Shao Xi knew that all the so-called gambling techniques in this world were just means of cheating, so he couldn't help but ask Lao Wu in a low voice: "What you just told me is not a means to take the initiative to win money, do you have any way to make me win if I want to?" ”

Lao Wu looked at Shao Xi with some surprise, and warned him in a low voice: "If you are not completely sure, don't cheat on the gambling table, otherwise if you are caught, you will cause trouble for yourself."

"Although you have martial arts, ordinary people can't get close to you, but you have to know who these people who run gambling houses, although they may not win against you, but they will stare at you day and night, making your bedroom uneasy.

"As the saying goes, tigers have a nap time, and once they catch the gap where you are lax, they will attack you and annoy you to death."

Of course, Shao Xi knew what it would be if he was found out by the other party if he used cheating methods in the gambling house, but now that he was clearly challenged, if he refused, he would seem to be a little weak-hearted.

But if you really want to gamble with others, you will definitely lose these two times, and admitting cowardice at this time is really not Shao Xi's style.

Shao Xi touched his chin and thought about it, arched his hand to the shopkeeper of the gambling house and said, "I don't think it's better than this!" Since the shopkeeper is interested in betting with the next one, we might as well play bigger. ”

When the shopkeeper heard Shao Xi say that he wanted to play bigger, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Just now, the dealer told him that the old man had been using the dealer to cheat to win money, and he looked like an expert, so he had the idea of challenging Shao Xi.

He wanted to know where the hell this group came from today. How capable is it?

This is not because of how much money Shao Xi and the others won from the gambling house, but because they are afraid that Shao Xi and the others are colleagues from other gambling houses who invited him to find out.

If he masters the law of winning money with him, his gambling house will definitely be in trouble if he wants to open it in the future.

It is said that peers are enemies, and it has long been commonplace for gambling houses to tear each other down.

It is not unheard of that this kind of thing has happened before that they send people to each other's gambling houses to find out the details of each other, and even send some gambling masters to each other's gambling houses to win large sums of money.

Of course, the matter between gambling houses should be solved by gambling, and usually when they encounter such people, they will invite each other to gamble, so that the other party can retreat from the difficulty.

The shopkeeper of the gambling house is naturally a gambling master, and all kinds of methods are endless, and he can't do this kind of business without real skills.

Today, the shopkeeper of this gambling house regards Shao Xi and others as people who have come to investigate the details, so the shopkeeper wants to let him know through the bet with Shao Xi that he should not have too many ideas in his gambling house.

It's okay to win some money and go, don't come back and look for trouble in the future.

Shao Xi doesn't understand what is in it, but Lao Wu does!

At this time, Lao Wu had already seen the other party's intentions, and originally wanted to remind Shao Xi to say a few kind words to the other party and forget about the matter, but before he could remind him, Shao Xi actually offered to play big.

Shao Xi's move not only stunned the shopkeeper of the gambling house, but Lao Wu was also stunned at this moment, saying that he was too weak to do it just now, why did he suddenly have confidence at this time?

According to Shao Xi's usual style of acting, he would never be impulsive enough to gamble on luck with the other party, because the other party himself is a master of gambling, and there is no luck at all in front of this kind of person.

Didn't this kid think of a solution?

Now that Shao Xi's words have been spoken, Lao Wu can't say anything more at this time, so he can only wait and see what happens.

When the shopkeeper of the gambling house saw Shao Xi say this, he was even more sure that several of them came for a purpose.

So he asked with interest: "This guest is really not an ordinary person, since you want to play bigger, then please follow me to the back!" It was quieter there and no one came to disturb us. ”

Who knew that Shao Xi waved his hand and refused his invitation, but said to him: "The shopkeeper laughed, how dare you bet with the shopkeeper on this gambling table when you first arrive in your place?" Since it's a gamble, then we might as well bet on luck. ”

When the shopkeeper heard that Shao Xi didn't want to fight directly with him, because the comparison between the two sides on the gambling table was who cheated without being caught?

It seems that these people are not confident in their gambling skills, and even said that they want to bet their luck with themselves, but how can there be any luck in betting on this thing? How did he want to gamble his luck with himself?

"I wonder how this distinguished guest wants to gamble? As the shopkeeper of this gambling house, I naturally have to accompany him. ”

Shao Xi raised his finger and pointed to the board that was already hanging in the center of the gambling hall at this time, with various odds on the palace horse racing written on it.

"Let's just bet on this, I will bet on a single game, a consecutive game, and a total of 100 gold, a single game bet 100 gold, a consecutive game bet 500 gold, a total of 900 gold.

"If I win all, the shopkeeper will not only pay me double, but even the total payout will be two hundred.

"If any of them I don't bet on, not only will all the bets be doubled to the shopkeeper, but I will also give another 1,000 gold, I don't know what the shopkeeper thinks?"

It can only be said that Shao Xi is really wealthy, even if he loses, he will only lose 1,800 gold, plus the additional 1,000 gold, a total of 2,800 gold.

For today's Shao Xi, although it is a pity to lose this money, it is definitely not distressing.

But if you win, it's different, according to the double payout, you can win 200 gold in each game in a single game, and 600 gold in three games.

Originally, he only won 2,500 gold, but now it has become 5,000 gold.

The total winner is 200 gold, and the total is 5,800 gold.

The most ruthless thing is that the one loss of one hundred has become one loss of two hundred, that is, the total amount of Shao Xi's bet is multiplied by two hundred, which is a very terrifying number, there are 180,000 gold, and the total amount won is 185,800 gold.

These gold are converted into silver taels to be 1,858,000 taels, and for this gambling house, this gambling is no longer about money, but about gambling net worth.

If Shao Xi wins, the shopkeeper of this gambling house will not only go bankrupt and lose all his property to Shao Xi, but even this gambling house will have to be owned by Shao Xi, which may not be enough to compensate.

When the shopkeeper heard Shao Xi's gambling method, he was stunned, he didn't know how to settle accounts!

If he loses the bet, the foundation he has laid in the ancient city of Loulan over the years will be gone, he didn't expect Shao Xi to be so ruthless.

This made him even more convinced that Shao Xi must be a master who was invited by a gambling house for a lot of money, and wanted to take this opportunity to swallow his entire net worth.

If this is a normal person, who would gamble with Shao Xi?

But man is a very strange thing, and his greed surpasses that of all other creatures in the world.

Although once he loses, he will lose all his net worth, but at the same time, he is also worried that if he wins, he will be able to win 2,800 gold from Shao Xi's hands, which is 28,000 taels of silver!

The main reason why the shopkeeper of the gambling house moved his mind was because the rules of betting on horses were designed by them to be very disgusting.

Originally, the odds set by this betting horse were to attract more people to bet, and the probability of winning between the single game and the total winner and the gambler was half of the bettors, and the biggest trap was actually in the design of the consecutive game.

Many gamblers may bet on a single game or on the overall win, but most of them will definitely fold on the consecutive game, because no one will know which horse between the king of Loulan and the Western envoys will win? What is the order of victory and defeat?

For example, someone bets on winning and losing, some people bet on winning or losing, and another person bets on winning or losing, but if the final result is to win or lose, or win or lose, then all the bets placed by the gambler will be lost.

Only by making a complete bet on the order of victory and defeat can you get that five times the bet, but the probability of this complete bet is actually not high.

The gambling house designed this kind of continuous gambling method, in fact, is intended to arouse the greed of gamblers, one to five odds is still very tempting for many people, all thinking that as long as the bet on three games can get five times the payout.

It is not excluded that some of them may bet on it, but more people will lose their money.

Gamblers are always afraid of missing the opportunity, and if they win a single game they bet on, and they will regret it if they don't bet on a single game.

Therefore, there are few bettors who only bet on a single game or only on the total winner or loser, and generally bet on all the places that can be bet.

In this way, although the loser may win back some of his capital in a single game and the overall win, he will basically lose his money in a single game.

And the odds of consecutive games are the highest, and human greed will motivate gamblers to bet bigger on it.

I have to say that the scythe of the casino is indeed very sharp, and it is really merciless to cut these leeks from gamblers, but this kind of opportunity is only once a year.

Neither gambling houses nor gamblers want to miss this opportunity, and some people will even gamble on this once a year Marseille.

Therefore, the gambling house will have a large income every year, and many people will go bankrupt every year.

It is precisely because the rules are designed in such a way that it is more beneficial to the gambling house, so the shopkeeper of the gambling house is also greedy like a gambler.

He always felt that this rule was obviously beneficial to the gambling house, Shao Xi had almost no chance of winning, and if he missed the two thousand eight hundred gold because he was afraid of losing, he was really unwilling.

You must know that in Marseille in previous years, the gambling money of all gamblers did not add up so much, and this year, Shao Xi appeared, and a person made such a heavy bet, if he did not seize this opportunity, it would be equivalent to losing a chance to make a fortune.

The same is greedy, gamblers are greedy for odds, and gamblers are greedy for probability.

The shopkeeper lowered his head and pondered, Shao Xi knew that he was settling accounts in his mind at this moment!

Calculate how much you can win, how much you will lose, what is the probability of winning, and what is the probability of losing, and then weigh whether you want to take Shao Xi's bet.

Shao Xi was not in a hurry, just looked at the board full of horse racing odds casually.

Lao Wu gently pulled Shao Xi on the side, and asked in a low voice: "Your kid reacts quite quickly, but how did you think of betting this with him?" ”

Shao Xi showed a helpless expression.

"If I don't bet on him, what else can I bet on? I won't do anything else! The bigger the bet I bet on him, the more he will lose if he wins.

"If he agrees, then bet with him, and if he refuses if he thinks it's not worth it, we'll be able to get out.

"As for this horse bet, we originally had a plan, but we didn't want to bet double, if I can enter the palace smoothly tomorrow, wouldn't he be doubling the money to me?"

Hearing Shao Xi say this, Lao Wu almost laughed out loud, this stinky boy had this plan before, but now the shopkeeper bumped into him head-on, and I am afraid that he will have to meet Shao Xi here and break the blood.

Originally, the shopkeeper could face the gamble with Shao Xi on the gambling table, but Shao Xi offered a very tempting condition.

Although on the surface, it seems that Shao Xi's probability of winning this bet is not large, but in fact, as long as Shao Xi enters the palace tomorrow and carries out his plan, then the winning rate is almost one hundred percent.

But the shopkeeper didn't know this, and he was still wondering if it was worth the risk, and the amount of money involved this time was huge, so it was no wonder that he hesitated.

Just a moment later, the shopkeeper of the gambling house seemed to have made a decision, and said to Shao Xi with a smile: "Since the guest is interested, we will bet on this, but if the guest loses, can the extra thousand gold you add also be doubled." ”

Shao Xi listened, good guy! You're really greedy! I guess I think it's not worth taking this risk with 2,800 gold, so I want to add more weight to myself.

Since you are so greedy, the master will not have any psychological burden, see if I don't cheat you into bankruptcy and live on the streets.

Thinking of this, Shao Xi nodded very happily and said: "Yes, this is very interesting, all the bets will be doubled at this time, if I lose, I will give an additional two thousand gold, and lose to the shopkeeper three thousand eight hundred gold." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his face immediately showed joy.

He didn't expect Shao Xi to be so arrogant, although he also had doubts about Shao Xi's performance in his heart, but at present, he was calm on weekdays, but he was also a little hot-headed at this time.

Thinking that the horse race was carried out in the palace, these people looked like outsiders, and it was impossible for them to enter the palace to influence the outcome of the horse race.

In this case, placing such a heavy bet is simply self-defeating, you must know that both sides bet on Shao Xi to bet all the bets, even if there is a single game missed or the total winner is wrong, Shao Xi will double all the bets.

Not to mention whether the young man in front of him can get so much money, it will be even more difficult for him to win this bet.

"Since you and I have no objections, then we will make a document to avoid any trouble in the future."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper of the gambling house beckoned the guy to bring pen and ink, wrote down the relevant matters, and then signed and drew the pledge.

Shao Xi took out the silver ticket from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper, and the gambling house shopkeeper took the silver ticket and looked at it and said to Shao Xi: "Guest, what you gave me is the silver ticket of the Central Plains!" We don't use this thing. ”
