Chapter 195: The Right Conclusion About the Outcome of the Game
Bloodflower and severed fingers.
Bad scene.
The whole space is filled with madness.
Eric put his hand over Arvin's face, and watched intently as it all happened.
Although the result of this is that anger and reason compete to torment his nerves. But he knew he had to, and he had to keep it in his mind.
The only thing Eric was thankful for was that he had Newsom take the Bell out before the dealer could activate the props. Otherwise, the bear doesn't know what to do.
Around, some of the guests cheered. Of course, some people vomited and fled the door. As the manager in charge of the challenge game said, the show is really not for everyone.
The hunk duo who were still there before also disappeared from the scene at some point. Obviously, they are not the ones who will be able to enjoy it.
In fact, while everyone was still enjoying the bloody aftertaste, the dealer on the stage seemed to be very dissatisfied with the link just now.
Because Io didn't let out the screams he expected. On the contrary, he barely made a sound after a muffled snort, and his endurance was undoubtedly far beyond that of ordinary people.
"Next round!"
The dealer's tone seemed to be a little impatient. Soon, he dealt the cards again.
The new game will be about the second finger.
It was only then that Arwen pulled down the hand that Eric had used to block his vision, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes.
His sensibility made Eric feel both relieved and saddened at the same time.
The line of sight turns to the field. The frightened leprechaun trembled and flew back to his opponent's side, waiting for a peek.
Second inning.
This time, Io got an 8 face up and a 9 face down, for a total of 17 points. Subtle points, neither low nor high.
Your opponent's face card is a jack, which represents 10 points.
After peeking at it, the leprechaun flew back to Io and told him the opponent's hidden card points.
10 o'clock.
This means that the opponent's points are 10 + 10 = 20 points. And Io himself only has 17 points. If he didn't play cards, he would undoubtedly lose the game. However, if you hit again with 17 points, there is a high probability that you will bust because you have more than 21 points. This is common sense in the game of 21 points.
However, knowing that his opponent was 20 points, Io had no choice but to lose without a hand.
So, the dealer sent the "verdict" to Io.
The results are not surprising.
A 6.
Guilty.
Io conceded defeat in a showdown. Counting this time, he has already lost two games in a row.
This result did not satisfy the gamblers enough. Because the probability of one person losing in a row is smaller, some people bet on Io to win.
However, losing money obviously does not affect their interest in appreciating the punishment after the game.
“...... Eric. Io has lost two in a row. Wouldn't using goblins to cheat increase the odds of winning, why doesn't it seem to be completely useless?"
Arwen couldn't help it and asked Eric with a little crying.
This left Eric speechless.
Some of the usual and obvious truths don't seem to apply to the fifth floor of the Gold Coast VIP Level.
Is Io's luck really that bad?
I'm afraid you can only know if you continue to confirm it in the next game with these eyes.
......
......
Three, four, or five games are fleeting.
As it turned out, Io's luck was indeed very bad, and it was ridiculously bad - in five games, Ioli lost five fingers on the ground. So the game ended with the shortest number of rounds.
Eric believed that no one could have guessed the outcome. This accident itself is extremely unlikely, but it does happen.
Although it's really hard to believe that it's just pure probability.
What affects the probability of a game is cheating.
Io's opponent cheating? Apparently not. In fact, Eric kept the Alpha Eye open throughout their gameplay. It's proof enough that there isn't any magic in the game.
And under such extreme conditions, Io's opponents did not have any ordinary means to cheat. Even Io, who found a special means to cheat, only indirectly affected the outcome of the game, and could not achieve the excellent result of winning five games in a row like the current one.
So, it turns out that it's really probability.
One in a million lucky people.
Off the field, Yawen's face turned pale. Eric held him tightly in his arms, hoping to give him little comfort.
Incidentally, the dignitaries in attendance thought they were the ones who needed to be comforted more.
Because no one bet on the whole thing, almost all the guests present lost money. After having his fingers cut off, Io's non-screaming behavior failed to make the VIPs addicted.
As a result, whether it is a viewing program or a gambling project, the experience it brings is undoubtedly extremely poor.
Feeling the many hostile eyes, the dealer regained his role as the casino administrator shortly after the game ended, and he stood up to apologize to everyone. He also declared that he was responsible for not making a loud enough noise from the "death row prisoner" who had just played the game.
At the same time, because the casino adheres to the principle of customer first, he promised to refund the full amount of the lost bets of the VIPs. also repeatedly guaranteed that the next show would be exciting enough.
After listening to this speech full of sincerity, the VIPs put away their anger and smiled.
It was from these words that Eric smelled something strange.
No, the previous conclusions were wrong!
Here's the problem: the customer comes first.
Just now, the manager of the Gold Coast said that he would refund the money of all the guests. On the face of it, it does seem to be in line with this purpose. However, the fifth floor of the casino should be mainly engaged in program content, not gambling.
In order for the guests to fully enjoy the bitter howl, the one who loses should be the one who screams the worst.
If you really care about the customer first, then it is impossible for a guy who can't scream to lose five games in a row!
If Eric were the manager, he would have manipulated the outcome of the game in the rest of the game to make the other guy who was more likely to scream lose while Io couldn't hold back his screams.
At the same time, it is natural that there is no need to return the bet money to the guests later. Don't forget that making a profit is what a casino is all about. This is harmless for managers. As a dealer, he can easily do all this with some special shuffling techniques.
But don't say that the manager will not do anything for the fairness of the game. Eric doesn't believe that these old birds don't know what is better to do.
But he didn't choose to do so.
Is he a fool?
No.
There was only one answer: he chose to let Io lose five games in a row.
So what kind of bullshit lucky one in a million? And the cheater wasn't the two players in the game, but the dealer! The manager of the Gold Coast!
Now, then, there is only one question in front of Eric.
Why did he do it?
