Chapter 443 Playing slot machines
Xiao Peng and Ya Li put the chips into the slot machine, and the screen showed that there was a hundred dollars in the machine, and the two adjusted the bet amount and played slowly.
The Las Vegas chips all have chip passwords inside, but they are not a simple piece of plastic: there was once a fierce man who went directly to the Bellagio casino with a gun and snatched two million large denomination chips. But these chips can't be spent outside as money, and can only be exchanged for money at Bellagio Casino.
However, if you exchange money in Bellagio, because the chips have passwords, the robbers will be arrested directly if they come to repay the money, and the success rate of exchanging money is almost zero, and the robbers will take out the chips and resell them at a low price on the Internet, and they will be caught directly by the undercover police. What is even more surprising is that the robber's father is still a judge of the local courtγγγγγγ
The same goes for the reason why casinos use chips, as long as the robbery is not cash, then the casino will not lose money. Well, in fact, there is another purpose, when gamblers gamble with chips in their hands instead of cash, people are often not so cautious, and many people will take the chips home as souvenirs. This mass mentality of not treating chips as real money can make casinos very profitable.
Xiao Peng and the two didn't sit down for long to play, and a beautiful waitress came over and asked the two of them what they wanted to drink. At Las Vegas Casino, you can enjoy free unlimited drinks as long as you sit down to play.
This is another way to make money in Las Vegas casinos: driven by the atmosphere and alcohol, many people will have difficulty controlling the fact that the longer they play, the bigger they play, and the more money they win. It may have been planned to play for only an hour, but it turned out that the thing that kept playing all night has long been strange in the casino.
In the slot machine, it is just a free drink, and if it is at another gambling table, the male gambler may have come to talk to the woman who has already arrived. Alcohol and beautiful women, countless men with poor self-control willingly threw money in Las Vegasγγγγγγ
Don't think that Xiao Peng will have no one to talk to him if he is accompanied by Yali. This is Las Vegas, and it's normal for an Oriental man to be accompanied by several Western beauties around himγγγγγγ
After playing for an hour, Xiao Peng's $100 became food for the slot machine, but Alexandra was still very good, not only did she not lose all the $100 in her hand, but she also earned $66, which is an auspicious number.
Alexandra held the anti-lottery ticket of the slot machine and shook it in front of Xiao Peng, happy and happy. This is also the reason why many people like to play slot machines: because if you want to withdraw money while playing slot machines, you only need to put this anti-lottery ticket into the exchange device, and you can get cash, and you don't have to go to the chip exchange office to queue up!
"Honey, don't you see how good I am, I'm making money!" Alexandra said to Xiao Peng with an excited face.
Xiao Peng nodded: "That's right, look at me again, a hundred dollars is so wasted." β
Alexandra gave him a blank look: "Please, you've drunk more than ten glasses of whiskey this hour." Much cheaper than going to the bar. β
Xiao Peng shrugged: "There is no good wine here." It's just to quench my thirst, and I'm a little hungry, are you hungry? Let's have something to eat?"
"Okay, okay, I'm a little hungry too. I didn't feel it when I played just now, but when I stopped, I really felt hungry. You wait for me, I'll redeem the anti-lottery ticket first!" Alexandra nodded.
Speaking of the attitude of the service staff of the casino, it is really called enthusiasm, which is another feature of the casino, you will never see the waiter who speaks badly to you with a cold face here, and the attitude is called a stick.
After all, the main profit of their waiters here is to rely on tips, you have a bad service attitude, where is there a tip? And here, there are really zero complaints, which waiter has been complained, if it is really a waiter problem, it is directly driven home.
The waiters in the Las Vegas casinos are really high-income people, and their incomes here are higher than those of the middle class. No one wants to lose their job, does they?
Alexandra exchanged $166 from the machine and gave $6 to the waitress who directed her to use the machine. The waiter thanked them happily and took the two of them to the food court to eat delicious food.
Xiao Peng watched the waiter leave, and smacked his tongue: "Tsk, no wonder the service here is so good, look at these waiters, you can go to Hollywood to eat just by looking at them, it turns out that it is so easy to make money here, and tipping a few hundred dollars a day is the same as playing!"
Alexandra laughed, "They still charge less, and the dealers at the tables charge more." However, if they can't get these tips themselves, they have to share them with the account managers and supervisors of the casino. β
Xiao Peng was stunned: "Why do you have to share it with the managers?"
Alexandra explains, "Once in Las Vegas, the managers used their positions to ask for tips from the waiters because they saw that the waiters were earning more than them. The waiters were naturally unhappy and directly sued the managers, but who knew that it was the waiters who lost the lawsuit, which set a precedent for second-tier personnel in the Stars and Stripes country to collect tips. β
Xiao Peng didn't express an opinion after hearing this, but handed Alexandra a plate: "Come, try the fried fish steak here, it tastes good." β
Alexandra also handed Xiao Peng a drink: "Try the kiwi juice here, it tastes very delicious." β
The casino doesn't cut corners just because it's served for free. Both the raw materials and the craftsmanship are top-notch. Xiao Peng and the two of them can be regarded as having an open stomach and eating happily.
"What's next?" Xiao Peng asked Alexandra after eating and drinking.
Alexandra laughed, "Where else can I go? Of course I'm going to play something else." You can't say it's too late to just play slots. β
Xiao Peng nodded: "Okay, wait for me to withdraw some money." "In casinos, ATMs are everywhere. Xiao Peng raised $20,000 and handed $10,000 to Alexandra: "Let's each have $10,000, let's see who loses it first." β
Alexandra pouted: "Everyone wants to win more, why do you lose it before anyone else?"
Xiao Peng laughed: "Okay, let's go and win more money than anyone else." β
Alexandra took the chips: "What are we going to do next?"
Xiao Peng tilted his head and pointed to a gambling table next to him: "Why don't we go play roulette?" Next to it happened to be an American-roulette table.
"Yes, yes!" Alexandra nodded.
Roulette is a game of pure luck, almost no one can manipulate the odds, no matter how you place your bet, the odds of winning the bet are certain.
In the past, it was possible to cheat on the roulette wheel, such as using magnets, which later evolved into the use of electromagnets, where the dealer controlled the odds of winning according to the amount of money on the wheel, or by making hands and feet in the ball, which was equipped with a miniature motor to make it jump constantly. But after this matter was exposed, the impact on the casino was huge. There are so many casinos in Las Vegas nowadays, and the reputation of the casino is the most important thing. So naturally no one is cheating here anymore.
Roulette is also divided into European and American styles. American - Roulette uses a double zero wheel, and he maintains a probability of 35:1 for any given number, while European Roulette only has a zero digit. In contrast, American Roulette gives players a greater winning edge because it reduces the casino's edge by almost two percentage points. So in the big casinos in Las Vegas, in order to show that they are fair and impartial, they will use American roulette - roulette.
Xiao Peng and the two first exchanged chips with the casino dealer, and the dealer in the Las Vegas casino is definitely an enviable job. Just like Xiao Peng, who just exchanged chips for chips, he directly gave him a tip of $100. In Las Vegas, the average gambler will tip the dealer after leaving the table or winning, and the absolute income is considerable.
However, generally speaking, the customers who really tip generously are in the VIP room, and the maximum tip in the outside hall is ten dollars, and those who give a hundred casually like Xiao Peng are either local tyrants who have just come to play, or they are nouveau riche who win money. Xiao Peng obviously belongs to the former, which makes the dealer happy.
But it is not so easy to be a dealer in Las Vegas, especially a dealer in card gambling, and you must go to a special licensing school to become a dealer. The technique of dealing cards alone takes months to learn. When you go to a casino to find a job after graduation, you must fill out an online application form in advance and then go to the casino for an interview. After passing, you have to go to the police station to issue a certificate of no criminal record, and go to the designated hospital to check whether you have drug abuse and other vices before you can join the company.
All the dealers want to go to the big casinos to work, after all, the income difference between the big casinos and the small casinos is very large. Small casinos may only cost two or three thousand dollars a month, and large casinos may earn tens of thousands of dollars. But if you want to work as a dealer in a big casino, you generally need more than three years of work experience.
Don't underestimate the simple licensing skills of these dealers, the real awesome dealers are all with an annual salary of more than one million or even higher! The same is true in Huaxia! The real dealers' licensing skills are amazing, which can ensure that the casino makes a steady profit without losing money. Therefore, in the top casinos, there are top dealers.
Let's just say that the top dealers are actually thousands, and this is mostly male. If the women in the casino are good at calculating and acting, then the men in the casino are good at finding shortcuts, and the thousands are one of them, and most of the top dealers are men, and only a few women have entered the ranks.
(Lao Yang is really not talking nonsense when he says this, Lao Yang once knew a girl, who was a professional dealer.) She showed Lao Yang how to deal cards. Bee poker is used. This bee poker is a professional poker in the world's casinos, professional gambling uses it, compared with ordinary poker, it is wider, just to prevent gamblers from making thousands. And after she shuffled the cards, she dealt Lao Yang a 678 straight flush in front of Lao Yang, and she herself was a 10JQ straight flush. This is not the most magical, the most amazing thing is that after she finished dealing cards, she took out several cards from the sleeves of her shirt, the shirt is tied with cuffs, and the bee poker is already wide, Lao Yang still doesn't understand how she put the playing cards in the cuffs. Therefore, nine out of ten gambles are lost, and Lao Yang sincerely advises everyone to stay away from gambling. Lao Yang himself has a lot of bad habits, but he really never gambles, his friends play mahjong, and Lao Yang of Wumao doesn't play, and he doesn't buy lottery ticketsγγγγγγ Encourage you with youγγγγγγ οΌ
