In a place like Hollywood, in the evening, it is a school of singing and dancing, with flowers blooming like a brocade, and the money is drunk.
There are many ways to play.
Private poker is one of them.
Dunn is the first time to participate.
He is not very interested in playing cards, mainly to see the scene.
To be on the safe side, he also specifically consulted with the company's legal counsel.
It is illegal to open a casino/casino in California.
However, the organization of private poker games is a legal act. The premise is that the organizer cannot take a rake of the poker game, and can only charge a tip.
Only bets are drawn.
It can be seen from this that private poker is a real gray industry.
How can we tell whether the money the organizer makes is a commission or a tip?
Just like a man giving money to a woman, is it a red envelope for falling in love, or is it a reward for an aid transaction? After all, it's 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...a 26-year-old girl? How dare you?"
On the way there, Dunn sat in his special car and looked at Leonardo with wide eyes, very shocked.
Leonardo smiled and said, "You must be very courageous. She used to be a professional athlete, and it is a sport with a high risk factor."
"Professional athletes?"
"She is a skier and once ranked third in the world. During the trials for the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, she fell unexpectedly, as if she had broken several spines, and then retired. Originally, her plan was to recover from the injury. Went to college to study law. To earn 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 said incessantly: "Later, she came into contact with a private poker game and became a poker server. She also met a star like Tobey Maguire, and simply borrowed it. With his contacts, she came out to go it alone, opened her own high-level private poker game, and became a famous poker queen in Los Angeles."
Dunn blinked, "then what?"
Leonardo said: "Tobey Maguire, you must know, right? Yes, he has acted in your movie. He is a frequent visitor to private poker games, and he is very keen. Since last year, I have joined them, often Play cards with them."
In Dunn's previous life, he heard that Leonardo and Tobey Maguire had a good relationship.
So much so that when Tobey Maguire finished filming the "Spider-Man" trilogy, when the role was finalized and his career was at a low point, Leonardo pulled him and invited him to cooperate in the filming of "The Great Gatsby".
It turned out that it was a poker player!
In fact, Dunn knows very little about private poker games.
Never attended.
However, after listening to Leonardo say so much, Dunn's brain flashed and he thought of something very quickly.
Young girls...retired athletes...private games...poker queen...
Everything pointed to a movie Dunn had seen in his previous life - "Jasmine's Game of Cards"!
Dunn took a deep breath and asked, "Leon, what's the name of this person you're talking about?"
"Jasmine, Jasmine Bloom." Leonardo glanced at him, and smiled if he realized something, "She is also very famous in Hollywood, many people in the circle know her, you I've heard it, and it's normal."
Tang En took a deep breath, and there was a bit of surprise in his eyes.
It was really her!
This Jasmine Bloom is definitely an amazing woman!
The legend of the story is really enough to make a movie.
First, she opened a poker game in Los Angeles. Later, after falling out with Tobey Maguire and losing the contacts and support of her biggest client, she could only leave Los Angeles and move to Manhattan, New York.
As a result, it became popular on Wall Street again!
However, a place like Wall Street is much more dangerous than Hollywood.
Soon encounters gang members and almost kills her...
In fact, these are not the focus of Dunn's attention.
What he saw was her quality!
To open this kind of private game, there are not many customers of pure gamblers, mainly rich players for entertainment and entertainment.
Therefore, the biggest element of the private poker game is that the organizer must keep the client secret!
After all, this is a gray industry that is on the edge of the law.
For celebrities, once the news is leaked, there will be a lot of ill effects.
In this one, Jasmine Bloom does a very good job.
After she was arrested by 17 heavily-armed FBI agents for being suspected of gathering a crowd to gamble/gambling, the lawyers and the procuratorate suggested that she be a tainted witness to reduce her guilt.
However, Molly Bloom, who declined to be named, pleaded guilty to illegally opening a high-stakes game of poker.
You know, because of the huge amount of money involved and her refusal to cooperate, once she is convicted, her maximum sentence may reach 100 years!
Even under the premise of being imprisoned for a lifetime, she did not violate the spirit of the contract, even the **** Tobey Maguire who drove her out of Hollywood in the first place, she did not confess.
She declined to name anyone.
Fortunately, because of insufficient evidence, she saw the light of day again.
For Dunn, she would rather go to jail than disclose customer information, this is the biggest shining point of her humanity!
Now Dunn urgently needs a life assistant.
But never found a suitable candidate.
Jasmine Bloom, it fits!
"Why are you so excited?"
Leonardo looked at Dunn strangely You don't understand! Tang En waved his hand, "By the way, who is there in tonight's poker game? "
Leonardo said: "There should be Ben Affleck? Tobey Maguire will also go, and he is indispensable every time. It is said that he earned at least $12 million from the game last year!"
"$12 million... tax?"
"what?"
Leonardo was stunned for a moment, and looked at Dunn with the eyes of an idiot.
This is a gray industry, it's all cash transactions, pay tax!
Tang En said sternly: "If you don't pay taxes, it will involve serious legal issues. Once the organizer leaks the news, the tax department will definitely come to you."
Leonardo said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is Toby Maguire! In name, this card game is the Jasmine organization, but in fact, it mainly relies on his personal connections. Otherwise, how could Jasmine know so many rich people? And stars? We don't believe in Molly, we believe in Toby."
"Completely the opposite."
"Um?"
"Do you think a Hollywood actor has credibility?" Dunn sneered disdainfully, then shook his head and laughed, "In contrast, I am more interested in this Molly Bloom. Retired skiers Athletes, come for a private game? Fun, really fun!"
Leonardo's face was a little weird, "Dawn, I advise you, don't make bad ideas. Jasmine... She's very beautiful, but I've never seen her interact with any client, and I even heard that , She has been busy playing cards for the past two years and has no time to date a man."
"Don't worry, look at me!"
Dunn waved his hand with a happy expression.
Jasmine's game?
It seems that today is really the right time. (https:)
