Chapter 152: The Colosseum
Zhuo Xiaodong first turned over the first four cards, three Qs and one 6, and looked at the rich woman with a very underdrawn expression.
The rich woman was already dumbfounded, her eyes flickering at his last card that had not yet been opened, although she had already guessed the answer, but she kept deceiving herself in her heart.
"Please open the cards" the beautiful dealer showed a polite smile, a game in which she bets much more than this is not uncommon, but in the same game there are two heavenly cards is very rare, this kind of card is also the type that can make people lose to bankruptcy.
"I'll go, you'll touch a bomb, right?" Zheng Fei couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, stood up directly from the stool, and looked at the cards on Zhuo Xiaodong's table for a moment.
The corners of Zhuo Xiaodong's mouth raised, and he slowly turned over the last card, which was the last Q of spades.
Everyone was amazed, but Zhuo Xiaodong was still extremely indifferent, just nodded at the rich woman.
"Thank you for your support" He didn't do much to get cheap and sell well, but he was so angry that the rich woman got up and left the scene angrily.
The middle-aged man squinted and knocked on Zhuo Xiaodong, but he didn't expect that the final winner was actually this young Dongfang guy.
As soon as he got down, Zhuo Xiaodong's chips soared directly to nearly 40 million, and the dealer exchanged the scattered chips for him with 30 million chips and several millions.
The three of them got up at the same time, and were about to go into the so-called VIP room to have fun, when the middle-aged man came over with a smile on his face.
"Little brother, it seems that you have good luck today, why don't we go play something big?" The middle-aged man seemed to notice that Zhuo Xiaodong was a super tyrant at all, and the expression on his face did not fluctuate in the slightest after winning tens of millions, as if he was very ordinary.
Seeing that the three of them were all the way, the middle-aged man smiled at each other, this kind of trick is more common in casinos, but he didn't say anything.
"Play big? It depends on what you're playing! Zhuo Xiaodong made no secret of his strong interest.
"Go into the VIP room, there are more tricks in there." The middle-aged man led the way in front and greeted the three of them towards the VIP room.
The VIP room cannot be just up to the second floor of the casino, but it is guarded here, and it is not allowed to enter without tens of millions of chips.
A few people followed behind the middle-aged man and seemed to be unimpeded, and the few strong men guarding the steps just nodded and smiled when they saw the middle-aged man, and did not mean to stop them.
"This guy can't get it right." Zheng Fei whispered in Zhuo Xiaodong's ear to remind.
Zhuo Xiaodong nodded, it was not clear whether it was for him, but he would never let go of the opportunity to make money.
Li Zhilong also played twelve points of spirit, and his eagle-like sharp eyes kept scanning the surroundings, which was his professional habit, and he began to look for a dangerous aura after arriving in a new environment.
"Hehe, there are many ways to gamble here, such as betting on football, there are various sports events around the world every day, football, basketball, table tennis, badminton as long as you win or lose." After the middle-aged man glanced at Zhuo Xiaodong's expression, he showed a satisfied smile, obviously he thought that Zhuo Xiaodong, a rookie, had been bluffed by him, "Every room we have here has a TV picture that is being broadcast live around the world, you can choose it and buy it at will." ”
"You guys? Do you think you look like a casino worker? Zhuo Xiaodong looked at the middle-aged man suspiciously.
"I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Sapir. Andrei, is a promoter in the casino. But don't think I'm a trust, as you saw just now, I'm actually a professional gambler, and I'm just working as a promoter to better serve you high-end customers. Sapir smiled sincerely, he didn't intend to hide anything, everything was based on Zhuo Xiaodong's willingness.
"Oh! So that's the case, so let me ask if you have any of that kind of beast fight. Zhuo Xiaodong did not question Sapir's identity, since the other party was open and honest, then he didn't have to hide it.
Sapir's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhuo Xiaodong with appreciative eyes, "Sure enough, he is a good gambler, of course there are beast fighting competitions, and our hotel has just introduced several fierce beasts." The game is going on all the time, so I'm going to take you up and take a look. ”
Hearing this, Zhuo Xiaodong was excited in his heart, and he was thinking about how to take the gorilla away from here. Apparently they were able to get the gorillas here, and they were ready to prevent anyone from robbing them.
Led by Sapir, they took the elevator directly to the top floor of the hotel. The tens of thousands of square meters on the top floor of the hotel were built into a huge building of the Colosseum, which was surrounded by an iron fence nearly ten meters high. There are spectator seats around the perimeter, and the Colosseum in the middle is also covered with iron nets, in order to prevent wild beasts from harming humans.
At this moment, the top floor is full of people, the stands are full of people, and the cheers and shouts are even more deafening, which is much more lively than the casino downstairs.
Seeing that Sapir brought people up, the security at the door did not block it and let him go directly.
Sapir placed the three of them in the high stands, where he could clearly see every corner of the Colosseum, where a tiger and a lion were fighting. This is a battle between the king of the forest and the beasts, and if it weren't for this brutal Colosseum, it would have been difficult for the lion and the tiger to go head-to-head alone.
Because lions are social animals, while tigers are solitary. Therefore, it is natural to have the upper hand in fighting alone, but it is difficult to predict the outcome of the lions' attack.
In this kind of battle at the moment, the odds of a lion win are higher than those of a tiger, with a tiger winning one to two, while a lion winning is five to one, and a draw is ten to one.
The spectators naturally have different ideas, some buy lions and some buy tigers, after all, there are many uncertainties in the competition between the two beasts of nature, and any action may make the other party fatal.
At this time, the staff of the casino came over, and according to the regulations, it was necessary to place bets in advance when entering the Colosseum, and the performance was not watched in vain. Of course, after the game, some people are happy and some are sad.
The $100,000 ante wager for this event is also unlimited.
"How old are these lion and tiger?" Zhuo Xiaodong looked at the staff and asked.
"The tiger is 3 years old, the lion is 2 years old." The staff is smiling and polite, and it is relatively common to ask some questions before placing a bet.
"How have they been, and have they ever been injured?" Zhuo Xiaodong does not intend to bet at will, at least the winning rate should be more than 50%.
"The tiger has fought many fierce beasts and never lost, this lion was just sent a few days ago, and today is its first battle. If the lion is injured, it is not clear, the tiger has indeed suffered many injuries, large and small, but none of them are fatal. The staff looked at Zhuo Xiaodong expectantly, thinking that this should be a professional gambler, and he should only need to use a big deal if he asked so clearly.
"What about gender?"
"It's all male." The waiter was a little impatient, and the sex of the lion could be distinguished by its appearance.
"What is the state of betting now, whether there are more tigers or lions." Zhuo Xiaodong threw out a crucial question this time.
Many times the casino controls the game so that most people lose money, so that the money can go into the casino's pocket.
"This is not counted yet, because the betting continues." The staff's words flickered, and it seemed that they didn't intend to sue Zhuo Xiaodong.
"Bet on the boy, the game is about to heat up." Sapir urged on the side, the more Zhuo Xiaodong knew, the less likely the casino would win.
"So what kind of situation is considered a draw?" Zhuo Xiaodong still didn't give up and continued to ask.
"This rarely happens, and the one standing on the field is the winner in the end, and it is generally impossible for both to die at the same time." A flash of surprise flashed in the staff's eyes, and they spoke eloquently.
"And what if there's a draw?"
"The odds are ten to ten, and buying 100,000 will give you 1 million." The staff frowned slightly.
"Then I'll buy a draw, of course, according to the high odds." Zhuo Xiaodong looked at Zheng Fei on the side, regardless of the fact that the lion had been beaten by the tiger and retreated.
"Are you sure?" Zheng Fei was a little skeptical of Zhuo Xiaodong's vision.
Zhuo Xiaodong felt the atmosphere of the audience, when the tiger fell to gain the upper hand, the cry was obviously more intense than when the lion had the upper hand, which showed that the people who bought the tiger won the majority.
If there is a tie, it is natural to buy both sides to win or lose, and there are very few people who buy a draw in this case.
Casinos are unlikely to open this kind of ending in order to make money, and the implication is that the outcome is naturally all expected, mainly depending on which side has more chips.
Hearing Zhuo Xiaodong's purchase, Sapir showed a sly smile on his face, as if the outcome of the game was expected by him.
"And how much are you going to buy, sir?" The waiter asked.
"40 million." Zhuo Xiaodong took all the chips on the two of them and made up a whole number and bet on them.
"40 million?" Zheng Fei swallowed his saliva and gave a thumbs up to Zhuo Xiaodong, his face was a little unpleasant. He counted with his fingers, "If you win 40 million, it will be a loss of ten, that is, a net profit of 1 billion?" ”
Zhuo Xiaodong shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, not feeling this number at all.
Although Li Zhilong on the side was not shocked, he was already angry in his heart. When he was a killer, his salary was already very high, and he was calculated in millions to complete anything, but he really didn't accept it if it was 1 billion casually.
"It's not over yet, it's still unknown whether to lose 40 million or win 1 billion." Zhuo Xiaodong put his hands on his chest and watched intently as the two huge guys in the Colosseum fought each other.
At this moment, Sapir had disappeared behind Zhuo Xiaodong, and it was obvious that this seemingly lucky young man had made a very wrong decision, and his use value had been wiped out. R1152
