Chapter 463
Although Loren pretends to be very confident, in fact he is not very sure-it is better to say that he hates gambling behavior, whether in his previous life or... this life.
The reason is very simple, this is a purely luck behavior, the result is completely unpredictable; even if sufficient intelligence and information can be obtained, and after precise calculations, it is impossible to ensure 100% Success.
Therefore, there is only one way to win 100% at the gambling table...fraud.
But it is also very difficult to do this...From chips, gambling equipment, tables and chairs to every small object, all are provided here, and they are all very high-end and exquisite luxury items: Xiaoxiao The dice are also made of sterling silver, and the cards in the hands of the dealer are lined with gold powder. The imitation cost is very high.
"Is there anything you want to play, you are here for the first time after all, you will definitely be curious?"
Walking in the bustling hall, Lena in a black dress Still expressionless, not at all moved by the warm atmosphere around:
"Although it is only a casino, there are still plenty of places to play here... Anyway, the fun of you men will never be separated from it. Money and women."
Black-rimmed glasses shrugged: "Usually, the people playing in the hall are new foreigners, or guys who don’t have a lot of money in their pockets—usually, this It’s best to swindle people’s money."
"The real regulars are basically in the separate guest rooms on the upper floors; of course, even on the ground floor, there are a lot of things you can play, such as card games. Of."
Cards? If there are Hearthstone, Gwent, etc. here, I’m more confident...
When I hear the black hair wizard here, I can’t help but twitch my lips: “It sounds like you’re still a regular customer here. "
"Of course, otherwise, where do you think the two million debts come from?" The "black-rimmed glasses", who has always had no expression, suddenly snorted very self-deprecatingly:
"This thing, as long as I touch it once, I don't want to get rid of it."
"There is still a chance." Loren slightly smiled: "As long as you can make up your mind."
" It's really easy to say, but just now I accepted a bribe from Chairman Clermont." Lena completely remained unmoved: "Men... they are all dumb fools."
" You seem to have said something similar just now."
"Are there? I'll say it again if I have, you're used to it anyway."
"... "
At the end of the crowd is a huge round table with more than a dozen chairs around it; although it looks lively, there are very few people who actually sit down and play, mostly talking and laughing around. , Or pointing fingers to the gamblers sitting there, some people comment on it from time to time.
"It's roulette, and it’s usually played by foreign guests who come alone or just for fun, so roulette here is also the simplest." On the side, "Black-rimmed glasses" "Introduced by Loren.
There are forty numbers beside each seat next to the roulette wheel, which are divided into black and white according to the odd and even numbers, and below the numbers is the place to bet.
As Liya said, the rules of roulette here are very simple-first put a small oak ball on the roulette, there are a total of forty black and white on the roulette, marked with A small hole of numbers; players need to guess which small ball will fall into to guess the number of points, and can only bet one at a time.
According to the rules, it is also divided into two types: betting on black and white and pressing numbers: if no one is betting on the number, the person betting on black and white is considered a winner, the odds are one loses one, and the rest of the players are considered losers, and Need to pay a one-tenth of the rake, so the real result is a loss of nine-tenths;
But if someone bets on the numbers, no matter how much the rest of the players press, all counts as that person wins and loses The rate is one to ten.
"That is to say... as long as one person hits the number, everyone else loses?" Loren lightly said with a smile: "If this is the case, then buying black and white is not the chance of winning Bigger, won’t you offend others?"
"Don’t be whimsical, there is no such good thing."
lightly snorted, Lena pushed her glasses: "Even if it is The player who bet on black and white to win can only be won by the one who is closest to the number-how can a place like a casino be cheaper for you to take?"
Speaking of which, Lina couldn’t help being frowned. "Why don’t you really want to play roulette? This kind of pure luck game is almost the hardest one to win. There are hardly many things to deal with."
"Why not , Anyway, the capital is given by others, and we don’t need to feel distressed if we lose."
Loren shrugged indifferently, and gestured with the chips in the tray: "But as long as you bet once, thirty thousand It becomes three hundred thousand...you can immediately pay off the two hundred thousand usury of the'generous donation' Sir President!"
After all, the black hair wizard ignored this and always sneered at it. With his "black frame glasses", he pushed a chair away and sat down.
Just as he sat down, the gambling game had already begun-in order to ensure "fairness", a total of ten seconds from the beginning to the end, in the ten seconds before the roulette stopped spinning, the guests were all You can change or re-select bets at will.
Looking at the small oak ball jumping on the fast-spinning roulette, the black hair wizard slightly raised the corner of his mouth, picked up two chips, and placed them directly under the "Thirteen" without looking at them. .
The first game...Anyway, let's try the water first.
Although there are not many guests playing roulette, there are many onlookers...the moment the bet was placed, the black hair wizard heard a lot of taking pleasure in other people's behind him With misfortune’s laughter, there are still a lot of gazes on pointing fingers.
"Are you really an idiot?"
The "black-rimmed glasses" hardly missed any chance of hitting Loren, and the extremely flat voice came from the side: " Even if it’s the first time, can I trouble at least bet on a number with a higher probability?"
"Oh, is that so?" The disapproving black hair wizard tilted his head: "Then what if If it’s you, which number would you normally bet on?"
"Um...you really are an idiot."
Lina with a numb expression is nodded: "Look at that The style of the roulette wheel is different from the outside, right-although each grid seems to be the same size, the area on the disk is different, the wider it is outward, and the narrower it is in the middle. "
"In words that you can understand, the probability of the ball falling in the middle is relatively low, so the probability of the number above twenty-four on the periphery is higher-even if it is odd and even guessing, only Only those who are close to the numbers can win, idiot."
The black hair wizard was taken aback slightly, then turned his head to look towards the "black-rimmed glasses" beside him.
"Mr. Loren Torino, what is your expression?"
"Nothing, just suddenly understood two things." The wheel behind him is still spinning like crazy, Loren's The corners of her mouth raised slyly: "First, I start to understand a bit why you like gambling so much."
"Really?" Lena remained unmoved.
"It’s just a small oak ball. Every time it jumps, it pushes countless money. Once you succeed, you can get ten times the profit—the feeling of completely entrusting the result to fate without paying. It's no less than the moment of life and death in a fight, or the feeling when you are in contact with knowledge that has never been touched."
"This is the so-called'to give up but not to', right?"
p>
"Um...that's right."
She was still expressionless, but Lena's eyes dimmed: "It's like a warrior in a fight, a scholar who is hungry for knowledge... After entering it, you will never be able to get rid of it."
"Secondly, I finally figured out a misunderstanding—it was my mistake that I thought you were Brandon Desalion before. , Your heart is far less complicated."
Loren's expression became more and more playful, playing with a bargaining chip in his hand: "In comparison, a guy who is more similar to you...should be Isaac ·Grantham is right."
"Beyond ordinary human intelligence, unforgettable memory, indifferent to the eyes of others, and extremely obsessed with things in your heart...You are indeed not an ordinary person, Lena Desa Miss Leon."
The "black-rimmed glasses" was always expressionless, neither admitting nor vetoing.
"Five, four, three, two, one! place your bets and hands off the table!"
With the croupier’s shouts, the roulette stops spinning; the light oak The ball steadily fell into the small grid marked "Thirteen".
"At the end of this round, Your Excellency Loren Torino bet, you lose ten and win!"
Loren, who didn’t look back, took the chips from the dealer and smiled. Looking towards the expressionless Lena:
"Look, I have good luck."
