Chapter 53: Drunken Gambling
Sitting in the middle of the house is a pot-bellied old man in white, wearing a pair of reading glasses and holding a hardwood cigarette pouch in his mouth. Looking at the appearance of about 60 years old, the rest of the gamblers are men and women, carefully calculated, no more, no less than exactly seven people, two young waiters in special casino uniforms behind their hands, responsible for supervision. There are no dealers in the casino, but many idle players gamble with each other, which means that it is not the casino to gamble with the player, then there will inevitably be two supervisors to accompany them, in addition to the licensing organization order, at the end of each game will also be drawn from the winner of the authority to a certain commission to the casino.
Lin Han saw that the old man in white won this game, one of the two cards on it was 6, one was 3, and the turned over face card was a J, totaling 19 points. Except for the two who exploded, the points of the other four people were not as big as this old man. According to the point calculation mode presented by the casino, the king of the big and small cards is removed from the deck, and 10, J, Q, and K are all counted as 10 points; The rest of the cards are counted according to their own points. As the name suggests, the two people who exploded must have added more than 21 points of cards in their hands, and they have lost the qualification for the game, and of course they have lost the bet they started betting. One of the supervisors took the three chips from the old man's hand, gave them to the other supervisor after the points, and finally put them in the chip box, seeing that the face value was 500. It seems that the commission taken by the casino side is quite high, at least 1,500 yuan per game.
A supervisor glanced at Lin Han and gestured, "This gentleman, do you want to participate?" This seat is for those who are ready to participate in the game. Lin Han didn't say anything, just nodded slightly. Participate, participate, lose quickly, lose all of it, anyway, I have fallen from the high cliff to the bottom, isn't it just 5,000 yuan. The other people glanced at him casually, and saw that his hair was unkempt, and there were a few pieces of wood chips scattered on his body, and his mouth was full of wine and drunken eyes, just as another down-and-out gambler. This kind of person can be seen every day in the casino, which is not surprising, and no one cares about it.
The supervisor continued: "Then please sir. Lin Han squinted at it, and saw that other people had placed their chips in the designated pattern in front of them, how many were different, the least one put in 1,000 yuan, and the most was the old man, who put in 3,000. Lin Han didn't ask much, grabbed 1000 chips and put them in front of him. The supervisor handed over another bucket of dice and said, "Please shake it well to confirm who is sitting in this game." Lin Han felt more and more dizzy, and just wanted to fall asleep, so he reluctantly took the dice bucket and shook it down and put it back on the table. I don't know how this dice is calculated, and when the other people are finished, the supervisor announces that the dealer in this game is still the old man in white. Lin Han sighed slightly when he heard the rest of the people, obviously dissatisfied in his heart.
The old man in white seemed to be lucky with his luck, smiling when he heard the words, sitting in the banker's position, sucking the old cigarette pouch with a look of hesitation. Somehow, Lin Han was very disgusted with the old guy's face, and felt unspeakably disgusting, so he simply turned his head. The superintendent began to deal cards, and the first round consisted of 8 cards, one for each of them as a face card. Everyone held their breath and secretly looked at the hidden cards in their hands, Lin Han lay on the table, just gently lifted the corner of the card with one hand, and when he saw that it was a J, he continued to lie down and no longer squeaked. The supervisor continued to deal the second card of the next round, this time everyone got the cards, due to the rules of the 21-point game, any two cards added up will not exceed 21 points, so the second card did not ask for everyone's opinion, directly according to the rules sent down. Lin Han got a 6, and the others were of different sizes. This is a very uncomfortable hand, and if you want to go to the next one, there is a 50% chance that it will be blown; If you don't want to, you're a little unwilling. Since everyone is going to compare the size with the dealer, almost all of them go to see the old man's second card, which is a king. The old man in white now put away his smile and was expressionless, probably starting a psychological war, not asking players to guess how many hidden cards are from their faces.
The previous few people either asked for cards, or stopped asking for cards, and it was Lin Han's turn all the time. The dealer is the last to express his opinion on whether to ask for a card, Lin Han is the last player in front of the dealer, looking at the old man in white with a "class struggle" face, a pair of red small triangular eyes looked over, Lin Han was disgusted again, how to see how this old man is not pleasing to the eye, impatiently raised his hand to the supervisor and said: "Send one!" ”
The supervisor gently exported a card and put it in front of Lin Han, looking at the card, it was a 7! "It's exploded!" Lin Han looked at the cards angrily, and simply lay on the table again. The rest of the people looked at his expression and had already guessed that he had exploded, and they sighed one after another, and each continued to ask for cards. The old man in white has a K card, but he still asks for another one with a blank face, this time it is a 9. The old man continued to sit upright without saying a word. Next, there are fewer and fewer people who want cards, and finally when there are no more people who want cards, counting Lin Han, 3 people have been blown up. The old man turned over his hidden card, it turned out to be an A, 20 points, a huge number of points to win! Sure enough, the other players were defeated and lost one by one.
The old man in white finally put on a grinning look again, and hurriedly gathered his chips. Lin Han bet 1000, but the banker's bet was 3000, and he had to lose another 2000, and the rest of the people also calculated the accounts in the same way. Only this one, the old man has already gained 21,000 yuan, and seeing that the commission handed over is still 1,500 hundred yuan, Lin Han calculated the number of commissions per game, which is 1,500.
Next, continue to bet, Lin Han asked to understand, this table bet is at least 500 yuan per person, and the maximum is capped at 5,000. I looked at my chips and removed the tip for the bar girl, and there was only 1500 left. Lin Han wanted to bet all at once, and go to sleep if he lost quickly. Grabbed the chips and put them in the betting area in front of him, maybe he drank too much wine, his fingers were not good, and the two 500 yuan chips fell halfway, but they were thrown into the betting area with 5 100 yuan. Lin Han was stunned for a moment, picked up the dropped chips and wanted to wait for the bet, who knew that the supervisor shouted: "Sir, buy and leave." ”
Lin Han couldn't bet anymore, he felt unlucky, opened the bottle of soda, and drank loudly. In this game, a middle-aged man who bet as much as Lin Han sat in the bank, and grabbed an 18 points, and there was a thrilling all-round kill, and Lin Han lost another 500 yuan. Betting again, Lin Han learned to be obedient, steadily put the two 500 yuan chips into the betting area, and began to shake the dice. Unfortunately, the old man in white sat in the village again.
Lin Han was a little angry, whoever Nima was annoyed by, he would come. Although you have to lose money, you can lose to a good person who looks good, this old guy has a hateful face, and he is really unwilling to lose money to him. The supervisor began to deal dark cards, and this time Lin Han got a 9, and the open card was an 8. 17 points, calculated to win a lot, if conservative, the next card can not be wanted, because the probability of bursting is very large. It is completely possible to keep the current results and leave the pressure to the dealer. The old man in white is a 10, and the hole card is unknown. But he still resolutely asked for cards, and to get an A, and then the next round, the old man seemed to be very confident, still insisted on cards, this time to a 5, so he didn't move. Lin Han broke the jar and broke it, followed the old man, and every round also wanted cards, just wanted to explode, quickly understood the gambling game, who knew that it was really unsatisfactory, the more he wanted to lose, the more the cards joked with him. In the two rounds that followed the old man, Lin Han actually got two aces one after another, and now the card points are added, and his points are 19 points! Lin Han couldn't cry or laugh a little, and the two aces in a row were incredible.
At this time, a dramatic scene appeared on the field, except for the old man in white and Lin Han, the remaining 6 players all exploded! While people admitting defeat, they were also attracted by the final battle between Lin Han and the old man, and began to watch the game of the two people on the table. The Supervisor began to consult the duo on whether they wanted to proceed with the third round of dealing. Many people saw Lin Han's open card, began to point, 10 points of the open card, if the hole card is 4 or 5 or something, it seems that there is a fight; If it's greater than 6, the form is very difficult to say.
The old man in white suddenly stood up and said to the supervisor, "I ask for double!" After he said this, the atmosphere at the scene was a little chaotic. The 21 point game in Liaodong has a rule that the Chinese themselves add later, when the winner is and can only be produced between the two, the dealer has the right to ask for hole cards. Players and dealers in each other's hole cards in the case of deciding the last or a few continue to cards, and then determine the winner or loser, while the bets of both sides doubled, and finally there is an extremely cruel rule, if there is a burst of the side, on the basis of doubling, and then double, in order to improve the excitement of the game. Often this is still compulsive, that is, once the dealer asks for double, the player has no right to refuse, but can only accompany him, and the right to admit defeat is deprived.
Lin Han had used this trick a lot in the past, but it was playing with his roommates, and the bet was a sticker note. The side that loses at most two people will post one more note, of course, if it bursts, it's just two more stickers. But facing such a situation today is something he could never have dreamed of. How could it be that he could inadvertently become the final decisive battle between himself and this old dead man, seven people! actually exploded 6 in a row, and he was also rushing to explode, and he should have ended up a long time ago, who knew that God and himself couldn't get along, and two little A were caught in succession, just hovering on the verge of exploding and not exploding! Originally, 8 people in the game, 6 people exploded, and the remaining two people still have a situation where the dealer is a dealer, and the probability of occurrence is very rare, not to mention that these two individuals still have the opportunity to use the opportunity to "open double" to decide the final winner. The old man in white decided to use such a cruel method to divide the victory and defeat, which also means a possibility: the sum of his hidden cards and open cards is 21 points, and he is already invincible!
