Chapter 6: Ten Gambles and Nine Frauds
Gamblers in this world are almost the same, everyone feels that their luck is the best, even if there are a few misses, he will believe that the next hand can bring back the capital, even the principal with interest. So the next hand must be a little more than the previous one. If you win a few in a row, you can't stop it, but you will feel that today's luck is too good, and you have to take advantage of the victory to chase, so the final winner in the casino is definitely the banker.
Gambling is originally a gamble on luck in human nature and the psychology of not admitting defeat!
For example, when playing dice to bet on odds and doubles, if you have opened six or seven singles, you will definitely think that the probability of opening a double will be greater and greater, and then you will bet more on the double side, as everyone knows, the probability of opening a point is the same as that of odd and even, if you have the money to gamble all the time, bet countless times, and finally you will find that the odd and even numbers will always be half and half of the chance, that is, each hand, you are not absolutely sure. But the dealer has, the person who wins, will only think about winning more, the person who loses, thinking about the next one, and the money won is spent very quickly, and the place to spend money in the casino is just enough, and finally everyone's money is like water slowly flowing into the banker's purse.
If you are really lucky, and you gamble big, and you keep winning, then others will find ways to make your luck not so good, these methods, commonly known as out of thousands.
Thousands of people are a kind of technical work, the hands must be fast and skillful, bold and careful, and most importantly, talented. These techniques are sometimes even more difficult to practice than a martial art. Therefore, in the gambling industry, there is a saying that has been passed down for thousands of years: ten gambles and nine frauds!
Most of the words that can be passed down for thousands of years are true!
Both crickets have names, and their names are written on two delicate-looking wooden plaques, one on each side.
The cricket in front of Sikong Jieyue is called "General", and the cricket opposite is called "Iron King Kong". There was a young man standing on the side of "Iron King Kong", who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, who was handsome and handsome and dignified, and seemed to be as good as Ding Xiaodao in terms of appearance. I saw that he looked gorgeous and graceful in a purple brocade robe, with a dark green belt, and a purple gem embedded in the belt, a white mink fur on the outside, and a purple and gold crown on his head. It makes people dare not underestimate him. It really responds to the old saying: Mo Shangren is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world! Even Ding Xiaodao seemed to be stunned.
The beautiful boy has lost four handfuls, Sikong Picking Moon has won four in a row, the "General" has called once first, but the "Iron King Kong" has been called three times, and a few gamblers on the side have already lost, and a few are still hesitating how to bet.
Only the young man's face did not change, and he did not even shed a drop of sweat. Although he has lost four in a row, everyone seems to still believe him, which one he bets, others will follow which one, at this time they have the same hatred, and they wish they would win the chips in front of Sikong Jieyue cleanly. Even the people on the side who had lost cleanly were secretly cheering for him in their hearts. It seems that if this young man wins the money of Sikong Yue, it will be like avenging them and getting angry. It's better to win even his suit and burn it on fire, because it looks too glamorous.
In fact, it is the person who has won all their money.
The young man's bets were surprisingly large, each bet was 20,000 taels of chips, but unfortunately he only had 20,000 taels of chips left on the table, and it seemed impossible to get them back. I saw that he had pushed the chips on the table to the side of "Iron King Kong", took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, and was about to bet all on "Iron King Kong".
He first bet on "Iron King Kong", but the "General" called once, and then he bet on three "Generals", but "Iron King Kong" called three times in a row, it seems that tonight's "Iron King Kong" has a much bigger chance of winning, so he plans to bet on "Iron King Kong" in the last one.
The people watching on the side couldn't hold back for a long time, and the crowd was excited. After all, this kind of gambling is not encountered every day, and some have been quietly swallowing their saliva, thinking: If I win this bet, I will not have to worry about eating and drinking in this life.
"Slow!" A hand reached out from the stabbing and held the hand that the boy was about to place a bet on. Ding Xiaodao smiled at the young man and said: "Little brother, I'll bet on you for this one, if you lose, it's mine, if you win, you can invite me to a drink, how about it?" Then he put his head to the young man's ear and whispered, "You're not sure anyway, are you?" ”
The young man shrank his hand, stared at Ding Xiaodao for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Even if you lose, I will invite you to drink!" ”
Ding Xiaodao's gaze was as determined as his tone.
Sikong Jieyue glared at Ding Xiaodao and said: "Do you like to drink very much, you must know that you have to use silver to buy good wine, if you accidentally lose the silver, you won't be able to drink it." ”
Ding Xiaodao looked back at him and said, "If you lose this one, I will also invite you to drink, drink the best daughter red." In addition, I bet on all the chips on your table, except for bets placed by others, and I will cover the rest of your table. After speaking, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom, and together with the young man's, he bet on the "General" sign.
"Hahaha, good, good, good boy, good breath!" Sikong picked the moon and said a few good words, but he seemed to be extremely angry, and he laughed instead of being angry.
The gamblers next to him were stunned, they had never seen a madman like Ding Xiaodao, looking at the silver ticket in the young man's hand, I am afraid that it will not be less than 100,000 taels, he actually took this risk for others, but the price was only a meal of wine. But this young man seemed to have gone crazy, not only did he take advantage of this, but in case he lost, he promised to invite a madman like Ding Xiaodao to drink. Although this madman doesn't look like a begging for food, he doesn't look like a character who can take out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver tickets at any time. Could it be that madness is contagious?
Although the gamblers muttered in their hearts, they were still ready to bet with Ding Xiaodao. Anyway, I'm not sure, I think that people can lose hundreds of thousands of taels of silver tickets, so why can't we lose a little bit.
The most important thing is that they have been betting with the teenager, and everyone has formed a kind of hatred in their hearts. All they wanted in their hearts was to win the guy on the other side who was dressed like a god of wealth, a skinny god of wealth.
So as soon as Ding Xiaodao made a bet, they followed suit. No one bet on "Iron King Kong".
Sikong Jieyue stared at the chips and silver tickets on the table, took a breath and said, "Okay, I'll take it!" ”
The bet began, and everyone held their breath and fell silent.
At the beginning of the bet, according to the rules, no one can speak, walk, touch the table and the box, and in any way lure and stimulate the crickets in the box.
Everyone stared at the box without blinking, staring at the two crickets in the box, but Sikong Jieyue stared at Ding Xiaodao, but Ding Xiaodao stared at the lantern behind Sikong Jieyue, the young man didn't even look at the crickets now, and the two big eyes looked at Ding Xiaodao without blinking.
After touching about half a pillar of incense, Sikong Jieyue and Ding Xiaodao suddenly moved at the same time, but they only slightly sideways their bodies, and their feet did not move.
The lantern behind Sikong Jieyue suddenly dimmed and went out, and Sikong Jieyue's face was shocked, but it was too late.
"Boom, boom......, boom," a cricket began to cry, and in the empty and silent hall, the voice was unusually pleasant. The cricket that screamed first was the "general" in front of Sikong Jieyue.
"You've lost!" Ding Xiaodao hugged his chest with both hands and smiled.
"Wow yes...... Really won, won! The gamblers finally burst into cheers.
Sikong Jieyue stared at Ding Xiaodao for a long time, and muttered in his mouth: "Good boy, you really have you, you actually calculated that the light behind me went out first, haha, Lao Tzu lost unjustly, unjustly......" He didn't even look at the pile of silver tickets on the table.
Ding Xiaodao was trying to chase out, but the gamblers next to him were waiting for the dealer in the casino to lose money, the crowd was surging, and he couldn't move, the young man and he were squeezed together and couldn't move, the young man seemed to blush, looked up at Ding Xiaodao and smiled: "You said I would invite you to drink if you won, and now you can't drink it, but you have to tell me, how did you win." ”
Ding Xiaodao smiled bitterly: "As long as I can leave here immediately, I am willing to drink vinegar ......"
