"You probably don't know much about the Macao stables and you don't know the difference between the jockeys, but I can see the difference between them." The Jingxi Mahjong Devil pointed at the horses and riders who were about to enter the arena and explained, "Look at the color of their clothes, the red one is a first class rider, the blue one is a second class rider and the black one is a trainee rider. Unfortunately, the red star rider is a trainee rider."
Zhou Hao looked at the various participants' attire speechlessly. He knew that this competition would not be that simple, but this was something that he did not know about, how he could measure it. If not for the fact that Jingxi Mahjong Devil had told him the way, he would not have known the reason why he lost this competition.
It was fine if it was just playing around, but he was a professional gambler or a Casino master, he had a lot of things to learn, even if he lost today, Zhou Hao did not feel that it was such a pity, if he lost on something he did not understand, it would just be spending money to buy a lesson.
You don't have to be too disappointed. Although he is a trainee jockey, he might not necessarily be very bad, there will always be one or two talented jockeys who will display their best abilities in the first match. If the jockey you met is like this, then maybe Red Star will still be number one. The Jingxi Mahjong Devil comforted Zhou Hao with good intentions.
Zhou Hao naturally did not take it seriously, if it really could be like this, Jingxi Mahjong Devil would not give up on Hong Xing, but although Zhou Hao was not confident in his ability in the second round, the other two matches should be more or less the same.
After the host announced the results, he continued: "The next three matches are specially prepared for the gambling competition. Everyone has already placed their bets, if any other players wish to participate in the gambling competition, please immediately place your bets, the first match will begin in five minutes." After that, he gave the name of the horse and the rider's name. It seemed that anyone who came here often to gamble would understand.
"Brother, your victory in this match is actually very big, there are a limited number of people that can grow three consecutive rounds. At least among us dozens of people, I don't know who is a famous master, and occasionally two dark horses will appear, but they can't be that many dark horses." The Demon General who was pleasantly surprised looked at the gamblers outside and went to bet one by one, and said to Zhou Hao in a low voice.
Zhou Hao didn't know why Jingxi Mahjong Devil was being so friendly, but he still smiled: "It's alright, brother, I'm here to join in the fun, to win if I can, I don't care if I lose, but why is it that the host has already announced that the following matches are dedicated to the gambling competition, and there are still so many people betting on it, don't they know that we've all seen horses before, the chances of winning are even higher!"
Jingxi Mahjong Devil laughed: "This, you probably don't understand, this is a habit of previous gambling competitions, every gambling competition, the officials will not leak out the specific plans of the participants, but they will suppress everyone and show, that is to say, the gamblers will know which horse we bet the most on."
Zhou Hao did not expect the organizers to do this, and asked puzzledly: "If that's the case, then if the gamblers choose to get first, then the organizers will lose quite a lot, for a loss like this, why would they do it, with He Hongsen's intelligence, it shouldn't be possible."
Seeing that the competition was about to begin, Jingxi Mahjong Devil smiled and said: "This kind of loss-making business, not to mention He Hongsen, as long as it's someone with a little intelligence, they would not even bother to do it. Therefore, although the gamblers may win their bets, but there is a limit, and the biggest benefit is that it can restrict the gamblers from winning too much, so even if the gamblers win, they can't win too much from the gamblers."
Zhou Hao looked at Jingxi Mahjong Devil in shock. This fellow was not simple, he knew so many things, if Wang Xiaohu had not investigated him before, he would suspect that Jingxi Mahjong Devil was He Hongsen's man. However, as a man from Shaanxi Province, he had always been staying at Macao's casino.
The Jingxi Mahjong Devil could guess that Zhou Hao was very wary of him, and he wasn't in a hurry either, he was only chatting with Zhou Hao first. What the hell was he thinking, Zhou Hao wasn't clear of, but one thing was certain, the Jingxi Mahjong Devil seemed to want to go with him to the next round, and it didn't matter even if he became's opponent.
When they were chatting, the first round of the competition was already prepared. Zhou Hao and Jingxi Mahjong Devil were looking forward to the third stage 'general', so they both walked onto the competition track with their heads held high and their chests puffed. The rider pulling the horse rider was dressed in red clothes was already informed by the Jingxi Mahjong Devil that the rider's attire meant that the horse rider was a level 1 rider.
This meant that in this competition, the influence of the riders were not that great, and the main reason was probably because of the competition between the horse races. In this regard, Zhou Hao and Jingxi Mahjong Devil were very confident, as the "Great General" was the best among all the horse races.
The general is in a good condition, and his jockey should have a certain level of strength as well. Compared to other horse races, he has a great advantage, and I just took a look at the situation. Of the people who have bet this time, less than ten have chosen the general. Seeing that the host was about to announce the start of the competition, Jingxi Mahjong Devil spoke again.
Zhou Hao's heart was calm, but he still asked: "Is there anything unfair about this competition, like human factors, the horses we're betting on are not something we can control? If the organizers use some methods to control the horse racing, then everything will be over."
When the Jingxi Mahjong Devil heard Zhou Hao's words, he immediately laughed: "Those phenomena that you spoke of, if there are any big clients participating, it would indeed affect the results of the horse gambling. But in this kind of competition, it definitely won't happen, unless He Hongsen doesn't want to be his Gambling King."
"Don't look at me like that, let's put it this way, those who are here to participate in the gambling competition, even if you can't say that there are countless experts, at least they are at a certain level. Of course, old brother has the possibility, but it is very rare for someone to be able to reach such a stage by luck, if He Hongsen is serious, everyone can tell that the participants will tolerate the organizers of the competition for cheating." Jingxi Mahjong Devil said with great understanding.
Zhou Hao did not say anything this time, the words of the Jingxi Mahjong Devil were reasonable, although they were all gamblers, and knew that cheating would occur at the gambling table, but they definitely could not allow the organizers to cheat. This way, the competition would lose its fairness, and the final champion would be decided.
As the two spoke, the first match had already begun. As they had expected, the general was already half a horse's length faster than the other horses. Although Number 1 and Number 6 were very close, but by the time the horse racing team was halfway done, the general had already passed through.
As long as there were no mishaps, everyone could tell that the general was the champion of this match, and the jockey was obviously very strong as well. As long as there weren't any mishaps, anyone could tell that the general was the champion of this match, and the jockey was very strong as well.
"The general really did not disappoint us. We can probably win quite a lot this time. I think that even if you lose the second match, you will still have a lot of gambling money." Even though Jingxi Mahjong Devil was an expert of the Casino, he still spoke excitedly when he saw that the Great General had won.
Zhou Hao was not as excited as the Jingxi Mahjong Devil. He did not care too much about the competition, but he still said casually: "Big bro, don't talk big. You said it already, if the rider performs well, maybe he can even win the competition.
"Uh, little brother, you really have confidence in yourself. Haha, but it doesn't matter, since I've probably won quite a lot in the first round. I won't lose in the second round, so you can rest assured." Jingxi Mahjong Devil was startled for a moment, then said while smiling. Zhou Hao's calmness became unfathomable in his eyes.
No matter what goal they had, at least they did not have any enmity towards each other now. Zhou Hao also felt that the Jingxi Mahjong Devil was a very talkative person, if the two did not meet in the competition, they might actually become friends.
The time between the two matches was 20 minutes. There was plenty of time for the players to prepare and for the players to bet on the first match. When the first match ended, the gamblers would lose a lot and win less.
Although there was a limit to the bet, but on the first try, if they lost, on the second try, they might as well choose between the contestants instead of believing that it was a better choice. Blind people never existed, and gamblers who had lost once would always be more cautious, Zhou Hao was not too concerned about this, but he still wanted to know the situation of the contestants.
From Zhou Hao's perspective, he could not see the signboard for the bet, but Jingxi Mahjong Devil could. Before Zhou Hao could even ask about it, Jingxi Mahjong Devil was already happily laughing: "Looks like the second round's strength is quite obvious, there are actually over twenty people betting for the red stars, it's a pity that the chances of the red stars failing this time is very high!"
Zhou Hao was not worried, but smiled and said to Jingxi Mahjong Devil: "Old brother, congratulations to you! The more you bet, the more chances you have to win, if there is no miracle, all of us will bet on you, and even if you do not win the third round, you should be able to advance right?"
