Chapter 475 The Maid of the Dice Roller
"Would anyone like to be the dealer?"

The two sides were seated, and the onlookers gradually lowered their voices, so Mrs. Sang Mei shouted.

Then, an elderly Old Mister raised his hand behind the crowd:
"Why don't I come!"

He squeezed to the front of the crowd to introduce himself Identity, this is also a regular customer of the Three Cats Hotel, and is the boss of a nearby antique shop.

"So what's the rule to play? Basic rule best of 3 games? Depleted deck vs. victory points? Or do you have other ways to play?"

Shade asked, The left hand holds the deck, the right hand pulls up, and the 54 cards oscillate back and forth between the left and right hands, and then the shuffle of hua la la is very smooth there, which arouses a very interesting discussion.

Because of the Mystic Art power of [Treasures], he can now easily achieve the shuffling technique that can only be shown in his hometown's film and television works. This made him look more professional, and the maid behind him raised his eyebrows, probably wondering if Shade was a gambler.

"Since we are playing cards with new opponents, let's play some new ways."

Mrs. Sang Mei is also shuffling the cards, and her technique is equally skilled. Then, she took out a dice from her pocket and threw it on the table. It was a six-sided metal dice, and her eyes looked towards the opponent on the opposite side of the table:
"Detective, since you also brought a companion, then Why don't you and I choose your own representatives, throw the dice once before each round, and the two people's numbers are superimposed and divided by two, which is the number of cards drawn in this round, and the odd number will be rounded down. Two wins are too boring, the number of rounds is determined by the two who throw the dice. No matter which side throws a 6 in the process of throwing the dice, then that round is the end of the round. After the end of the round, the side with the most wins wins. , how?"

Although it sounds a bit complicated, it's just an extra step of rolling dice to determine the number of cards drawn. And the number is jointly determined by the dice points of both parties, so it is also very fair.

This is Shade's first experience with this game, and he's happy to try it:
"Then let my assistant, Miss Tifa Serveit, throw the dice for me."

p>

While traditional superstition holds that letting a woman deal cards brings bad luck, there isn't much to say about rolling the dice.

"Okay, little James, come and throw the dice for me."

The female shopkeeper called to her side the young helper who came from the kitchen to watch the fun. Six or seven years old, tall and thin young man. Although dressed as an inn's maid, no matter what aesthetic standards are used, this is a very handsome youngster.

"Mr. Hamilton, what do you need me to roll?"

Before the match, Miss Serveit leaned slightly behind Shade and whispered in his ear .

Shade turned his head in surprise and happened to meet the pair of smart eyes that were close at hand:

"You mean you can. No, no, anything."

He is very confident in his luck in playing cards, and when it comes to special cards, he is not willing to cheat others.

So the game officially started. The dice were not thrown directly. The female shopkeeper, Mrs. Sang Mei, found a brown wooden dice cup. The first is a young man called "Little James". He picked up the dice cup and shook it a few times before putting it down. After opening it, the number three.

Miss Serveit followed, holding the dice cup in her fair hands, then looked at Shade and winked at him. Gently shake the utensil in your hand, let the dice hit the inner wall of the container and make a sound, then put it down and open it with a look of anticipation.

Number 1.

She looked towards Shade again, winking at him, Shade realizing it was a number she was shaking on purpose.

Therefore, the number of cards drawn in the first round is two, and the game has just begun, and neither side has drawn any special cards. Mrs. Sang Mei 1+9=10 points, Shade is the sun 5, the flower is 10, and won the first game.

"It looks like you've had a good day, detective. But people always think that whoever wins the game first will have a hard time winning."

People whispered Then, Mrs. Sang Mei said a superstitious saying she heard from nowhere, and threw the two cards in her hand aside, signaling little James to continue to shake the dice.

The first dice number that appeared in the second round was 5, and Tifa, who pursed her lips and smiled, rolled a 2 after winking at Shade again.

People lamented the luck of this beautiful girl, she still kept her pursed lips and smiling expression, Shade also looked towards her, didn't expect the maid to follow her, and she could play her role in The role of rolling the dice in a game.

So in the second round, each side draws three cards.

Mrs. Sang Mei cautiously took over the cards dealt by the antique shop owner, opened them in turn, and smiled.

The stars are 7, the moon is 5, and the sun is 4. It's 16 points, but with Shade also only drawing 3 cards, that's already a high chance of winning.

I don't know if it was Tifa's dice "luck" that exhausted Shade's luck. After the founding series was taken out of the deck, there were still 6 special cards in the deck, but Shade still didn't draw any.

This game is a draw, and Shade's three cards are all flower suits. Flower 13, Flower 2 and Flower 1, are also 16 points.

The onlookers sighed together, which made the situation a little more complicated, but also made the game more enjoyable to watch.

"I'm still one game ahead."

Shade said to Mrs. Sammy with a smile, holding the card between the index finger and middle finger of the right hand, flicking the three cards Toss aside.

"It doesn't matter, it's just one game."

She is still very confident, and the people onlookers are discussing that last week, Mrs. Sang Mei still won the second place. That game.

It was only at first in the third game. Little James, who was helping Mrs. Sang Mei to shake the dice cup, actually offered a score of six.

Not only the onlookers, but even Shade was surprised.

The youngster who was helping out in the kitchen looked ugly towards his boss, but Mrs. Sang Mei's expression didn't change:

"It doesn't matter, if this round is my victory, then it is A tie. We can add a tiebreaker to decide the winner."

"But it could also be my win or another tie."

Shade said, motioning for Tifa to roll the dice. .

The smile on the dark-haired girl's face became more pronounced. She swayed gently and glanced at Shade as she put down the dice cup.

Shade suddenly guessed what numbers she'd come up with.

"Oh, it's also six!"

The crowd clamored again, which meant that both players had to draw 6 cards. And under the blackjack rule, the probability of drawing six cards without busting is probably lower than the probability of both throwing six.

And once both sides bust, that is, a draw, then Shade wins directly.

This time, Mrs. Sang Mei's face was finally a little ugly.
