Chapter 931: The Marionette
The dealer has a headset in one ear and is ready to accept instructions from the monitoring room and the higher-level management. The dealer in front of you is not in a position to communicate with the lobby manager or anyone else in front of the players, so he can only be notified by gestures, but there is no problem in accepting instructions.
The dealer at Xiao Yao's table not only knew that the new woman was a gambling girl in the casino, but also obviously knew the goals and tasks of the gambling girl.
Since he knew that the new woman was a gambling girl in the casino, the dealer naturally knew that she didn't understand, so without waiting for Paula to place a bet, the dealer raised his hand and touched the card box that was dealt.
"Wait!" Xiao Yao raised his hand to stop the dealer and said, "There are still people who haven't bet!"
"Huh?" the dealer looked at Xiao Yao strangely.
"Aren't you betting?" Xiao Yao turned his head and smiled at Paula.
"Man, do you think she has chips?" Ralph reminded from the side.
Paula has no handbag in her hand, no pockets on her clothes, and the countertop in front of her is empty, so she looks like she has no chips.
Ralph apparently saw that the beauty was a gambling girl, but did not say it directly. Because he heard that this Asian young man told this beautiful woman that it was the first time to come to the casino, and guessed that this Asian young man may not know about the gambling girl, and he wants to see how this Asian young man will behave.
And Xiao Yao's next performance really surprised Ralph.
"I don't have any chips!" Paula clapped her hands, pointed to the table in front of her, and smiled at Xiao Yao, "I see you playing, can I cheer you on?"
"That's so boring!" Xiao Yao smiled, "I'll lend it to you!"
"What?" Paula and Ralph were surprised, and even the dealer withdrew his urge to exit and looked at Xiao Yao in surprise.
"Really?" Paula asked with a smile, "What if I lose?
"Of course it's true!" Xiao Yao picked up a stack of chips from in front of him and handed it to Paula, "You don't have to pay it back if you lose!"
"Are you sure?" asked Paula in disbelief instead of reaching for it.
"But, I have the conditions!" Xiao Yao's hand stopped in the middle of the process.
"Spend the night with him if you lose!" Ralph laughed beside him.
"Hey, who's not a gentleman now?" Xiao Yao looked back at Ralph.
"How is this not a gentleman?" Ralph laughed, "if both parties want!"
"Here's 50,000 chips!" Xiao Yao ignored Ralph and turned back to look at Paula, "First of all, if you lose, you don't have to pay back the lost part, just give me back the rest, but if you win, in addition to paying me back 50,000, the winning part will be divided into half of me." ”
"Wow~" Ralph exclaimed.
It's not what Ralph thinks, but it's still a no-brainer for Paula.
"And second?" Paula asked, instead of rushing to make a statement. She felt that Xiao Yao said first, there should be second.
"Secondly, I don't know you, so these chips can only be played at this table. Xiao Yao said, "I don't want to imprison your freedom, if you don't want to play at this table, then settle it immediately, according to what I said before, if you lose, you just need to return the rest to me, if you win, give me the principal plus half of your win, and you can leave." If I want to leave this table, I will settle it immediately!"
"Good deal!" Ralph nodded.
"Anything else?" asked Paula.
"In the end, I want you to listen to me!" Xiao Yao said, "How much to bet, whether to play these cards, I will tell you how to do it, I hope you do what I say!"
"Isn't that your marionette?" Ralph had some opinion on the one, "so what's the point?"
Xiao Yao really wants Paula to be his marionette.
When Paula sat down next to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao turned his head to look at her for the first time, and guessed that this young and beautiful girl might be a gambling girl in the casino. Because long before Ralph opened his mouth to remind, Xiao Yao noticed that this girl had no chips.
Although the waiter at the time of entering the door did not say it explicitly, Xiao Yao knew that the gambling girl in the casino was used to stimulate the emotions of gamblers and make them bet wildly. When the girl said that Xiao Yao should increase the amount of bets, Xiao Yao was basically sure.
Xiao Yao increased the amount of bets according to Paula, not because he was stimulated by this beauty, but because when Paula came, Xiao Yao just finished the work of assisting the card counter in the early stage, and had a certain understanding of the trend of the cards behind, and was ready to transfer to the role of the big player in the card counting group. At this time, a gambling girl came over, and Xiao Yao said a few words to her, which happened to have a reason to make others look excellent and increase the amount of bets.
So why did Xiao Yao lend Paula the gambling girl's chips? That's because Xiao Yao wanted to play the two roles of auxiliary card counter and big player at the same time.
In the card counting group, although the auxiliary card counter is for the big players, but after the big players come on the field, the auxiliary card counter will not leave immediately, but will stay at the table. The assistant card counter is also a card counter, and can also calculate the trend of the following cards. Although the algorithm of the auxiliary card counter is a little different from that of the main big player, and the probability of winning is not as high as that of the big player's algorithm, it is still higher than the average person. The assistant card counter stays at the table and places some small bets, which can win more or less.
Xiao Yao can perform the calculation of two algorithms at the same time, but he only has one person, and he can't play two doors by himself, so someone needs to help him. Card counting is to guide players how to bet and whether to ask for cards, that is to say, Xiao Yao not only needs someone to help him open one more bet, but even the amount of bets and whether they have to listen to him, it is indeed to find a marionette.
Xiao Yao can't say that he can count cards and guarantee that he will win. Ordinary gamblers are here to play, to find excitement and fun, and they are definitely not willing to be his marionettes, so Xiao Yao hit the idea to the gambling girl next to him. The gambling girl can gamble at the table, and she has no chips, relatively speaking, it is a possible option to become a marionette.
Xiao Yao wanted to be a big player and an auxiliary card counter at the same time, for two reasons. On the one hand, I want to challenge myself, and on the other hand, because I have to win more by controlling two than by playing one.
When it comes to winning more, Xiao Yao can certainly place a bigger bet on his own door. However, card counting is the probability of playing, not every hand can win, and the amount of bets is also particular. Xiao Yao's capital is thicker than Yan Ke's card counting group, and the bet amount is larger than when they play, but they have to follow certain rules. Xiao Yao changed 200,000 chips when he entered the door, and today's goal is to use these 200,000 to play, he doesn't want to change the chips again after losing halfway. Playing two hands, there will be wins and losses in a single hand, and the risk is less than if you doubled down on one hand.
"Half of the win is yours, and it's exciting to feel the same. Xiao Yao didn't look back, still looking at Paula and said, "Lost, it's not your money, it's not your fault, there is no psychological burden!
"Good reason!" Ralph nodded and smiled.
"Yes, I agree!" Paula thought for a moment, nodded in agreement,
Gambling girls rarely participate in gambling, because they often go to the casino, they know that in the casino, they basically lose more and win less, and she doesn't want to lose money to the casino. In fact, the casino does not stipulate that the gambling girls themselves cannot participate in the gambling, on the contrary, the casino still welcomes non-technical employees to play in the casino. The task given to Paula by the hall manager is to let Xiao Yao bet heavily, and Paula bets with Xiao Yao's money, in a sense, it can be regarded as further increasing the amount of Xiao Yao's bets, so Paula can fully agree.
"Okay!" Xiao Yao put 50,000 chips in front of Paula, "The first one, one thousand!"
Paula picked up two 500 chips and placed them in the betting area in front of her.
The dealer sees that all the players at the table have placed their bets and begins to deal the cards.
The first two cards of this handful are issued, Xiao Yao is a seven and an eight, which is not a very good point in itself, considering that the dealer, that is, the dealer in front of a card is a nine, it is not a very good point. On the contrary, Paula's card was good, and he actually got a pair of tens.
"Stop!" The dealer asked the players at the table one by one, and when it was Xiao Yao's turn, Xiao Yao turned his head to look at Paula's cards, and directly waved his hand to call the cards.
"You're only fifteen!" Paula reminded.
"Really?" Xiao Yao first looked at the cards in front of him in surprise, and then said indifferently, "Forget it, I said no, and I can't change it!"
"Did I say I can't change it?" The dealer scolded in his heart, but Xiao Yao didn't want cards, which was more in line with his mind, so he moved directly to the next one and asked Paula, "Right ten, do you want to split cards?"
According to the 21-point rule, if the player is dealt two cards of the same rank, he can split. The so-called splitting is that one becomes two, but there is no extra one, and the player needs to make up the same amount of chips. Of course, players can also choose not to split and continue to play as follows, and the initiative is in the hands of the player.
Paula is a pair of tens, which is twenty points. The dealer can only win her if he gets blackjack, and if he doesn't split, the winning side is very large. If Paula played by herself, she would probably choose not to split, but she remembered Xiao Yao's request just now, did not answer, and turned her head to look at Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao was very satisfied that Paula didn't answer directly, and nodded, "Points!"
"Are you sure?" asked Paula.
"Sure!" Xiao Yao turned his head to look at the dealer and said with a smile, "No need to confirm, otherwise I'm afraid the dealer won't let us play like this!"
"Points!" Paula nodded.
According to the rules of the casino, players are not allowed to touch the playing cards. The dealer separates the two overlapping cards in front of Paula, and Paula takes out another 1,000 chips and places them behind the other card.
After splitting, the dealer deals Paula two more cards face-up, one on top of two tens. The dealer deals the cards, and what comes out is a seven and a six.
"Stop, it's both!" Xiao Yao said.
"Stop!" Paula repeated with a wave of her hand above the card, "both." ”
Paula was the last player, and the dealer turned over his face down card and came out with a five. Nine plus five, the dealer is fourteen points, the dealer wants a card, and the result is a J. J is ten points, the dealer is twenty-four points, burst, and the player who does not explode is fully compensated!
"Yay!" Paula shouted excitedly, raising her hands.
"Look, even if you listen to someone else, you will be very happy if you win!" Xiao Yao looked at the excited Paula and said.
"Thank you!" Paula grabbed Xiao Yao's arm and leaned over to Xiao Yao.
"Wait!" Xiao Yao stepped back, pointing to the countertop in front of Paula and asked, "Do you want to continue?"
"What?" said Paula in a strange voice, "why not?"
"Because I can't guarantee that you will win in the end!" Xiao Yao said, "You won two thousand this one, and according to our agreement, you can get one thousand." If you don't play now, you can give me back 51,000 chips and leave with your 1,000 chips. But if you keep playing, the wins you have now may go out. I'm going to look at the total amount of chips in front of you, and you can't take the 1,000 you win and save it away. ”
"I see!" Paula nodded.
Xiao Yao's meaning is very clear, that is, if she goes now, a thousand yuan will be steadily in her pocket, if she continues, she may gain more, or she may not get anything.
"Then what is your choice?" Xiao Yao asked.
"I believe in you!" Paula hesitated for a moment and said to Xiao Yao, "Go on, I will play with you until you don't want to play!"
"Okay!" Xiao Yao smiled, "Next, two thousand!"
Paula immediately took out two thousand chips and put them in the betting area in front of her.
After all, Xiao Yao was in contact with this gambling girl for the first time, and he didn't even know the other party's name, he lacked understanding of her, and his confidence in controlling her was not so strong. Xiao Yao wasn't too worried that the gambling girl would run away with her 50,000 chips, mainly because she was worried that Paula wouldn't follow her instructions.
According to the rules of the casino, the dealer only listens to the instructions of the bettor and does not listen to anyone else. Even if the gambler and the dealer next to him heard Xiao Yao and Paula discuss, the dealer could ignore it completely. There is no guarantee that every handful can be won, in case of losing a few later, Paula does not listen to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao comes in the opposite direction, Xiao Yao has a headache, so he deliberately reminds Paula that he can leave early.
This is actually a psychological hint for Xiao Yao to further emphasize that Paula obeys her instructions. If Paula chooses not to leave at this time, most of the reason given to herself is to believe that Xiao Yao will win, so that the possibility of Paula not listening to Xiao Yao's instructions will be reduced.
Of course, this only makes Paula less likely to disobey Xiao Yao's instructions, and Xiao Yao still can't guarantee it 100%. But fortunately, Xiao Yao's luck is good, and his and Paula's character seems to be very good.
Whether the next few games were won or lost, and even when there were three consecutive losses, Paula did not waver, and all of them played according to Xiao Yao's instructions.
The essence of card counting is to improve the odds of winning. In other words, it cannot determine the win or loss of a particular hand, but only improves the odds of winning overall. This means that the longer the time and the more times you bet, the more obvious the effect will be.
After Xiao Yao and Paula played for a while, the effect of card counting was slowly reflected. The chips in front of the two slowly increased, significantly exceeding the original amount.
Listening to Xiao Yao's words and winning money, Paula is naturally unlikely to come without Xiao Yao's instructions, and happily act as Xiao Yao's marionette on the gambling table.
