There are two important foundations for performing magic, one is by props and the other is by technique. Comparatively speaking, close-up magic is more of a maneuver. Xiao Yao is interested in magic, especially close-up magic, and most importantly, in the way of magic.

Xiao Yao in his previous life also liked magic, especially close-up magic, and the main purpose at that time was to show off in front of girls after learning it and attract girls. Xiao Yao in this life doesn't need to rely on magic to attract girls, he learns magic purely to think of multiple skills, and by the way, exercise the flexibility of his fingers.

Xiao Yao knows many musical instruments, whether it is a guitar, a piano keyboard, a hand disc, or even an ocarina saxophone and other instruments, which require considerable dexterity of fingers. Xiao Yao can't carry a musical instrument everywhere he goes, and he can't practice a musical instrument often, and sometimes he will practice some magic tricks to exercise and maintain the flexibility of his fingers.

At present, Xiao Yaohui also has several magic techniques, but no one will have too many magic tricks. Xiao Yao didn't specifically look for a professional magician to learn from him, but if he had the opportunity to meet him, he would want to learn. After all, the more magic tricks you know, the more you can play when practicing, and the less likely you are to feel bored and bored.

Xiao Yao saw a magic show on the streets of Las Vegas, pondering the principles, tricks and techniques of magic, trying to crack the secret and then make it his own.

Xiao Yao has a good brain and good observation. However, Xiao Yao's brain is most prominently manifested in memory and mental arithmetic ability, and no matter how good his observation skills are, some doorways cannot be seen. There are some magic tricks, Xiao Yao has been exposed to similar ones, and he can understand the principle, and some magic tricks, Xiao Yao is completely confused.

For those magic tricks that can't see the way at all, Xiao Yao will stand by and watch until the magician's performance is over and there is no one around. At this time, Xiao Yao would go over to discuss with the magician, and pay the other party to tell him the secret of the magic trick he had just performed.

Xiao Yao knew that magicians generally wouldn't casually reveal their magic secrets to others, let alone strangers they met on the road without knowing them at all.

But Xiao Yao didn't care about being rejected. He doesn't rely on this to eat, it's purely for interest, and now he's more idle, anyway, it's just a try, if it doesn't work, forget it. It is said that Xiao Yao did not learn in vain, he took money out to let people teach, and the income of street artists is limited, what if someone agrees to the face of the money? This road that Xiao Yao walked on is the main road with a lot of tourists, the public security is very good, and he is not afraid of money and wealth.

Maybe it's because Xiao Yao's dress and words and deeds don't look like magicians, not like peers grabbing jobs, maybe it's because Xiao Yao took out a stack of banknotes that has a great impact on street performers, you must know that Xiao Yao won money in the casino in the morning, and when he changed chips, all the thousands of dollars in the mantissa were replaced with cash and put on his body, and there were a lot of random stacks taken out at this time. In addition, Xiao Yao's requirements are not high, he doesn't need to teach and learn, as long as he explains the know-how, he can take the money and leave after the live demonstration. As a result, there was really a magician who saw the money and agreed to Xiao Yao, and after teaching Xiao Yao once, he took the money and left.

Xiao Yao's memory is not to be said, and he will remember it when he is taught. It's not easy to practice standing on the street, and Xiao Yao is not busy practicing, so he will continue to wander along the street to find the next target.

I walked outside for an afternoon, and it wasn't until dinner time that Xiao Yao casually found a more distinctive restaurant and went to dinner.

At night, Xiao Yao's activities were different again. Although Las Vegas never sleeps, and many streets are lit up at night with street performers, night is not the same as daytime, and it is not a smart move to casually dig out a lot of money at night, even on busy streets that seem to be safe.

Xiao Yao told Paula that she was interested in performing in Las Vegas, and that was the truth. In the evening, his arrangement was indeed to go to the show.

Las Vegas is a comprehensive tourist city centered on the gambling industry, and many hotels are very distinctive. Some hotels have casinos, some have theaters and other performance venues, and some hotels have both casinos and theaters. On the other hand, there are many well-known casinos and theaters in Las Vegas that do not exist in their own right, but are located in hotels.

There is a theater in the Caesars Palace Hotel where Xiao Yao lives, but after checking the performance information of various theaters in Lasville's house through the Internet, Xiao Yao is not interested in tonight's program in the Caesars Palace performance venue, and chooses to go to the theater of another hotel to watch a musical performance.

After watching the performance, Xiao Yao returned to the Caesars Palace hotel room where he stayed. At this time, it was not too late, but Xiao Yao did not go out again, and rested after trying a few magic tricks he learned in the afternoon.

The next morning, Xiao Yao got up early. After washing, I went to the hotel gym to exercise early, had breakfast, and then went back to the room to take a shower and change clothes, and then Xiao Yao went out.

Today, Xiao Yao's main task is still to go to the casino, but Xiao Yao does not plan to continue to play in the casino of the Caesars Palace Hotel where he lives, but is ready to change the casino.

Xiao Yao won more than 200,000 yuan in the casino of Caesars Palace yesterday. Although this number does not necessarily attract the attention of the casino, Xiao Yao hopes that the later the casino notices him, the better, and of course tries to avoid appearing in the same casino consecutively.

The casino that Xiao Yao went to today is called Winnie's Casino, which is not in a certain hotel, but a separate casino. This casino is also a regular casino, and its reputation in Las Vegas is slightly worse than that of Caesars Palace, which relies on hotels, but because it is a separate specialized casino, it is larger than Caesars Palace Casino.

Although the Winney Casino is larger than Caesar's Palace, the gambling methods and facilities in it are similar, that is, the number of gambling tables and slot machines is a little more. Xiao Yao had already listened to the waiter at Caesars Palace Casino explain the various facilities and gameplay in the casino yesterday, and after entering Winnie Casino today, he didn't need to find a waiter to introduce him, he went to the chip exchange office to change his chips and started.

In Vinny's Casino, Xiao Yao's action steps were the same as yesterday in Caesars Palace Casino, first going to roulette, dice, slot machines and other various tables or machines to play around, and then sat down at a 21 o'clock table.

There are also gambling girls in the Winnie Casino. Since Xiao Yao's strategy was the same as yesterday, the initial stage was to understand and judge the hand position, and the amount of bets was very small relative to the amount of chips he put on the table, and it didn't take long for a young, beautiful, and sexy-dressed girl to sit next to him.

Yesterday, borrowing Paula's chips, pulling Paula to the table together was Xiao Yao's whim, the purpose was to test his ability to play two roles at the same time and count two cards. Xiao Yao had already done this test yesterday and proved that he had this ability, and there was no need to do it every day.

It is a relatively rare thing to borrow chips to play with gambling girls in the casino, and this kind of thing cannot be done often, otherwise it is easy to be discussed and spread, and then attract the attention of the casino. Another point is that the algorithm of the auxiliary card counter is not as good as that of the big player, and the probability of winning is not as high as that of the big player, which means that the income is not as high as that of the big player.

Therefore, although Xiao Yao met the gambling girl and increased the amount of bets under the "stimulation" of the gambling girl, he did not borrow chips to the gambling girl as he did yesterday and pull the gambling girl to the table together.

There are no clocks in Vinny's Casino, but Xiao Yao has his own feelings and control, and he will not be so addicted to forgetting the time. When it was lunchtime, when it was time to eat, Xiao Yao knew. There is also free food in this casino, but Xiao Yao will not indulge in eating a free lunch at the casino. When it was almost lunchtime, Xiao Yao collected the chips, left the casino, and found a restaurant to have a good meal.

However, unlike yesterday, when Xiao Yao left the casino at noon, he did not exchange the chips in his hand.

Today, Xiao Yao didn't pull the gambling girl to the table, he didn't need to take care of others, he only needed to count the cards of his big player. Compared with yesterday, Xiao Yao's pressure to count cards today is much smaller.

The mental energy consumption spent on card counting is less, and Xiao Yao can hold on for a long time. Xiao Yao had already walked around the streets of Las Vegas yesterday, and there was no place or play plan that he had to go, so Xiao Yao did not exchange the chips in his hand when he left at noon, and after lunch, he returned to Winney Casino and continued to fight at the 21 o'clock table. It wasn't almost dinner time that Xiao Yao finished, exchanged the chips, and really left the casino.

Yesterday in Caesars Palace Casino, Xiao Yao's principal was 200,000, and after playing for a morning, he won more than 200,000 yuan, and he had more than 400,000 yuan in his hand. Today at Winny Casino, Xiao Yao almost made all of yesterday's principal and profits into the principal and exchanged 400,000 integer chips. With more chips, the amount of Xiao Yao's bet will naturally increase.

No matter what stage it is, Xiao Yao's bet amount today is almost double that of yesterday, and the time spent playing in the casino is almost twice that of yesterday, theoretically speaking, Xiao Yao's profit should be about four times that of yesterday.

However, this is only theoretical.

Card counting is to improve the overall odds, not to guarantee that each hand will win or how many hands will be won, which is also affected by some luck aspects. What's more, Xiao Yao played two games by himself yesterday, and the chips were divided into 50,000 and 150,000, one to assist one player, which is not the same as playing only one today.

However, Xiao Yao's actual record today happens to be relatively close to this theory. When Xiao Yao entered the game, it was 400,000 yuan, and when he left, the total amount of chips in his hand was more than 1.35 million. After calculation, Xiao Yao won more than 900,000 today, which is exactly four times more than 240,000 yesterday.

Although Xiao Yao's principal is 400,000 yuan, and the amount of bets is relatively high, he won more than 900,000 yuan in the casino in one day, close to 1 million, and this figure is still relatively prominent.

When he finally changed chips at the chip exchange office before leaving the casino, Xiao Yao suddenly felt a little worried.

No matter how high Xiao Yao's bet amount is, it is impossible to bet hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands, which is close to one million is not won by Xiao Yao in a few simple handfuls, but slowly accumulated. Not to mention that Xiao Yao took so many chips to the chip exchange office to change chips when he finally left, which was very eye-catching, but in the afternoon, some ordinary gamblers were attracted by the large number of chips piled up in front of Xiao Yao, and then watched by Xiao Yao's gambling table.

An ordinary gambler is surrounded by other gamblers, and it is easy to attract the attention of the casino manager, coupled with the pile of more than a million chips in front of him, Xiao Yao is almost certain that the manager in the casino monitoring room must be looking at him through the monitoring screen.

According to the rules of the casino, a player with a 21 cannot touch a card. The cards dealt by the dealer to the player are all open cards, even if the player encounters a pair of the same number of points, the player asks for a split, and the dealer helps to separate the two cards, and the player can only put the increased chips behind another card, and cannot touch the cards. Since you can't touch the cards, and the cards in the casino are only used once, it is almost possible to cheat by changing cards and marking cards. The only thing the casino has to worry about is probably the player's card count.

Before Xiao Yao came to Las Vegas, he had a detailed understanding of their card counting team's experience in Las Vegas casinos and their operation methods with Yan Ke and others.

As a person whose memory and mental arithmetic ability are much higher than those of ordinary card counting team members, and at the same time an actor, Xiao Yao's performance at the card table is very different from them. For example, when Xiao Yao counts cards, his eyes, expressions and movements are completely different from those in the card counting team, and he can even turn his head to talk and chat with other gamblers and players in the card game.

In addition, Xiao Yao is not a teamworker, he has no teammates, and he doesn't need to do any actions to play code with his teammates, so there is no possibility of exposure for this reason.

Therefore, even if the management of the casino looked at him through the surveillance screen, Xiao Yao did not believe that the people in the casino would judge that he was counting cards through his performance in such a short period of time.

Judging from today's performance alone, Xiao Yao felt that there should not be much suspicion. Therefore, after other gamblers began to watch, Xiao Yao did not reduce the bet amount, nor did he deliberately lose, he felt that that would attract the attention of the casino management.

One million, after all, is a very conspicuous number. Even if the casino management doesn't suspect him of counting cards and doesn't blacklist him, it's likely that he's added to the list of things to watch. Xiao Yao did not regret his performance after being watched by gamblers, but he regretted the bet amount set today.

But thinking about it the other way, Xiao Yao came to Las Vegas this time with a goal and a time limit. If he wants to win a certain amount, he must bet a certain amount, and if the bet amount is high enough to reach a certain level, the profit will reach a certain level, and it seems impossible not to attract the attention of the casino. This is a paradox.

Xiao Yao felt that the only thing he could do now seemed to be to adjust the original plan, or to make his plan more specific and detailed.

"Wouldn't it be better if the million was won in two or three different casinos?" Xiao Yao, who left the casino and returned to the hotel, pondered on the way, "Should I run more casinos a day in the future?"
