Chapter 80 Casino Manager

After getting off the plane in Las Vegas, he was soon picked up by a special person, and a special person at the Las Vegas airport was there to pick up guests to go to major casinos.

Link is also a veteran gambler, and this time he didn't go from casino to casino first, as is customary, but went straight to the most famous MGM Casino Hotel.

First go to the front desk to report your name, hand the documents to the front desk, complete the entry procedures, the waiter will send Link's luggage to the room, Link will go downstairs to the casino.

Unlike in the past, when he only exchanged a few thousand dollars at the beginning, this time Link directly exchanged 50,000 chips, three 10,000 chips, two 5,000 chips, and 1,000 chips.

It was already past ten o'clock in the evening, but the casino was still crowded with gamblers from all over the world, and the hall was packed.

Gamblers eager to get rich overnight crowd around the tables of baccarat, roulette, blackjack, etc., forgetting the change of time, and their eyes are only on the chips on the table and the results in the hands of the dealer.

Every time the game is revealed, there will be a loud sigh from the crowd, or excitedly cheering to take the chips into their arms, and if they win, they will throw a chip to the dealer as a tip.

Instead of going to the blackjack table he was familiar with, Link went straight to the roulette table.

This American roulette, the roulette wheel is marked with numbers 00, 0 and 1 to 36, except for 0 and 00 are green, the other numbers are divided into odd or even numbers and black and black, and the dealer places an ivory ball on the wheel and turns it clockwise.

If the ball falls between any two metal intervals on the roulette wheel and hits the winning number, color, etc., the gambler wins, but if it falls to 0 and 00, the dealer will be killed.

Because of this rule, the dealer has a 5.26% advantage, and as long as he plays long enough, the dealer will always be the winner, but for Link, his odds of winning are even higher than the dealer's.

Today's roulette wheels are mechanically controlled, and although it seems to be irregular, in fact the rules can still be calculated.

It's like in an episode of The Big Bang Theory, Sheldon went to Las Vegas specifically to raise money and calculated the roulette table, and he was finally able to narrow down the possibility to three numbers, only to be asked out by the casino staff before he could place his bet.

Link has been to Las Vegas many times before, and every time he comes to this casino, he will observe and calculate the patterns, and make corrections, and he has already completed the relevant preparations.

Therefore, after watching a few games and betting on two smaller bets, he also knew in his heart, for example, he knew that the probability of the next two numbers 19 and 31 adding up to 87%.

If you choose to bet on a specific number, this type of betting is called betting on solitary ding in roulette, and once you win, you will get more than 30 times the super high odds, but few people do this, because the probability is too small.

If Link bets on these two numbers alone, there is indeed a high probability of winning, but he doesn't want to be in the limelight, so he still chooses to bet on odd and even like most gamblers.

Of course, he seems to have pressed the red and black singles and doubles at will, losing and winning, but in fact, the chips on hand have been increasing, and when he wins, he bets more big chips, and when he loses, he bets more small chips.

So his overall win rate is not even 50%, but in just over an hour, his chips have gone from $50,000 to $1.61 million.

If Link wanted to, he would have continued, and it would have been easy to win a $20 million or two million a night, but Link could feel that the casino had begun to pay attention to him for a while.

Therefore, Link will accept it when he sees it, after all, it is not uncommon for a lucky gambler to win one or two million dollars, as long as it is not repeated in the short term.

casually gave a $1,000 tip to the female publicist next to him, and Link just stood up when he noticed that the Texas Hold'em poker table not far away was very lively, so he asked, "What's going on over there?" ”

"Sir, it's a Texas Hold'em tournament that's going on, and you only need a thousand chips to enter the event and compete for a million-dollar prize, sir, you're a day late, or you'll have a chance to sign up."

Link didn't play Texas Hold'em in his last life, but this life is different, as an American, his hometown is still Texas, how can he not understand Texas Hold'em.

Players are dealt two hole cards each, and 5 community cards are dealt on the table in turn, and players use their two hole cards and 5 community cards to freely combine to determine the winner according to the size.

The game is so skillful that many people are fascinated by it, and every year a variety of Texas Hold'em tournaments are held around the world.

According to the regulations, there is a threshold of 1,000 yuan for the competition, and the total prize money will be about 1 million US dollars, which means that the number of participants is about 1,000.

According to the general rule, 10 percent, or about 100 people, will enter the money circle and share the total prize money of one million dollars.

The first place will probably get 17.5%, that is, about 175,000 championship bonuses, and the lowest can only get 0.17%, that is, 1,700 yuan, and you can make a profit when you enter the money circle.

Las Vegas casinos have similar activities almost every month, the scale is large and small, such as this one is a relatively large one, Link has not participated much before, because this kind of competition usually takes two or three days.

With all these times, Link has won no less in blackjack, and the key is that winning the jackpot means that most of them will be famous and become the focus of the casino, which is not in line with Link's previous low-key principles.

However, out of interest, Link leaned over to look at it for a while, and saw an acquaintance at the table, Tom Dewan.

This guy is a professional poker player, often messing around in Las Vegas, and even going to Europe or Southeast Asia from time to time to participate in various poker tournaments, and he can be said to be a top player.

Because he has been in and out of Las Vegas a lot in the past year, Link has played a few games with him by chance, and the two of them know each other, but they don't have a deep friendship.

By this time, it was clear that the game was at its end, and with a chicken steal, Tom managed to win the day, while accepting the cheers of the people around him and preparing to leave.

At this time, he also saw Link who was watching, and immediately came over and said, "Hey, man, I didn't expect you to come here today, and it seems that the harvest is very good." ”

Apparently he saw the chips in Link's hand, and Link shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe it's the time of good luck today, and my harvest is good." ”

"Let's go have a drink." Tom took the initiative to say that he had only played two games with Link before, but Link's level was very high, which impressed him, and he was in a good mood because he had just won at this time.

Just as Link was about to answer, a man walked over and said, "Mr. Dewan, my boss wants to meet with you." ”

Seeing this person coming, Link frowned slightly, and the experience and intuition gained from many missions told him that most of the people in front of him were not serious businessmen, so he said, "I still have some things, you should be busy first." ”

"Okay." Tom and Link nodded at each other, and without much thought, they went to deal with the man.

Swapping chips for money, Link thought about it and went straight to another casino, although it was already early in the morning, but the casinos in Las Vegas were open all night.

Relying on the previously calculated data, Link also collected more than a million dollars at the roulette table of another large casino before returning to the hotel to rest.

The next day, Link went to several good casinos in quick succession, all of which made a lot of money, and in the evening, shortly after returning to the hotel, someone knocked on the room door.

"Hello, Mr. Link." A middle-aged man in a well-dressed suit with combed hair stood at the door and said to Link:

"I'm the manager of the casino, and we hope you don't get involved in a project with a bookmaker in Las Vegas in the future."
