Chapter 024: It's a Breeze
The scale of the VVIP casino, or the black market casino, is not large, and even the gambling equipment is pitiful, there are only five slot machines, and there are more gambling tables, about a dozen, all around are empty, the number of waiters is far more than the number of customers, and there are all kinds of girls interspersed with the crowd.
But according to Paul, the chips at each table here are unmatched by other casinos. There is a lot of black money that passes through these tables, little by little, and there are many more people who give up their fortune to the casinos and lose all their money. Casinos are black and black, and it doesn't take much effort.
"That's why the casino has reduced the margin percentage, although it is not as good as 30% of the normal route, but who can guarantee that the money from the casino will be returned? This is a classic marketing technique, through advertising and gimmicks, to continuously expand customers and increase revenue. ”
"What about the poker table?" Shi Hu asked. Poker is player-versus-player, and the dealer cannot participate and can only take 20% of it.
Paul said: "There are always exceptions, and the dealer has to give some hope. But quantity is everything, and if you can check their accounts, you'll understand why. ”
"I think there's another reason," Shi Hu also figured it out, and his eyes swept over the rest of the tables: "Not everyone likes to play poker, and the dealer is always invincible." ”
"Makes sense." Paul agrees, "Look around, I guess the big hands haven't started yet, you like to play big." ”
"I know." Shi Hu understood what he meant, and he didn't get much out of killing Xiaoyu frequently, so he had to wait for those tens of millions of gambles and play ruthlessly.
But luck also has to be good, and Paul's suggestion is to divide the money in two, and if you lose one for bad luck, you can get back the money left...... Looking at Shi Hu in practice, if he is very confident, he can smash all the tens of millions on a game, Paul can only give calm advice.
Before Paul was about to play the slot machine, which was a patent for the elderly, he suddenly reminded Shi Hu: "Don't play blackjack, and don't use your tricks." ”
"How do you know?" Shi Hu sneered.
"Listen." Paul pulled him aside and said solemnly: "You play blackjack in a casino, there is a law to protect you, and the casino will not mess around easily, but here, the law is a joke in their eyes, killing a person on the high seas is as simple as killing an ant, don't cause trouble." ”
"I know." Shi Hu didn't dare to hold it up: "I'm going to play baccarat, right?" ”
……
Shi Hu lost millions on baccarat.
He has no control over the game of probability, and it generally depends on luck. In fact, he played a few handfuls, the first five hands won six or seven hundred thousand, and the latter lost, he bet in geometric multiples according to the mathematical algorithm of doubling the bet to recover the book, but he didn't expect that the principal was not enough, and all of them were planted on it.
He didn't mind at all, drinking a glass of champagne and talking and laughing with his female companion. In the eyes of others, he didn't look at Baccarat at all, and most of his thoughts were on flirting with hot women, a typical gentleman, who didn't treat money as money...... This kind of person, the casino favorite.
"Forget it, I'm not going to play this." Shi Hu pulled his female companion away, and then said to Brian: "I am better at playing poker, if there is a big game, please remind me." ”
"I'll keep an eye on you, sir." Brian said that an agent usually only serves one customer, and it is his duty to take care of Shi Hu's needs.
There was no poker game that night, but there was a lucky guy who won tens of millions of dollars on baccarat, and he was envious of a bunch of people. What hasn't changed is the attitude of the casino: eternal customer God. The casino is not afraid of customers winning, they are afraid that they will leave immediately if they win, as long as they continue to gamble, they will return sooner or later.
Shi Hu spent a boring night, went to the movies, ate in the restaurant, and slept...... The next day the cruise ship was ready to dock in Marseille. Go down some VVIP, come up some VVIP, and the cruise ship leaves the port in a low-key manner. The journey to the black world continues, and the big gamble is still not moving.
Someone was playing poker in the morning, and Brian informed him, but the players were all one or two million hands, and his request was an average of five million, or more than 50,000 blinds, which did not meet the criteria at the moment, and was not worth playing. If you make a move too early, you will only expose your strength and style.
Shi Hu went to the top of the cruise ship to swim in the open air, and the super cruise ship has the advantage of being large, comparable to a small mobile city, and the entertainment on land is moved to the sea. He was accompanied by beautiful women and his men, Eva accompanied him in the sun and chatted, and Michael brought him tea and water.
In the afternoon, Brian informed that a group of gamblers wanted to play on a whim, and they specifically looked for a big one who dared to play and asked him if he wanted to participate.
Shi Hu naturally faced the battle, this was the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time, and brought five million, graceful women and a younger brother who tended to be inflammatory, and rushed to the card game.
Including him, there are five players, most of whom have been seen at the banquet the night before, and one of them is the guy who won tens of millions in baccarat last night and is now playing with millions. The rest of the players also had no less than five million funds, and there were people in the audience one after another.
Shi Hu sat down, Michael handed over the chips, and he said, "Ask for a glass of lemonade." ”
Michael nodded and stepped back.
The dealer is in place, and the manager announces the rules: No Limit Poker, 50,000/100,000 blinds, no withdrawal chips can be taken with you, the money is counted by the casino, and the Swiss bank is in custody.
The biggest blind bet Shi Hu has ever played is 20,000, and now it has soared directly to 100,000, which makes people adrenaline rush and full of anticipation. You have to play with these people who don't treat money as money to be able to show his talent. In the third round, someone raised to 1 million, and Shi Hu chose to fold.
Unlike poker, the high seas have a large set of blinds, where every hand counts, and frequent folds in professional tournaments can be a burn here. Players don't have the patience of a pro gamer, and it's usually a matter of feeling and a bit of luck to cut through the mess quickly.
By the sixth round, there were all the people, a blue-eyed man with an inch head, surnamed McLaughlin, I don't know what he was doing, but it was difficult to hide the fierce aura in his eyes, and everyone, including Shi Hu, chose to fold. Although he has better hole cards, he has only been dealt three cards, who knows what luck will be in the future?
McLaughing: "I didn't expect it to be so simple to eat black here." ”
One player also laughed: "It takes courage to win." ”
"Quick, next game, let me see how brave you are." McLaughlin slapped the table.
Shi Hu used mind reading techniques on him, but it was not accurate at all times, he could only feel his mood, and unlike the arrogance on the surface, he was very calm.
It turned out to be an actor...... Shi Hu looked at his hole cards, raised to 2 million, and followed; McLaughlin also called, and increased to 3 million, Shi Hu was all down - the audience erupted in a burst of soft shouts, exciting! It's only been a few rounds since the beginning, and I have re-bet many times and played all in twice, which is enough to make the audience interested.
Paul looked at it calmly, but his eyes betrayed him, this one is five million, and if he loses, he will be gone.
Michael is very confident, he is very confident in Shi Hu, the god of gambling, and he has never seen who can win him on the playing cards.
"You look confident." The other party stared at Shi Hu's eyes until the dealer reminded him that the time was up, and he made up his mind: "All-in." ”
"I'll do it all, too."
I thought it was a duel between Shi Hu and McLaughlin, but I didn't expect that there would be a third party involved - it was the guy who won Baijiale, and his face was relaxed.
Shi Hu knew that his hole card was a king, a very big pair, and there was a king on the board, so there was no reason for a risk-taker not to call all-in.
The dealer knocked on the table with his hand, removed the top card, dealt the remaining cards, and then looked around: "Show the cards, gentlemen!" ”
The big winner of Baccarat is a three-of-a-kind k.
But McLaughlin was a straight from 9 to k, and he already had a triumphant look on his face - until Shi Hu turned over his hole cards and made a flush.
The flush > straight > three of a kind, rules that laymen are clear.
The dealer announced: "Flush wins." ”
McLaughlin's face froze, staring at the cards in disbelief for a long time, then shook his head, shook off the word "bad luck", and left his seat depressed.
On the other hand, the other person's face was calm, and he muttered a few words, but Shi Hu couldn't understand it, and the other party's translator said, "Good luck, young man." ”
"I've been lucky." Shi Hu smiled.
"Master, you're amazing!" Michael in the audience was even more excited. How long has it been? It's only half an hour, and more than 10 million dollars are immediately swept away! He thought that what he saw at the Rio Hotel was a rare big game, but here he immediately refreshed it and improved it by an order of magnitude.
Paul smiled, "This kid is good! ”
