Chapter 519 Mathematical Genius
"Henry spent some time participating in the qualifiers a few days ago, and his performance today is mediocre."

Hearing Qin Feng mentioning Henry, Chen Shihao had a wry smile on his face. If it wasn't for Henry's unsatisfactory performance today, how could he come to Qin Feng at nearly one o'clock in the night?
"Oh? What's the matter?"

Qin Feng asked with some doubts: "With Henry's gambling skills, I dare not say that he can secure the title of world gambling king, but there are only a handful of people in Las Vegas who are better than him, right?"

Qin Feng and Henry have gambled against each other, so they naturally know how good Henry's gambling skills are. He is the direct disciple of Ye Han, the descendant of Qianmen. In Qin Feng's view, it should be no problem to deal with this kind of game.

"It is estimated that as long as they are well-informed, they will know what is going to happen on the island of Australia."

The bitterness on Chen Shihao's face was even worse, he shook his head, and said: "There are a lot of masters in this qualifier, and it was very hard for Henry to break through the siege and win on the last day, which really affected today's state..."

As a gambling industry that generates huge profits around the world every year, it can be compared to the pornography and drug industries. Naturally, there are people trying to get into this industry every moment, and there are more and more professional gamblers derived from it. .

The people who participated in the Gambling King Competition this year, apart from some rich and wealthy businessmen and those tourists who joined in the fun, also appeared many new faces with high gambling skills, which caused a wave of waves in the preliminaries.

Among them was a New Zealand man named Sigmont, who actually won consecutive matches in stud in the qualifiers, and finally broke into the main match with an undefeated record.

Henry had a match with him, and he was actually defeated by him. If it wasn't for the cumulative record to determine whether he could participate in the main match, Henry might have been eliminated in the qualifiers.

"Oh? That man named Sigmund is so powerful? What is the origin of this man..." After hearing Chen Shihao's words, Qin Feng froze for a moment, with a hint of disbelief on his face.

Gambling originated in China and spread across thousands of families, so in Qin Feng's mind, what foreigners know is trivial, and he doesn't care about it at all.

Seeing the expression on Qin Feng's face, Chen Shihao smiled wryly, and said, "Brother Qin, don't believe me, this person didn't know how to gamble a year ago..."

"You didn't know how to gamble a year ago, but you can beat Henry now?"

Qin Feng shook his head and said: "Brother Hao, I can't hear what you said now, and I interpret it with lip language. Could it be that I misread your lip language?"

If you want to learn how to gamble, you must first be able to gamble, but there are hundreds of millions of gamblers in the world, how many people dare to say they can gamble?
Among other things, there are all kinds of ways to gamble, and if you want to figure it out, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it in a year or so.

It is Qin Feng, who also practiced hard for three years with Zai Shi, and then got the inheritance of the eight foreign sects in the jade pendant. Only then did he master the gambling skills and can be called a person who knows how to gamble.

And that New Zealander named Sigmont, who didn't even know how to gamble a year ago, can beat Henry in a regular game a year later. There is only one explanation. genius!
"Brother Qin, you read that right, that person did not even enter a casino a year ago..."

Don't say that Qin Feng didn't understand, even Chen Shihao couldn't figure out why there was such a freak in this Gambling King Competition. When he was about to explain to Qin Feng, the doorbell outside remembered it.

"Brother Hao, you can talk about it later, I also want to hear what's going on?" Liu Zimo, who was also full of disbelief at the side, got up to open the door, but he didn't forget to turn his head and explain to Chen Shihao.

"The steak in this hotel is delicious..."

After tipping the waiter 50 yuan, Liu Zimo walked into the room with a plate in one hand and an ice bucket in the other. There was a bottle of red wine in the ice bucket, a corkscrew and three wine glasses beside him. .

"The fragrance is not your share..."

Seeing that Liu Zimo was about to lick the rice grains with his mouth, Qin Feng quickly grabbed the beef steak rice, and said angrily: "If you don't do any shit, you know how to pick up girls and fight. You are still a foodie. I've been tinkering with it since I was a child." You didn't eat anything..."

When Qin Feng was a child, he took his younger sister homeless and had no money at all, so he had to suffer from headaches every day for food.

But the poor have solutions for the poor. In the 80s, wild rivers were everywhere, and there was no so-called fish pond contracting.

So things like fish and shrimp bastards, crabs and eels, and even frogs and loaches have become common foods on the dining table of the Qin Feng brothers and sisters. At that time, Liu Zimo often ate in Qin Feng's dilapidated house.

"Hey, buddy, I didn't do anything wrong to you, did I?"

Liu Zimo yelled as if complaining: "Didn't I take all the good rice and noodles in your house? And in the Chinese New Year, did you forget that I stole a pig hind leg from the house, and you ate half of it?" What about the month..."

"Well, I owe you..."

Qin Feng didn't want to mention the past to outsiders, so he quickly raised his hand to express his surrender. In fact, he was just teasing Liu Zimo. Speaking of the friendship back then, it was definitely Liu Zimo who helped his brother and sister a lot.

Not only the rice noodles, but also the quilts used by Qin Feng and his sister were all taken out by Liu Zimo from home. As for the stealing of the pig's hind legs, Liu Zimo was beaten hard.

"Brother Hao, sorry for interrupting..."

Qin Feng looked at Chen Shihao apologetically, stretched out his hand to open the bottle of red wine, poured some into the three glasses on the table, and said: "You continue to talk about that New Zealander, what is going on with this man? What's the trick?"

Because of so much suffering since childhood, in Qin Feng's impression, there is absolutely no shortcut to everything in this world.

Others saw that Qin Feng was proficient in various unique skills, but who knew that during the three or four years in prison, Qin Feng could only sleep two or three hours a day, and spent the rest of the time receiving the teachings of his master.

If he hadn't been able to endure hardships since he was a child, and the mental method passed down by uploading can quickly restore Qin Feng's energy, I am afraid that Qin Feng would not be able to hold on long ago, and he would not have achieved what he is today.

"Brother Qin, this person is an anomaly. He can only gamble with poker, and he only gambles on three types of cards: baccarat, stud and blackjack..."

Reaching out to pick up the red wine glass in front of him, Chen Shihao took a sip, and then said: "This man is very shrewd in gambling, he is very resolute when he wants a card, and he doesn't hesitate when he folds. After a game, he almost Only lose the ante, but the winning chips are the most on the table..."

"This person can read cards?"

Qin Feng frowned when he heard the words, and said to himself: "Shouldn't the croupier shuffle the cards with his hands in a game like this? It's unlikely that he could see the process of shuffling the cards?"

Chen Shihao nodded, and said, "You're right, the most advanced card dealer is used in this gambling king contest, and there is no act of shuffling the cards..."

When the technology was not so advanced before, the shuffle and dice rolling in the casino were almost all done by the croupiers. It was the early and mid-90s, and many gambling kings still continued this way.

This is also the reason why a good croupier is sought after by many casinos. When Ye Han passed away, Henry and the others just nodded, and any casino in the world would open their doors to them.

However, in the past one or two years, in order to reduce the influence of human factors, many casinos have begun to add some gambling tools with technological content.

Just like the card dealing machine mentioned above, three to five decks of poker cards with big and small ghosts can be placed in a deck of card dealing machines, and the cards are automatically shuffled and dealt. No one can shuffle the cards any more. Poker position observed.

In addition, there are machines like rolling dice. In the past, the shaking cup was in the hands of the croupier, and the shaking cup was opaque. Only after the croupier finished shaking the pot did the gamblers accept their bets.

But now that the machine shaker is used, the rules have changed.

Not only did the shaking cup become transparent, but the dice were rolled only after the gamblers had finished buying the size. There was no need to open the shaking cup to win or lose, and everyone could see clearly at a glance after the shaking.

These changes are all made by casinos to prevent professional gamblers.

Of course, ten gambles and nine deceptions, no matter how clever the technology and advanced machines are, they cannot be separated from human factors. Who knows that casinos can’t manipulate those gambling tools that seem to be impossible to fake?

"Then why does this person only win but not lose?" Qin Feng frowned, he couldn't even eat the delicious steak rice in front of him.

After watching Liu Zimo secretly cut a piece of steak and put it in his mouth, Qin Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and said: "Probability, this person should use probability analysis. He is indeed a genius, but a genius in mathematics!"

"Huh? Qin Feng, you... you said he is a genius in mathematics?"

After hearing Qin Feng's words, Chen Shihao was stunned for a moment, put down the red wine glass in his hand, and said, "This man is indeed a math teacher from New Zealand, but he doesn't seem to be very famous, he can't be called a genius..."

Although Chen Shihao was not ranked high in European and American countries, he was still a big crocodile occupying one side. After the New Zealander named Sigmund emerged, he quickly found out the origin of this person.

Sigmunt was born in a mathematics family in New Zealand. His parents were both professors of mathematics at the University of London in England. Sigmunt showed his sensitivity to numbers since he was a child.

However, Sigmont seems to have failed to achieve his parents' achievements in mathematics. After graduating from university, he unexpectedly did not choose to stay at the University of London to teach, but returned to New Zealand and worked as a mathematics teacher in a middle school.

Judging from his resume, Sigmund's resume is very simple, and it seems that he has nothing to do with gambling at all, because just over a year ago, he was just a math teacher.

Qin Feng shook his head, and said slowly: "I have never accepted gambling skills. After getting rid of human factors, he can only win but not lose. That must be a judgment based on probability analysis, Brother Hao, Can't go wrong."

Qin Feng knows that among all the gambling skills, Zai is the weakest one, which is to bet on poker, because although poker originated in the Southern Song Dynasty of China, it is called playing cards.

But the cards at that time were not perfect, there were only [-] or [-] cards. The real rise and acceptance of poker did not begin until it was spread to Europe.

In 54, France developed poker into [-] cards and formulated related playing methods. However, in modern times, poker has become an imported product and entered China.

Therefore, poker is far more popular abroad than it was in China in the early years. In view of this, Zai also spent a lot of effort to supplement the relevant gameplay of poker.

Back then, Zaishi told Qin Feng that poker is a game of probability. A true genius doesn’t need to memorize the cards at all, but can roughly analyze the cards from the probability. This is also the basis for Qin Feng to deduce the identity of the person. .
