0413 Gambling on the ship
Perhaps because of the relationship between going to the club together, Shi Xiaodong's attitude towards Tang Yan has obviously changed.
Tang Yan knew very well that this was because they were going to gamble on the yacht together on the weekend.
Moreover, Shi Xiaodong, as a civil servant who has just been promoted to the deputy department level, is definitely not financially adequate, plus this person is obviously good at gambling, the so-called long-term gambling has no winner, Shi Xiaodong may not worry about family life, and it is definitely no problem to play cards and mahjong at ordinary times, but if you enter the casino, that little money will definitely not be enough.
Tang Yan obviously showed that he was a rich man, and Shi Xiaodong had to think of borrowing money from him.
Especially the next day, when Shi Xiaodong came to the hotel to accompany Tang Yan to play around, Tang Yan used the excuse to mention the gambling boat, which successfully aroused Shi Xiaodong's interest.
"Tang Shao, you may not know, my grandfather used to be a dealer in a Macau casino, that is, Lao Lisboa, you should know this. He's not a dealer in the casino lobby, he's a dealer in the VIP room upstairs. Gambling skills are definitely much worse than those professional masters, but ordinary people are certainly not his opponents. I learned gambling from my grandfather when I was very young, not that I was boasting, I played cards with my classmates and friends since I was a child, and I never lost. However, playing cards with friends or classmates is inevitably a bit of a victory, so I usually control it, deliberately win two and lose two, and basically keep the overall situation not losing or winning. ”
Tang Yan pretended to be surprised: "It turns out that Shi Mi is actually a master of gambling?" Why don't you show me your hands? ”
Shi Xiaodong pretended to excuse himself, and after Tang Yan insisted a little, he agreed to Tang Yan's request.
Asked the housekeeping department to send a few decks of poker, Shi Xiaodong skillfully shuffled the cards, and said: "In fact, gambling is not so magical, unless it is deliberately out of a thousand, otherwise it mainly relies on memory and calculation, in the case of not a thousand, no one can guarantee a hundred battles, and it is just to increase the probability of winning." In any game, the number of decks in poker is always limited, so after using up some of the cards, there is a lot of room for calculation in the remaining cards. I can't perform this, it's drudgery, constant memorization and calculation. I'm going to briefly show you how to shuffle and deal cards, but these are not useful in casinos. Because no casino will give gamblers access to gambling equipment. ”
Tang Yan nodded, and Shi Xiaodong began to show his skills.
"What are we going to play?" Shi Xiaodong asked while shuffling the cards, Tang Yan casually said 21 points, Shi Xiaodong shuffled the cards a few more times, and then put the cards on the table.
"I'll sit in the village, Tang Shao, you are a player." Shi Xiaodong explained briefly, and then dealt him and Tang Yan a hidden card each, and then each had an open card.
The famous brand Shi Xiaodong is 8, Tang Yan is 9, and Tang Yan is superior on the surface. With Tang Yan's gambling skills, of course he knows that Shi Xiaodong's hole card is an A, and his hole card is a 7, the dealer is nineteen points, the player is sixteen points, and if Tang Yan says to ask for a card, he will get a 10, directly burst.
Shi Xiaodong turned over the dark card in front of him, and sure enough, it was the red heart A that Tang Yan knew, Shi Xiaodong smiled: "It's nineteen o'clock!" Tang Yan also cooperated very well to pick up his hidden card, and after taking a look, he turned it over on the table.
"Tang Shao, your only chance is to ask for another card, but I can tell you clearly, whether you want it is the same or not, and asking for cards will only cause your card to burst."
Of course, Tang Yan pretended not to believe it, and asked for another one, and a spade 10 was sent to Tang Yan, and Tang Yan exploded instantly.
"This deck of cards in the casino will not move again, there is a difference between I want cards and not cards. Can you still guarantee that you will win the next hand? Tang Yan pretended not to understand and asked.
Shi Xiaodong smiled slightly, and didn't touch the whole deck of cards, but just erased a few cards from the surface and put them in front of himself and Tang Yan respectively.
Tang Yan saw it very clearly, when Shi Xiaodong was dealing cards, the movements in his hands were very fast, and what was issued to himself was drawn from under the first card, but there was a cover of hand movements, and people who didn't know much about gambling would definitely not be able to find it.
Tang Yan has long remembered the order of the whole deck of cards, so he knows very well that his open card is an A, the hidden card is a 9, twenty points seem to have won the game, and Shi Xiaodong's face card is a 6, the hidden card is a K, however, Shi Xiaodong will choose to play a card, although the first card is an 8, but Shi Xiaodong will definitely be able to directly draw out a 5 below and send it to himself, make up 21 points and win this game again.
Tang Yan is like a director, accurately predicting the development of the game, sure enough, when he said that he did not want to cards, Shi Xiaodong turned over the hidden cards, sixteen points, and then he chose to continue to ask for cards, a plum 5 appeared, and won Tang Yan again.
Then the two changed several gambling methods, and Tang Yan lost without exception, so he kept expressing "amazement" in the process of losing, which made Shi Xiaodong's vanity reach the point of infinite expansion.
"Actually, it's nothing, Tang Shao doesn't know about gambling, what I showed Tang Shao today can actually be regarded as a thousand techniques, this kind of technique is almost useless when it comes to the gambling table. Of course, it is not excluded that it can be used when other gamblers are gathered to gamble together in a special VIP room. However, even that is dangerous because there may be a master of the game at the table, and they may be able to see through your moves. In addition, I can hear the sound of the dice cups, and although I can't tell the exact number of the dice, I can still hear the approximate size. In this way, my winning rate in the dice cup bet can basically reach more than 80%. However, there is no way to demonstrate this to Tang Shao, we can't find a standard dice cup and a standard dice now, and the difference in sound will be very large. ”
Tang Yan expressed enough amazement, and took the opportunity to propose that when he got to the gambling boat, he would come to fund the idea of letting Shi Xiaodong gamble, and said that if he loses, it will be his own, and if he wins, Shi Xiaodong can draw 20% from it.
Shi Xiaodong smiled and shook his head: "How can you risk Tang Shao's money?" I think it's better to forget it. I want to get on the gambling boat, that is, I just want to see and learn, by the way, I play a few games, although I am not as rich as Tang Shao, but like my kind of play, my own money should be enough to deal with. ”
"Don't you want to make a big show on the gambling boat and win a lot? I think Mr. Fan's business is not small, and the gambling amount on the ship should be relatively large, and he may be able to win tens of millions of dollars if he wins casually! ”
"Hehe, then I don't know the source of a huge amount of wealth."
"You can take all of it in cash, right? Who can find out with cash. And even if you check, there is enough evidence to prove that Shi Mi won on a gambling boat, and their ship will definitely sail to the sea where gambling is legal, Shi Mi, you don't need to worry about it at all, right? ”
Of course, these words have a strong effect on Shi Xiaodong, but he still bites the bullet and doesn't play now, and Tang Yan, who refuses, seems to be a little "frustrated", but Tang Yan knows that after he gets on the gambling boat, Shi Xiaodong may not be able to control himself.
Three days later, Mr. Fan called Tang Yan and Shi Xiaodong and said that they could get on the ship.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the two came to the Tianzi Wharf as promised, and got on a super-large yacht with a passenger capacity of about 400 people.
From the boat to the afternoon..., it is the time for sightseeing and eating and drinking, all of which are free, and the food and drinks are quite exquisite, it can be seen that the organizer of this yacht gambling boat is really investing a lot of money, Tang Yan estimates that the cost of this free food and drink and yacht alone, each voyage will reach at least millions of republican coins. From this, Tang Yan can also deduce the size of the gambling amount on this yacht, and winning tens of millions should be a relatively normal thing.
Under the contact with other guests, most of us naturally know each other, at least know each other, and the people who can get on this kind of gambling boat are either high-ranking officials or huge rich, who hasn't heard of anyone? And under strict secrecy, the level of this guest needs to be limited even more, so Shi Xiaodong quickly mingled with the other guests and chatted very happily.
Tang Yan is not familiar with these people, it should be said that he has never seen them, and he is too lazy to be verbose, anyway, his only purpose today is to circle Shi Xiaodong in. For this reason, he also deliberately borrowed 30 million from Geng Xin, which was stored in his own account, in order to prevent Shi Xiaodong from borrowing money, and since he wanted to set it, he had to put Shi Xiaodong into it completely, and he really couldn't do it without tens of millions.
In the afternoon... After that, the boat has sailed to the waters belonging to Macau, and in principle, as long as the boat has the license of any casino in Macau, or the license issued by the Macau gambling group, it can gamble legally.
And these are not for gamblers to worry about, the staff on the ship has begun to inform all the guests one by one, the gambling hall is officially launched, and you can go in to gamble.
Tang Yan entered the door and changed five million chips first, and saw that everyone else was about the same, but Shi Xiaodong only exchanged 100,000 chips, it seems that this guy is really short of money.
… When it came to gambling, Shi Xiaodong seemed very cautious, standing in front of a fixed gambling table and watching, and others encouraged him to bet that he was only playing for three or five hundred yuan, which basically belonged to the mode of giving money. Tang Yan didn't encourage him, but sat at a table and played by himself, at first it was pure luck, and it didn't take long for Tang Yan to lose more than one million. However, he quickly used the skill of stealing cards, and the more than one million was quickly won back.
At this time, Shi Xiaodong also began to bet frequently and in large quantities, because the table he was standing on, eight decks of cards had been issued close to four, and at this time, Shi Xiaodong's calculation power could give him considerable help. (To be continued)
