Green-eyed ** is a steady and cheerful young man, no, I don't mistake the adjective, there is such a kind of person, he can make people feel that he is trustworthy and reliable, and make people feel close and comfortable, and with him, everyone will feel relaxed and brisk--his demeanor, there is never a trace of impetuousness and rashness, and his words have never carried a star of arrogance or deliberately perfunctory, even at this age he has become one of the casino owner's deputies--he is only twenty-five years old, The performance is sleek and introverted, delicate and meticulous, but it seems that only middle-aged people in their forties and fifties have it. His uncle was one of the city councilors of Las Vegas, he didn't like to go to school, so he got here, he quickly liked it and fell in love with it, Las Vegas was like water to him, and his short part-time job became an official job after half a year. Battier worked as a waitress at a bar, then as a dealer, then as a bookmaker and dealer, and then for a while as a money carrier (who paid some of his cash dividends directly to shareholders for tax evasion) and as a multinational debt collector (who traveled to other countries to collect gambling debts owed by gamblers, and generally carried large amounts of cash to cross the border, which was very dangerous...... and Ruthless, Sean. When Battier found out about this, he immediately promoted him, and now he has been in the position of deputy for more than a year, and in the first six months he has attracted no less than five million new business for the Paradise Palace Casino, and more than half a dozen "important people" (more than 10 million yuan in the casino's coffers), including even the dictator of a small remote country and his wife.

In entertaining Beelzebub and Sasha, he did not foolishly regard them as two real unsophisticated fourteen-year-old boys, nor did he greet them as high-rollers with great fanfare, as some people do, but he was very natural and polite, kind and generous, with a little affection and caution, like the fox sitting under the apple tree.

**When he handed the boy two bags of black five-dollar chips, he noticed that they were looking at him. It's not the usual kind of looking, but "observing" with great interest.

"Is there something I don't know about?" He pretended to be serious and lowered his voice: "Okay, if it's something on your face, blink your eyes, and if your pants aren't zipped, blink twice." ”

The two boys smiled mysteriously, and at this point it was clear that their previous three years of inseparability had not been in vain, and the smiles on their faces looked the same even at the same angle—with a little hatefulness. Beelzebub pinched Sasha's fingers. He knew that Sasha had the same thoughts as him, and that green eyes interested them more than roulette and blackjack - as a deputy, ** certainly had good looks, but the people who liked him were not just for that, "he was almost as likable as a banknote." Beelzebub said, Sasha was sure of this, and they kept greeting him along the way. Of course, there is some flattery and flattery, but more of it comes from the heart and real feelings: "I am full of joy when I see him. That's how these people interpret it.

"No, there's nothing wrong with that, you're just perfect." Sasha said sweetly and earnestly, and Beelzebub stuck out his tongue to himself. With a movement of his shoulders, he lifted the bag. The bag contained arguably the penultimate chips in the Heavenly Palace (the cheapest chips were two dollars each), but judging by their weight and volume, there were at least a thousand dollars in them.

"This is for you to play slot Macs." Say, he personally led them to a couple of brand-new machines with bells and whistles.

"I thought these machines could be used for coins." Beelzebub tried to drop the chips, pulled the pole, and the machine spun around, first an orange, then a banana, and then a banana, which was a pity. The machine spit out a two-dollar chip that is white and "colored".

"Old-fashioned machines do," said **, "but they're too easy to be manipulated, and some people throw counterfeit coins into them—although this can be identified and controlled with a scraper, but the device is too easy to get stuck, and most casinos stop scrapers to avoid frequent glitches—the problem is, so that someone can do something on it, look," he pointed to the two boys, "and they'll find a good spot." Make a hole in the machine and pull away the pin that should have been pushed away by the coin, so that the machine will assume that they have invested the money. They can play again and again, and there is no profit. But if it's a modern machine, it won't work. Because their internal structure and program are completely stack-only, and the chips in the casino are electronically numbered, even if you can pry the machine open, there is no continuous input of chips, and the wheels responsible for running will still remain motionless. ”

"I've heard of another way," said Beelzebub, "and if you put a stainless steel funnel against the outlet, the shrapnel that would have leaked only a few small corners will be forced open, and the coin will continue to flow down until all the coins in the machine are gone." He reached out and 'touched' 'touched' the slot.

"That was five or six years ago," ** said nonchalantly: "The new machine's outlet is tilted, and the clip at the end has an automatic alarm function, and if its work is affected, someone will come and check it immediately." ”

Sasha threw a black "color" chip, and the patterns in the three small grids immediately rolled dazzlingly, and the three grids stopped at different times, the grid from the left hand stopped first, and an apple slowly "pressed" close to the bottom line, and it seemed to stop, but for some reason it sank down a square again, turning into a banana, and the middle grid then stopped, oranges, and the third grid was also oranges.

"It's a shame." ** said: "It's almost a jack of the box." Jack Po is a jargon that means "single jackpot", which means that a third of the chips accumulated by the previous customer will go to your pocket.

"What's the deal with two hundred machines in one?"

"No one knows when or where it will appear," ** gestured to the cluster of machines distributed around half of the hall: "Every one of them is possible, a customer walks in, he throws his chips, pulls the pole, and the machine turns, well, he gets three apples, which is the so-called stand-alone jack treasure, but if he finds that it is not just the one in front of him, but the two hundred machines around him are spitting chips together, then he has really made a fortune - the first lucky person is like a little rabbit when he wins the lottery, He thought the machine was broken, or something else, and when the manager invited him to the office to wait for the chips to be settled, he was so frightened that he "peed" his pants. ”

Beelzebra pulled the pole, and this time he was lucky, two apples, and he got two white chips. He happily continued to throw chips, pull the lever, for a long and short time, and in a short time, he lost a small part of the capital he had just won and his original capital.

He played with the machines one by one, only once or twice each, and so did Sasha, patiently following them, carrying their pockets for them.

"I've heard my uncles say," said Beelzebub, as he pulled the pole nonchalantly, "every slot machine is processed," he said in a quiet voice, and they were in the last two rows, and the nearest gambler was separated by nearly ten machines. "They put a metal clip on the turntable, which is the one close to the apple pattern, so whenever the turntable is about to turn the apple, you can see that it hesitates for a long time before suddenly turning over, compared to the other turntables, the pattern in place is much more refreshing and neat - they usually arrange it in the first one, because the second one will make people think that the machine is in bad luck, and the third one will be doubly disappointing, but if the first one is 'almost' an apple, and the last two are also apples, A lot of people think that this machine is easy to 'jack treasure' - because people always think that the first turntable is more likely to spin an apple than the last two. ”

"The inherent notion of human beings, they always feel that the first one has a natural advantage." Sasha said: "Let's go inside, Beelzebub, don't verify it, the Palace of Heaven is the same as any other casino in this regard, and the machine near the door has a low win rate." ”

"Because this is mostly the place where the departing guests take out a few odd chips and make a final fight, if they win, they will go straight to the front of the exchange table to exchange the chips for money, go out to buy something good or have a good meal, and few people will be willing to go back and gamble again." ** said: "Old gamblers will go inside." ”

"The machine inside has a bigger chance of winning?" Beelzebub stopped in front of a machine, threw a chip in his hand, pulled down the pole, the wheel turned, three fruits, none of them the same, this time he lost everything.

"It's hard to say," said Sasha, "since you can think of it." ”

"We do put one or two easy-to-treasure machines in it, but again, only a handful of guests can find it by chance, and with the patience and enough money," said happily, "Since they've already shelled out a lot of money in front, it's not a big deal for us to return later." ”

"Like this?" Beelzebub's machine suddenly played a loud and passionate music, mixed with the sound of enlarged, jingling coins, and multicolored lights, the overhead lights that emitted these brilliant lights spun like police lights, and on the multicolored screens, three apples were parked in the lattice of the turntable, and black chips flowed out of the outlets, filled the coin cups, and landed on the carpet.

"Oh, lucky," ** exclaimed gleefully, "you have a lucky hand, Mr. Bisandi, an out-and-out Jack Po!" ”

"Then I'll try it too." After Sasha waited for the machine to be completely quiet, he also went to cast a chip, he pulled the pole, and the wheel began to turn.

The summoned attendants were bending down to help Beelzebub pick up the chips that had fallen everywhere, and when they heard the music, they thought it was an auditory hallucination caused by the previous sound.

The second Jack Po. On the same machine. A 1 in 8,000 probability.
