Chapter 52: Roulette Betting (Additional Chapter Seeking Recommendation Votes)

  The wheel typically has 37 or 38 numbers, and the croupier is responsible for spinning the wheel and throwing a ball onto it. The winning number is determined by where the ball lands on the wheel. The numbers on the wheel are colored red and black in an alternating pattern, but they are not arranged in numerical order.

  There are two common types of roulette wheels, the American wheel and the European wheel. The American wheel has 38 numbers, including 1 to 36, 0 and 00. The roulette wheel on a cruise ship is an American wheel.

  The wheel is a fascinating and highly stimulating game, consisting of a wheel, an ivory ball, and a betting table. The wheel rotates around the central axis and is divided into 38 narrow grooves. Thirty-six grooves are numbered from 1 to 36, with half being red and half black. The other two green grooves are marked as 0 and 00.

  Players can bet on a single number or a combination of numbers on the betting table. Different bets have different payout ratios, generally choosing red or black is 1:1, choosing odd or even is also 1:1, the more precise the bet, the higher the payout, for example, betting on 1 to 12 numbers separately is 1:2, if a single number is chosen, it's 1:35, two-number combination is 1:17, three-number combination is 1:11, and four-number combination is 1:8.

  Zhao Long walked over and looked again for a while. The people behind him didn't pay much attention, because Zhao Long had been looking like this for a long time.

  But this time Zhao Long made a move, directly putting 100,000 chips into the range of 19 to 36. As soon as Zhao Long put in the chips, the spirits of the people behind him were immediately lifted.

  "He has started betting, he has started betting." They hastily reported to their superiors.

  At this moment, Ouli was sitting there, leaning on the chair and drinking coffee. After staring for so long, he was a bit tired too.

  "From 19 to 36, the odds are one to one. His winning probability is forty-seven point three seven percent." Ouyang thought for a moment before saying this. As soon as he said it, someone immediately notified Zhuang He.

  Casinos can normally make money, but they also naturally have ways to manipulate, such as when to let people win and when to lose. After Ou Li's order went down, Zhuang He had already made his move.

  Just as his marble was about to be released, Zhao Long's hand suddenly moved and he placed two 10,000 yuan chips on number 36 just as the wheel started spinning.

  With Zhao Long's current eyesight, he can only roughly see that it should be in the 19th to 36th region. But Lao Shi is different, directly betting on a single number.

  The little ball spins, everyone looks at the little ball, sees the little ball spin, gradually stops, and gradually enters a region. Some people start cheering, while others curse. Knowing that the little ball has stopped, it is exactly number 36.

  "When... when... when..." The voice wasn't very loud, a crisp sound, but the flashing of the light on number 36's single digit made everyone's spirits stir.

  "No. 36, got it! Someone actually bet on single No. 1 and won, with a payout of 35 times! Who placed this bet?"

  "My god, how did I miss it just now?"

  "Too much! Who did this?"

  …………

  "Here..." Zhao Long smiled faintly and raised his hand. The pale-faced Zhuang He pushed over the 800,000 yuan he had lost to Zhao Long.

  At this time, Zhang Lei's heart was racing, and it was racing because his heartbeat had already exceeded the normal frequency. It was like someone who had just finished running a hundred meters, with rapid palpitations. The casino lent him another 500,000 yuan, and he also borrowed 1.5 million yuan from the usurer. Although he had lost a lot earlier, those people knew something about his situation too. Even if he lost tens of millions, as long as they pressed him hard, he could still pay back several hundred thousand.

  Just now he didn't dare to put 200,000 at once, and pressed 100,000. At this time, it has become 200,000. Zhang Lei was so excited because Zhao Long not only won the bet of one-to-one odds, but also won the bet of one-to-thirty-five odds, which is too incredible.

  "Director, shall we go on stage..." The two masters who had been following Zhao Long's back were somewhat anxious, because Zhao Long's move was too brilliant.

  "Take another look." Ouli also sat up straight and ordered his subordinate beside him: "Play back the previous scene in slow motion, I'll take a look."

  At this time, the second round has begun. Zhao Long directly pressed 1 to 12 numbers, which is a 1:2 payout. Just as Ouyang was about to slow down the shot again, Zhao Long's hand moved quickly, and at the last moment, he threw one hundred thousand yuan into the area of number 11.

  This hall generally has a limited bet, like this roulette here, the single number is allowed to bet up to one million, two or three numbers combination is limited to twenty million, one-to-two odds is limited to fifty million, and one-to-one area is limited to one hundred million. Otherwise, if a high roller suddenly appears and bets tens of millions on a single number before the casino can react, the casino will be in trouble.

  In this way, the casino was given a reaction time. At this moment, Zhao Long directly pushed 500,000 to the area of 13-24, pressed 100,000 on No. 16, and also pressed 100,000 on a combination of four numbers including No. 16.

  Because Zhao Long was the last one to be pressed as No. 16, others simply couldn't keep up, but this time, apart from Zhang Wei, many people followed Zhao Long's footsteps.

  "When... when... when..." The small ball stopped at No. 16 with a faint sound, but it resonated in everyone's heart.

  "Haha......ah......" Laughter, shouts, and cheers erupted all at once. Countless people around turned to look this way.

  "Great, I knew it would work out, one look and this is indeed a master."

  "I said it was right to follow, earlier they pressed a single digit and got it all correct."

  "Heavens, 16 again, it's him, he won again."

  …………

  Those who followed Zhao Long were excited, while those who didn't follow regretted it and wondered why they hadn't gone along. But when everyone noticed the 16th light coming on, it immediately ignited. The table suddenly became lively, and some frequent gamblers nearby rushed over.

  "One million yuan... losing three for every one win, that's 35 million yuan, gone..."

  "That's too awesome..."

  …………

  When Zou Zhuang came over to pay the money, his head was all sweaty and his hands were shaking. Because if you count it all up, Zhao Long had already won more than 5 million with these two rounds.

  Did Zhao Long learn some gambling tricks, like a god of gamblers in the movies? Otherwise, how could he be so formidable? Zhang Wei was also excited at this moment. Earlier, he had bet 3 million and now it had become 6 million.

  "Damn..." Ouyi couldn't sit still anymore, getting up and pacing back and forth. He hadn't noticed Zhao Long cheating, but it was clear that Zhao Long could clearly see where the ball would land, this wouldn't do.

  "Xiao Song, Fei Lang, you two go up and replace that idiot." The casino isn't afraid of one person winning money, because even if they let you win consecutively, with limited bets in the hall, it's hard to win too much. Once you reach a certain level, they can find an expert or other ways to deal with you, what they fear are those who follow the trend.

  You can only say this to one person; if there are many people, the effect of saying it will be greatly diminished.

  The two people who have been following Zhao Long, one Chinese and the other American, are Ou Li's trusted assistants. At this time, they came forward to let Zhuang He leave, one of them picked up a small ball, and the other began to ask everyone to place their bets.

  The smarter ones, for example, like Zhang Wei who just lost tens of millions and jumped into the sea to commit suicide but was rescued, found that there was a problem here. His gaze couldn't help but carefully glance at Zhao Long, but fortunately, everyone around him was looking at Zhao Long now, so his action wouldn't attract anyone's attention.

  Zhao Long now has over 50 million chips in his hand, seeing the two of them exchange, he casually took out one million and threw it into the 1-12 area, which is also a 1:2 ratio.

  "Bet on it." Although Ferlang was an American, this sentence was standard Chinese. As soon as he finished speaking, his small ball had already been released. The moment his small ball entered the roulette wheel, with a hint of loss, Zhao Long already knew that the ball would stop at number 32.

  As soon as the little ball started rolling and was about to stop betting, Zhao Long instantly popped 200,000 yuan into area 32.

  As for the people around, they crazily followed suit and pressed in areas 1 to 12. Zhang Lei saw that Zhao Long didn't give him any hints, but thinking that Zhao Long only took out a small part of his own bet, he also took out 500,000 yuan and followed suit.

  The little ball is about to stop slowly, and some of the excited ones are shouting 32. Although they didn't win, seeing that someone has bet in the area of 32 is also very exciting.

  "Hmm." The little Song let out a cold hum, and his hands suddenly pressed down on the table. The table underwent an almost imperceptible slight tremble, and Zhao Long suddenly looked towards Little Song, who had already removed his hands from the table.

  The final ball stopped at No. 33, countless people were disappointed, sighed and regretted.

  At this moment, Ou Li nodded in satisfaction in the monitoring room. Unfortunately, Zhao Long was also very cautious, otherwise this would have been enough to make him lose everything. But it doesn't matter, the slower you lose, the more unwilling you are to lose if you understand the situation and lose everything, only then can you complete the boss's task.

  In the next few rounds, Zhao Long was winning and losing, but it was already very difficult for him to guess a single number again. Gradually, many people around him dispersed, and some even thought that Zhao Long would soon be cleaned up by the high-hand sent by the casino, and they quickly left this place.

  Time passed minute by minute, Zhao Long played neither hastily nor slowly. A night had unknowingly passed. The people at their table hadn't left much, this was the time of day with the least number of people, because many couldn't stay awake and went to rest, after all, not many could go crazy gambling for several days and nights. Moreover, on this gambling boat, there was still a long time ahead.

  Back and forth, Zhao Long's chips were left with only 39 million. On the contrary, Zhang Lei was still playing there, and under his careful consideration, he often pushed against Zhao Long, and his chips became more than 18 million.

  "Xue Er." Another round is about to begin. Zhao Long casually opened his mobile phone and took a glance, the wallpaper was a photo of Xue Er with him at the underwater world.

  Others didn't understand, but Zhang Lei listened in and suddenly became highly tense. Zhao Long should be about to make a move. After a night, he finally understood that Zhao Long was no ordinary person. This casino had deliberately assigned so many people to take care of him, no wonder he had asked himself to pretend not to know him.

  At this time, another round began. When the ball fell down, Zhao Long, who had endured a night, finally made his move.

  What's said must be done, 10288 votes added, but I still feel that the recommended votes are not fierce enough. Can't everyone smash them harder?!!
