According to Han Jinlun's description, and his betting and winning frequency just now, I initially deduced that the win-loss probability of the roulette game is around 1 to 10.
That is, I lose about 10 rounds to win 1 round.
Han Jinlun was using a single-betting mode like the "tiger machine" (slot machine), with a fixed bet amount and a fixed betting type for each round.
Under such a fixed mode, it's no exaggeration to say that winning is purely a matter of immense luck.
This is akin to a fruit slot machine, where you consistently bet on apples or oranges every round.
Anyone who has played fruit slot machines knows that apples occupy the most slots. Betting on apples every time is a relatively safe way to play, but you won't make much money.
The roulette game is the same.
If the winning round doesn't trigger any bonus multipliers, and you're betting on only one type of outcome hoping to win, then...
Unless the machine is pre-programmed with a payout pattern that happens to land on your chosen type, there's absolutely no chance.
The most straightforward explanation is that Han Jinlun, who possesses no gambling skills, was able to win due to a perfect convergence of timing, location, and human factors.
Therefore, his success is not replicable; it can only serve as a reference. kAnshu伍.ξà
Moreover, there's a crucial factor: during the break for dinner, the payout pattern of the roulette machine must not have been altered.
Otherwise, all the betting experience Han Jinlun passed down would be mere empty talk.
With this in mind, I took my chips and walked to the roulette game area, then found an empty table and sat down.
In the roulette game area, there's no need to be wary of opponents.
Because the opponent is only the roulette game itself!
So, after sitting down at the table, I casually glanced at the beautiful dealer responsible for spinning the ball, but paid no attention to any other contestants at the tables.
From 1 PM to 12 AM, excluding one hour for dinner, each contestant has a full ten hours to accumulate chips.
In the roulette area, to accumulate 2 million chips and advance smoothly, one must plan ahead and utilize all chips wisely.
Therefore, when I first started, I didn't follow Han Jinlun's previously mentioned betting ratio. Instead, I lowered it considerably from the original.
The bet placed in each round was almost at the minimum betting amount, just slightly above.
Here, I want to emphasize that the roulette game is not entirely like a slot machine.
Instead, it's more like buying a lottery ticket or a scratch card. To understand and master its patterns and probabilities, one would need to play for a considerable time and invest nearly a million in real money before drawing any conclusions.
Therefore, it relies more on one's own luck and a mysterious intuition.
When the first hour was completed, I carefully recorded the win-loss ratio, which was indeed around the 1 to 10 that Han Jinlun mentioned.
Since I was betting the minimum amount, and two of the winning rounds triggered the bonus multiplier mode, the back-and-forth essentially resulted in me breaking even.
It's a certainty that the beginning is always the hardest, and the desire for quick success often backfires.
The most obvious example was a contestant playing roulette at the table next to me, who lost all their chips within just one hour.
Seeing someone eliminated from the competition made me even more determined to stick to a conservative approach. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
And following the supreme cheating theory, as Uncle Tuo once said, I tried to gamble without relying on cheating techniques, completely depending on my own luck and intuition.
With a calm mind, I emptied all my thoughts.
In addition to continuing the minimum betting method from the previous hour, I also started using my intuition to predict how to bet next.
Seeing that the previous round had landed on an even number, after a brief pause, I chose to continue betting on even numbers.
Unfortunately, my intuition was inaccurate this time, and I didn't win.
However, it was within my expectations.
Intuition, intuition... The so-called intuition is a feeling that directly arises.
Like what I did just now, I was deliberately trying to deduce and imagine. If I could win a round like this, I might as well go buy a lottery ticket.
At this moment, the casino's feng shui layout from earlier suddenly flashed through my mind.
"A fierce tiger sits in the hall, striking in all directions..."
The moment I saw this layout, the large screen in the gambling hall flickered with images of various slot machines rapidly spitting out coins.
The influence of feng shui layout is limited, however...
Slot machines are different!
As long as there are no outsiders around, if I can secretly adjust the probabilities, wouldn't I be able to strike in all directions with more in than out?
With this thought, I narrowed my eyes and focused on the roulette wheel...
Suddenly, I noticed that under the state of narrowed eyes and focused concentration, the series of numbers on the roulette table seemed a bit like a... scorpion!
As everyone knows, the most formidable part of a scorpion is not its two large pincers, but the "poisonous needle" on its tail – the telson!
If it's meant to strike in all directions, then the scorpion's telson is the most deadly weapon!
As I thought about it, I felt this possibility was increasingly likely.
Therefore, after exiting the state of focused thought, I raised my hand and placed my chips on the number corresponding to the telson, which was located at the scorpion's tail.
And this time, I wasn't betting the minimum, but a chip worth ten thousand.
Uncle Tuo said that a con artist must be confident!
Dare to think, dare to act, never be afraid of making mistakes!
Of course, the premise is to plan your chips first, ensuring you don't get yourself into trouble.
As expected!
After connecting the "fierce tiger sits in the hall" feng shui layout with the "blade sha" meaning of slot machines continuously spitting out coins on the big screen, I won this round!
Then, I began to bet on the number corresponding to the telson in a regular pattern, according to the previous win-loss probabilities.
With a 10-to-1 win-loss ratio, each time I bet on the number corresponding to the telson and won the round, it took at least ten minutes of setup to get there.
Calculating this over a full hour, excluding the bonus rounds, I could only win four rounds within that hour.
Although it was infrequent, there were benefits to being infrequent.
The benefit was that the female dealer couldn't figure out or guess my strategy.
Over the next four to five hours, she watched as I gradually accumulated my 200,000 chips to the amount of 2 million.
Before dinner at 7 PM, as my chips were sufficient, I had won and advanced ahead of schedule!
When the female dealer finished counting my chips, sealed them, and announced my victory and advancement...
Everyone in the roulette area, including all the dealers, looked at me up and down with astonished and disbelieving eyes.
One thing is certain: if this cruise ship weren't hosting a gambling tournament, I would definitely have been "escorted" away by now.
