Chapter 31: The Son of Heaven Looks Forward

Lu Yu sold it, and Zhao Xiangnu didn't want to ask again, so with questions, he and Lu Yu went to the largest underground casino in Kyoto District.

It is said that it is an underground casino, but it is only said that the nature of its operation has not been recognized by the government.

It's not really underground, but it's on the street in the busiest part of Kyoto City.

This casino is called flush.

The name comes from a term in Stud, the most famous game of playing cards.

The English name N, also known as sand crab, scientific name R, five stallions, is a kind of poker game. The five-card arrangement and combination determine the winner.

At the start of the game, each player is dealt a hole card, which can only be turned over at the end, and when the second card is dealt, the bet amount is determined by the better hand, and the others have the right to call, raise, fold or clear. When the five cards have been dealt, each player turns over all the hole cards to compare.

The flush, which means that the five cards are of the same suit, is a relatively large card under the stud rules, second only to the straight flush, four of a kind and Furhouse three of a kind called a pair, greater than the straight and three of a kind and so on.

At the entrance of the casino, the duo was strictly inspected, and no anything was allowed to be brought in, including mobile phones and watches, except for bank cards, credit cards and cash, in order to prevent gamblers from losing money in the casino.

Lu Yu didn't come to cheat at all, naturally he didn't bring any cheating tools, passed the security check smoothly, and when he arrived at the palatial casino hall, the two went to exchange chips first.

In this casino, the general chips are all dollars, and every 100 dollars is considered a bet. Zhao Xiangnu only brought five hundred US dollars, so naturally it could only be regarded as five bets.

When she went to redeem, the little girl at the service desk looked at Lu Yu and Zhao Xiangnu in surprise.

Flush casino, but the largest casino in the entire Kyoto area and even in Japan, the daily flow of gambling money is more than one billion, dare to come here to gamble, either rich or expensive, win or lose at least hundreds of thousands of dollars, millions or even tens of millions of dollars is not uncommon, to the flush casino, only exchange for five hundred dollars in chips, she is the first time to see.

However, based on professional ethics, she still exchanged the chips to Lu Yu and said in Japan: "Sir, I wish you and this beautiful lady a good time." ”

"Brother Lu, what are you going to bet on first?" Zhao Xiangnu asked.

"It's only five small chips, what can you play, baccarat." Lu Yu said with a smile.

The two asked for the place and walked to the place where they played baccarat.

When he arrived at the baccarat area, Lu Yu did not gamble first, but observed.

Baccarat is a globally popular poker card gambling French for R, br in Italian means "0", originated in France is a card game, popular in casinos across Europe.

In the 20th century, Mr. Ye Han, the gambling king of Macau, introduced R from the United States to Macau, and gave it a name with oriental colors, baccarat.

To this day, baccarat is one of the popular gambling games in casinos around the world. Among Macau's casinos, the number of baccarat tables is the largest in the world.

"Brother Lu, what are you studying?" Zhao Xiangnu saw that Lu Yu was slow to place a bet, and asked suspiciously.

"That Anu, I've only heard of a game like baccarat, I haven't played it once, and I don't understand the rules, can you tell me about it?" Lu Yu said with some embarrassment.

Zhao Xiangnu was speechless, she saw Lu Yu's expression so focused, and thought that Lu Yu was an expert in playing baccarat, but she didn't even understand the rules.

In this way, can you really make tens of millions of dollars in a flush casino with $500?

Although he knows Lu Yu's identity and has heard some of his deeds in Jianghai, he knows that this Lu Shaoshuai is definitely not an exaggerated person with a swollen face and a fat man.

But in Zhao Xiangnu's heart, he still didn't believe that Lu Yu could really win money at the flush casino.

However, she still explained to Lu Yu carefully.

The rules of baccarat are actually extremely simple.

In general, 3 to 8 decks of 52 cards are used, shuffled together, placed in a dealership, from which the dealer distributes them.

Each player strives to have two or three cards in their hand with a total of 9 or close to 9.

, , and 10 are counted as 0, and the other cards are counted according to the value of the card.

When calculating, the value of the cards in each hand is added, but only the last digit is counted. The dealer who pays the most on the spot is the banker.

Baccarat games are divided into four categories: Zhuang N, Player, and Pair R.

In addition, some casinos have their own unique betting methods, such as Big and Small, Banker Double, Banker Single, Player Even, and Player Single. Zhuang and Xian here do not have specific meanings, but only represent both sides of the game, and the sum and the pair are a lottery set up to increase entertainment.

Guests can choose Banker, Player, Tie Pair or any other bet according to their own ideas.

Baccarat in the flush casino, there is no other way to play, there is only a simple banker, player, and, pair four doors.

Bet on the banker and the banker wins, win 1 to 1, and deduct 5 commissions to the banker.

Bet on the Player and Player Winner wins 1 to 1.

Bet on the tie and the final score is the same, winning 1 to 8.

Bets on the pair, i.e. the banker or the first two cards of the player are the same number or letters, wins 1 to 11.

Lu Yu listened, smiled, and said, "This is simple. ”

After he finished speaking, he did not immediately place a bet, but continued to observe.

It is not to observe the rules of the game, to study the rules of what banker and player, but to look at people.

The table where this baccarat is played is a big table.

On the table, there were a total of 14 guests playing, and the chips on each guest's table were in the range of more than 100,000 or hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I don't know if there are any casino nurseries, but I believe that the vast majority of them are just guests who come to play.

Why is baccarat called baccarat, as the name suggests, he does not limit the number of people who can play cards.

At the big table, there are fourteen guests, and the guests next to them can also follow along and place bets, as many as they want.

In other words, for every $100, you can play a handful.

Lu Yu watched slowly, and after watching for about half an hour, he still didn't place a single chip.

Zhao Xiangnu was impatient to wait, and said, "Brother Lu, why don't you go down yet?" ”

Lu Yu smiled: "No hurry, no hurry." I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, our gambling money is only 500, there are not many opportunities for trial and error, and it is always good to observe more. ”

Zhao Xiangnu was puzzled: "Brother Lu, baccarat is a pure mathematical game, and the probabilities are all on the bright side, what are the rules to study?" ”

"Who said I was looking at the cards?" Lu Yu lowered his voice.

"Brother Lu, what are you looking at?" Zhao Xiangnu asked.

"Look at people." Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, "The Son of Heaven is angry, talking and laughing and killing, and some kung fu can not only be used to kill, but also to see luck." ”
