Secrets of Gambling (2)

"Since you know how to count cards, why don't you use your card counting skills to win the casino?" asked Wuwei curiously.

"Haha...... In fact, card counting skills alone still can't compete with casinos, and the best strategy and stable psychological factors are also needed, the latter is the magic weapon to win. There is no trick to win in gambling, there is no casino and neither are gamblers, only the general trend of 'gambling for a long time must lose' and 'gamble for a long time must win'. What is hidden here is that the average gambler is different from a professional player. Ordinary gamblers enter the casino and only one result is 'gambling for a long time will lose'. Professional gamblers, like casinos, rely on 'gambling for a long time to win'. ”

"Robert, what do you say is the biggest difference between ordinary gamblers and professional gamblers? Why do you say that ordinary gamblers are bound to lose after a long period of gambling, while professional gamblers are bound to win after a long period of gambling?" Wu Wei showed a very strong interest in Robert's words, which was also a question he wanted to explore, he just wanted to be a professional gamer.

"This problem is not something that can be explained clearly in three or two sentences, first talk about the problem of ordinary gamblers, then professional players will naturally understand. 'Guessing' is always the most popular method in casinos, and it is also the most commonly used betting method for ordinary gamblers. When you see a few times out of the red, you think it's time to go out of the black, you think it's time to go out when you see a few times in a row, you should win if you lose a few times in a row, you see that the first few cards are small cards and you estimate that it's time to play a big card, etc., the phenomenon of 'guessing' is staged in the casino all the time. In fact, the phenomena of continuous red, banker and consecutive losses have nothing to do with the current wins and losses. Playing a few small cards in blackjack and baccarat and other gambling games is also an extremely complex relationship to affect the win or lose, by no means 'it's time to play a big card' as a simple thing, as we will see in the later analysis of the gambling game. Casinos never guess, and the vast majority of gamblers guess endlessly. When Robert said this, he asked Wuwei, "In the casino, which dealer do you see guessing what card is behind like a gambler? Will it be big or small? Banker or idle? Have you ever seen it?"

Wuwei shook his head, "No, really not." How I hadn't thought of this before. ”

Robert continued: "It's not just you who didn't think of it, but none of the other gamblers thought of it. In fact, people who love gambling are very smart and work hard, but the biggest misunderstanding of ordinary gamblers is that they think that they can use the record paper provided by the casino to record the number of the roulette wheel, and they can find the law of each roulette number from the number data, and use it to guide and predict which number or which area the ball will fall into. I thought that in the process of this interaction, I would constantly revise and improve my technology, and there would always be a day when I could win the casino. Ordinary gamblers due to the incorrect guiding ideology and research methods, the conclusion is naturally absurd, but they think that the loss is due to their own technical imprecision, so they are more diligent and hardworking, hoping to achieve their goal one day. In this way, you will unconsciously fall into a vicious circle of gambling and losing, and losing and gambling, which is an endless vicious circle. The casino has prepared roulette record paper and baccarat record paper for ordinary gamblers, not because of how good the casino is, it is misleading gamblers, allowing you to enter a strange circle, and those with strong self-control may gamble less from now on, or simply do not associate with the casino, and a few people may go crazy or even suffer from pathological gambling disorder. The root of this misconception lies in the unconditional equivalence of frequency and probability. ”

"You're right, we Chinese gamblers are particularly keen on analyzing guessing numbers, and this kind of person pretends to be a technical gambler. Needless to say, in the casino, that is, in the hut of fucai betting, every day there is a group of people staring at the number analysis that has appeared before, and often arguing with red faces, as if how authoritative they are. Not to mention playing baccarat, there are countless ways to play, such as what baccarat actual combat techniques, fast and slow play, yin and yang play, heaven and earth play, mixed element play, dynamic volley method, super battle method, etc., make me feel dazzled, let alone used. Wuwei said with deep feelings.

"To be honest, all of these methods are fine, as long as they are used, there is only one result in the end - losing even more. There is no one in the world who has defeated baccarat with these methods, or won money, even if he can win money for a while, he can win a lot of money, and then what awaits him is the only result of losing after a long gamble. Speaking of this, Robert's expression was a little gloomy, as if he was feeling sorry for the countless people who were addicted to various gambling skills.

"If it's really as you say, the end result of the average gambler is only one 'gamble for a long time and lose', then why are so many people still keen to gamble, and they are gambling like crazy?" asked Robert, puzzled.

"Haha...... This is probably also a question that many people want to know. Robert couldn't help but laugh when he heard Wuwei's question, "In a book called "The King of Gamblers", there is a classic dialogue, not long after Stanley Ho and Ye Han took over the operation of the Macau casino, the gambling king Stanley Ho saw that the casino's income had skyrocketed, and the gamblers' results in the casino were inseparable from a losing word, so he asked very worriedly: 'These gamblers always lose in the casino, what if they don't come to gamble, shouldn't the casino be closed?' Ye Han asked angrily and funny at the time: ' There are people dying every day in this world, how can you not see few people in this world?'
