Chapter 1284: Shocking Gamble [5]
Sic Cup, also known as Sic Bo, is the most popular way to gamble and the oldest gambling game invented by mankind because it is simple to play, easy to lose and win, and the number of participants is not limited.
According to relevant records, a hundred years ago, during the heyday of Macao's "gambling houses," there were as many as 200 "Sic Bo stalls" specializing in them.
As a result, the grand occasion of "Sic Bo" has become an "unprecedented" major spectacle in Macao.
But in film and television works, the masters at the gambling table often have a hint of coldness at the corners of their mouths, put them into the black dice cup like dice, and then hold the dice cup with five fingers of their right hand, and their arms shake, and the dice make a beeping sound in the dice cup, and then dance vigorously in a semi-arc with the arm. The dice cup paused suddenly, and then gently unveiled, and the mystery suddenly revealed that the ordinary boiling scene did not really exist.
In real life, the gambling king is also a human being, and Juvens lives around the real society, even if it is himself, he will laugh when he sees those exaggerated works of art that are higher than life.
Because he knows that those so-called gambling tricks are actually used to deceive others, and they can't be real.
However, nothing is absolute.
Since Juvens wants to overwhelm Liu Yuhao in momentum, winning the first game is the first priority he must do now, so when studying casino tactics, Juvens deliberately asked to put the dice cup game at the front.
The moment the cup was dropped, Juvans smiled!
But the strange thing is that Liu Yuhao also smiled with Juvents!
At this moment, the expressions of the two were completely different.
The smile on Juwens' face was hard to fathom, and although a quick flash of confusion flashed between his brows the moment he put down the cup, a contemptuous sneer eventually took over all of his facial expressions.
But Liu Yuhao's smile is the kind of "very stupid and naΓ―ve", but full of confidence.
"Second master, what do you think?"
Under the stands, Ma Jia was more nervous than anyone else, and when he saw Old Man Qiu's brows frowning slightly, his heart was suddenly raised to his throat, and he subconsciously asked.
Old Man Qiu shook his head, sighed lightly, and said, "Young people have a good personality, but they are easy to underestimate the enemy, and it is not good to fall into passivity. β
Ma Jia's heart was put back again, he knew that the young man Qiu said must be Liu Yuhao, since the "second master" was not optimistic about that young man, he was also a lot more relieved.
But Ma Jia has always been cautious in doing things, pretending to be very curious, and asked, "Hehe, I don't know why the second master suddenly made such a sigh?" β
Old Man Qiu glanced at Ma Jia and said lightly: "Juvens started with He Sanye." β
"Oh, it seems to be so."
Ma Jia nodded, He Sanye is the gambling king of Macau, and he is also one of the only remaining "enlightenment" bigwigs of the Green Gang who is on a par with Old Man Qiu, as a disciple of the Green Gang, Ma Jia still knows this.
Old Man Qiu said lightly: "Then have you heard of the Dice Listening Party under He Sanye?" β
"Listen to the dice?"
Ma Jia was stunned, then shook his head and said, "No, I haven't heard of it." β
Old Man Qiu smiled, shook his hand and said: "I'm old, I really can't remember a lot of things clearly, listening to the dice party was more than thirty years ago, and you were still running a boat at that time, weren't you?" β
Ma Jia's old face suddenly turned red, and a touch of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he still couldn't bear the unhappiness and said with a smile: "The second master is not old, and he can remember the events of more than thirty years ago so clearly." β
More than 30 years ago, Ma Jia was just the son-in-law of the Wu family, and at that time, he tried his best to win the favor of the old lady Wu in order to inherit the Wu family's property smoothly one day.
After so many years, many people don't dare to mention the sad past in front of Ma Jia, but now Old Man Qiu suddenly said, can he not be angry.
Old Man Qiu didn't seem to notice that Ma Jia's face was flashing with a cloudy and uncertain expression, and he squinted his eyes and told an unknown past more than thirty years ago.
Anyone who likes to enter the casino hopes that they will be lucky enough to win. There are indeed "blind cats who bump into dead mice", and if they are lucky enough to be the winners a few times, they will clamoring for everyone to rush to the casino. But then it always backfires, and the more gamblers insist on gambling to the end, the worse they lose.
Think about it, if gamblers can win, wouldn't everyone who opened a casino become a big fool?
Therefore, all the gambling games in the casino are cleverly designed. To put it bluntly, they are all designed to make customers willing to "give" their money to the casino.
In the early days of the opening of the Macau casino, He Sanye was not skilled in the "trick" of making money, and some gamblers took the opportunity to break the secret of the casino game equipment and made a big profit.
At that time, He Sanye had just won the Macau gambling license and poured all his assets into the formation of Aotai Entertainment Company.
This group of "dice listening parties" came fiercely, betting more than 10,000 yuan each time, and moved away more than 700,000 yuan from the casino in three or five days, causing panic in the casino. He Sanye had to give a death order to Juvans, who was then the director of the Sic Bo Department of Aotaixing Company, asking him to crack the secret within a time limit and quickly reverse the money-losing "deal".
"Did Juvens already follow He Sanye at that time?"
Ma Jia couldn't help but gasp, his face full of consternation.
Old Man Qiu nodded and said, "At that time, Juvens's reputation was far from being as loud as it is now, but in He Sanye's field, he can be regarded as a first-class master." β
Ma Jia nodded thoughtfully, and Old Man Qiu continued to tell the story from the past.
One day, the leader of the "Dice Listening Party", "Jin Ye", came to the Sic Bo table with a group of followers. Seeing that he called for wind and rain, bet on small and small, bet on big and big, and win all the plates, he was so miraculous that he came the next day, and on the third day, a lot of tickets came into his pocket like flowing water, and no one in the casino was happy, what is going on?
At this time, the Juvens mandate appeared.
When Juvens was more than 10 years old, he joined the Macau "Aoxin Casino" as a dealer, and soon became popular in the casino and became the best dealer. He quietly stayed by the sic table for several days to carefully observe and figure out what the "Jin Ye" used to return the bet.
Whenever the dealer shakes the dice, Juvans up his ears so big that he can't tell the difference in the sound of each drop.
In this way, Juvens observed for half a month, and finally one day, he discovered the secret! It turned out that the dice landed on the bottom of the glass cup, and while spinning, they made a "squeak" sound, but the sound was different.
The sound was very faint, but Juvans eventually made it. If it is like the slight chirping of autumn cicadas, it is "6 o'clock" and the upward side is "1 o'clock". If the sound of the dice falling on the glass is relatively low, then the point of the cup will be small, not "1", that is, "2", then the number of points facing the sky is not "6", it is "5". However, the most difficult thing is to distinguish the sound of three dice falling in the instant when the three dice are shaking at the same time.
The hard work paid off, and in the end, Juvans was able to distinguish the subtle difference between the three dice falling at the same time! is a little smarter than the "Jin Ye" with a pair of "Joyride Ears".
So, Juvans, who knew the trick, immediately transformed the Sic Bo Cup, and padded a thick layer of flannel on the soft glass at the bottom of the Sic Bo Cup. From then on, the "squeak" sound of the dice falling on the bottom of the glass cup was no longer audible.
Since then, "Jin Ye" and his "Dice Listening Party" have never come to Macau casinos again. And Juvans broke the "Dice Listening Party", but why did the third master make great contributions, and his fame spread far and wide, and the names of "Gambling Saint", "Gambling Lord", "God of Gambling", and others are famous in the Southeast Asian gambling world.
"In this way, Juvans must be able to hear what Liu Yuhao shook just now."
Ma Jia didn't expect Juvens to have such a past, and almost listened to Old Man Qiu's words as a mythical story, but after listening to it, he also analyzed why Old Man Qiu said that he was worried about Liu Yuhao just now.
"Hehe, Juvans must have not only learned the housekeeping style of "Jin Ye", but even the "silent dice cup" with a thick layer of flannel had no effect on him. Thinking of this, Ma Jia secretly rejoiced in his heart.
"Next, we have asked Mr. Simon, President of the Emperor Gaming Association, to reveal the results of the dice cup for us."
The master of ceremonies' words brought Margaret back to reality.
Simon is a lean old man, with a shiny bald head, especially his unusual arms are twenty centimeters longer than ordinary people, but when they see him in person, the first thing that comes to people's minds is Tarzan of the apes.
However, no one dared to underestimate this strange-looking old man, and when Simon walked to the table, Juvans quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
Simon glanced at Liu Yuhao and Juvans coldly with an expressionless face, and at the same time stretched out his big hand, which had been shriveled into chicken claws, and grabbed the dice cup in front of Juvans, without making any pause, and directly unveiled it.
"Wow!"
"Four, four one!"
In an instant, the eyes of the people in the audience burst with unprecedented enthusiasm, and a few people shouted frantically to applaud Juvens's superb gambling skills.
"How so!"
After seeing the results in the dice cup, the pores behind Cheng Conglian's back exploded suddenly, and the snow-white little hand subconsciously stuffed into the cherry mouth, and the joints of the whole body trembled from head to toe.
In that cup, two of the dice were stacked together, and the minimum five that was supposed to appear was now a four.
"What can I do?"
Although Naiko was ignorant about betting on the dice cup, she could read Cheng Conglu's expression, and she knew that her master was in trouble now.
Simon pressed his hand to stop the still whistling man and announced: "Dice Cup, Mr. Juwens' score is four. β
