite is that the organizer cannot take a cut of the poker game, and can only charge tips.

Only bets are drawn.

It can be seen from this that private poker games are a real gray industry.

How can it be clear whether the money earned by the organizer is a commission or a tip?

It's like a man giving money to a woman. Is it a red envelope for falling in love, or a reward for helping a transaction? After all, it is actually the same thing.

It is conceivable that the private poker industry is full of opportunities and dangers.

"What did you say? The organizer of the game...is a 26-year-old girl? So bold?"

On the way there, Tang En sat in his special car, staring at Leonardo with wide eyes, very shocked.

Leonardo smiled and said, "It must be courageous. She used to be a professional athlete, and it was a sport with a high risk factor."

"Professional athletes?"

"She is a skier and was ranked third in the world. During the trials of the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, she accidentally fell down. She seemed to have broken several spines and then retired. Originally, her plan was to recover from her injuries. Going to college to study law. To pay her tuition, she came to Los Angeles and became a barmaid."

Tang En's complexion changed slightly, as if he had thought of something.

Leonardo seemed to know this woman very well, and he talked endlessly: "Later, she came into contact with a private poker game and became a waiter of the poker game. I also met stars like Tobey Maguire, so I simply borrowed With his contacts, she came out to do it alone, opened her own high-level private poker game, and became a famous poker queen in Los Angeles."

Tang En blinked, "And then?"

Leonardo said: "You must know Tobey Maguire, right? Yes, he has acted in your movie. He is a frequent visitor to private poker games, and he is very enthusiastic. I have joined them since last year, often Play cards with them."

In his previous life, Tang En had heard that Leonardo had a good relationship with Tobey Maguire.

So much so that Tobey Maguire finished filming the "Spider-Man" trilogy, the role was finalized, and when his career was at a low point, it was Leonardo who gave him a hand and invited him to cooperate in the filming of "The Great Gatsby".

It turned out that he was a gambler in the poker game!

In fact, Tang En knew very little about private poker games.

Never participated.

However, after hearing so much from Leonardo, Tang En's mind flashed, and he quickly thought of something.

Young girls...retired athletes...private poker games...poker queens...

Everything pointed to a movie Tang En had seen in his previous life - "Jasmine's Game"!

Tang En took a deep breath and asked, "Leon, what's the name of the person you're talking about?"

"Jasmine, Jasmine Bloom." Leonardo glanced at him, and smiled as if realizing something, "She is also very famous in Hollywood, many people in the circle know her, you I've heard it's normal."

Tang En, on the other hand, took a deep breath, and his eyes revealed a bit of surprise.

It turned out to be her!

This Jasmine Bloom is definitely a remarkable woman!

The legend of the story is really enough to make a movie.

First, she opened a poker game in Los Angeles. Later, because of a falling out with Tobey Maguire, she lost the connections and support of her biggest client, so she could only leave Los Angeles and move to Manhattan, New York.

As a result, it became popular on Wall Street again!

However, places like Wall Street are much more dangerous than Hollywood.

Soon encounters gang members that almost cost her life...

In fact, these were not the focus of Tang En's attention.

What he likes is her quality!

Opening this kind of private poker game, there are not many customers who are pure gamblers, and they are mainly wealthy players for entertainment and entertainment.

Therefore, the biggest element of a private poker game is that the organizer must keep the client's secrets!

After all, this is a gray industry that walks on the edge of the law.

For celebrities, once the news is leaked, it will have a great adverse effect.

At this point, Molly Bloom does a very good job.

After she was arrested by 17 heavily armed FBI agents because she was suspected of gathering crowds to gamble, the lawyers and the prosecutor's office suggested that she be a tainted witness to reduce her guilt.

However, Molly Bloom, who declined to be named, pleaded guilty to illegally operating a high-stakes poker game.

You know, because of the huge amount involved and her refusal to cooperate, once convicted, her maximum sentence may reach 100 years!

Even under the premise of being in prison for a lifetime, she did not violate the spirit of the contract, and she did not even confess to the bastard Tobey Maguire who drove her out of Hollywood.

She declined to reveal anyone's name.

Fortunately, due to insufficient evidence, she saw the light of day again.

For Tang En, she would rather go to jail than disclose customer information, this is the biggest shining point of her humanity!

Now Tang En urgently needs a life assistant.

But no suitable candidate has been found.

Jasmine Bloom, fits perfectly!

"Why are you so excited?"

Leonardo looked at Tang En strangely.

"You don't understand!" Tang En waved his hands, "By the way, who is playing the game tonight?"

Leonardo said: "Should there be Ben Affleck? Tobey Maguire will also go, and he is indispensable every time. It is said that last year he made at least 12 million US dollars from the poker game!"

"$12 million... pay taxes?"

"ah?"

Leonardo was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Tang En with the eyes of an idiot.

This is a gray industry, all cash transactions, pay a fart tax!

Tang En said sternly: "If you don't pay taxes, this will involve very serious legal issues. Once the organizers leak the news, the tax department will definitely come to you."

Leonardo smiled and said: "Don't worry, Tobey Maguire has the bottom line! This game is nominally organized by Jasmine, but in fact, it mainly depends on his connections. Otherwise, how could Jasmine know so many rich men?" And the star? We don't trust Jasmine, but Toby."

"Totally the other way around."

"Um?"

"Do you think a Hollywood actor will be credible?" Tang En sneered disdainfully, then shook his head and laughed, "Compared to this, I am more interested in this Jasmine Bloom. The retired skier Athlete, come to open a private poker game? Interesting, really interesting!"

Leonardo had a strange expression on his face, "Tang En, I can advise you, don't make any wrong decisions. Jasmine...is very beautiful, but I have never seen her have any relationship with any client, even I heard that , she has been busy playing poker for the past two years, and has no time to date men at all."

"Don't worry, watch me!"

Tang En waved his hands with a happy expression.

Jasmine's game?

It seems that today is really the right time. (https:)
