Midnight has passed, and the "highest game" is still in full swing.

Whether it is the high-ranking officials who are used to nightlife or the gamblers who survive in the dark all year round, they will not feel tired at this time; on the contrary, this is the time when their physical and mental excitement peaks.

At this moment, Ryunosuke and his group were staying in the cabin of a game called "Note Roulette".

There are two differences between this game and general roulette: First, the ivory balls used in this game are thrown by machinery rather than human power, and the dealer is only responsible for maintaining the order of the table and settlement chips; second, before each round begins to bet, a computer connected to the roulette table will randomly play a melody, and its length ranges from two to three seconds to seven or eight seconds.

Although the rules are not stated, anyone can see... Such a setting clearly shows that the result of "note roulette" is determined by the computer, and the results of each round will be prompted in the melody played in advance; as long as the relationship between the melody and the result can be deciphered, the game will be no difficulty.

So...if nothing unexpected happens, this project also sets a "upper limit for winning money" to prevent players who have cracked the secret from winning points here.

Shizuo is not very good at this game; as a professional gambler who comes out to "get a job" after studying middle school, "music" must be his blind spot in knowledge. Even if he knows some basics, it is not enough to help him solve this puzzle.

However, Ah Xiu seemed to know this very well and was very good at it. When he saw a project with the word "note" in the name of a project, he took the initiative to ask for a look, and said that when he encountered related puzzles, he could explain some musical knowledge to everyone.

Anyway, the roulette is relatively free, and there is no requirement that you have to place bets in every round. You can't stand by and just watch it. If you don't see anything in the end, you can't even gamble and leave.

So Ryunosuke followed Ah Xiu's advice and came to the cabin.

Although Suzu didn't understand music theory very much, he knew everything about roulette.

Roulette is a form of gambling that is very beneficial to the dealer; putting aside the cheating factor, this is a pure luck competition, and there is no skill at all, so you can know the winning rate of both sides by using simple probability calculations.

Taking the 36 number, you can bet on the standard roulette with red, black, odd and even sections as an example. In addition to 1 to 36, there are two additional numbers on the roulette, "0" and "00", with a total of 38, and the probability of drawing any number is 1/38; therefore, the banker's expectation value is 1x1/38+1x1/38+1x35/38-35x1/38=2/38=1/19≈0.0526; that is to say, every time the guest bets on 10,000 yuan here, he will lose 526 of them. The longer the gambling goes on, the more the amount accumulates.

A certain guest only bets one number and wins money. This kind of probability is only one in 38, which rarely happens; even if it happens... as long as there are enough guests at the roulette table and play for a long time, the overall advantage of the dealer remains unchanged.

But... most customers will not count these things; people who bet with the mentality of "playing casually" and "tap luck" often only see those "good luck" who accidentally bet, but cannot see the overall situation.

Professional gamblers are different.

More than 90% of people in this industry participate in every gambling with the idea of ​​"never lose"; they will not have the pleasure of "betting hard", because gambling money is their lives, and exhaustion of gambling money is like death for them. Except for a very small number of madmen, no one will feel that there is any happiness in such a thing as betting on the table.

The casual guests can complain after losing all their money, "I am really lucky" and then go back silently.

But gamblers... there is no place to "go back", the gambling table is the place for them to survive.

In order to survive, they must force themselves to do things that ordinary people cannot do; such as memory, calculation and deduction, which are the basic abilities that apply to all gamblers... People who cannot even calculate the probability in the "Game of Opportunity" do not need to talk about evaluating risks, capturing fortunes, and winning.

There is no doubt that Suzu is outstanding in these three aspects. With his understanding of roulette and constant communication with Ah Xiu... After observing for fifteen minutes, Suzu and Ah Xiu left the crowded gambling table and whispered in the corner for a while.

Soon, the two of them looked at each other and showed a relaxed look.

Seeing this, Ryunosuke understood at that time... the two of them had discovered something, and even had a conclusion.

Sure enough, Shizuo immediately came to Ryunosuke and quietly told him the rules of the game to put it bluntly. This is a project of "inference" and "speed calculation". After inferring the algorithm, you can handle it in one hand.

The tips about the algorithm are actually hidden in the name of the game; why is this item called "note roulette" instead of "musical roulette" or "melody roulette"? No matter how you look at it, it is a bit inconsistent to describe this game using the concept of notes?

This inconsistency point is to make players notice... "Notes" are exactly the key to this game.

Everyone knows that the melody before betting suggests the result of this round, but how do you convert the melody into numbers? Naturally, others have tried to solve it, such as replacing the scale cdefgab with 3456712 or 1234567 respectively, and then converting it with the number of seconds that the melody lasts; or the difference between the scales, the number of whole-tone semitones to calculate, etc.

Unfortunately...that's wrong.

The correct solution is to calculate the type of "note", that is, relying on "audit" and "music theory knowledge", and to hear the differences in the melody are all notes, then multiply them with the corresponding scales, and finally add up each digit.

Of course, it is still wrong to think of this level... the answer is not that simple.

Suppose that if a quarter note encounters a scale like 3 or 7, fractions will appear after multiplication. This value appears in the equation where the answer must be an integer, it means that there is an error in the direction of the solution.

At this point, Suzu and Ah Xiu were stuck for a long time. In the end, Ah Xiu repeatedly pondered the melody he heard before, and then solved the answer. Don’t regard the scale as 1 to 7, but just treat it as a key on the piano. For example, the last key on the piano, the roll title is do. According to the idea of ​​the scale, it should be 1 or 3, but here, it should be regarded as "88".

After thinking about it many times, Ah Xiu realized that all the previous melodies were "white keys" on the piano, and they were even numbers in the eighty-eight digits, so she thought of this pattern.

Once you find the right idea, things will be easier.

In the next few rounds, every time the melody sounded, A Xiu, who was responsible for "listening", immediately reported the scales and numbers referred to by the notes, and Suan immediately converted all the numbers into a final result. This level of mental arithmetic can also be done by primary school students, and for them, it is something that can be accomplished in seconds.

As a result, they guessed the answer for four consecutive rounds.

However, in these four rounds, they were just experimenting and did not ask Ryunosuke to bet with money; because according to their puzzle-solving ideas, the three numbers "0", "00" and "1" are impossible to appear, and the chances of 2 to 5 are also very small... This means that there is something in the puzzle that they have not completely seen through, that is, "risk".

So, Suzu and Ah Xiu made further observations, and finally, after the sixth consecutive guess, there was a "abnormal melody", that is, the melody of "the cracking method they thought of cannot obtain integers".

And when this abnormal melody appeared, the round showed the number "0".

After learning this, they were relieved; they no longer had to unravel the melody formulas of the three numbers 0,00 and 1, they just needed to know that there would be signs when such an abnormal number appeared.

In the next round, a normal melody sounded. Under Jue's instructions, Ryunosuke directly bet on a single number of chips he had exchanged before (note roulette is used to exchange points for chips) on a single number, which made the bet 36 times in one fell swoop... Because he had never made a bet before, he had never lost a dollar... So, there is no doubt that this round of betting made his profit exceed the winning limit of this project.

Until he left the cabin of this game, Ryunosuke still had a slight understanding of the theory that Suzu and Ah Hsu said, but he didn't care. At this point, he had a 200% trust in Suzu. He firmly believed that the men around him were the strongest gamblers. Even if Suzu let him put all the points cards in one breath on a certain project, he would do it without hesitation.

…………

At two in the morning, considering seasonal factors, there are about three hours left before dawn.

The highest game is becoming increasingly fierce.

Those who have lost everything and watch from the wall still have hope. Those who are struggling hard and think they can win and those who are making the final sprint... The closer they are to the "end", the more the charm of "gambling" makes people unable to extricate themselves.

By this time, most people have seen through... Each of the projects that bet against the dealer has a "strategic method"; in fact, some people have taken advantage of this to take some actions.

For example, use the strategy method of a project you have already mastered to exchange with the strategy method of another project you have mastered, or use the "method" to directly exchange the points card.

Take "virtual horse racing" as an example. You can propose that others use several points cards (less than or equal to the maximum value that the project can win) in exchange for the "strategy method" transaction; if the other party agrees, you can easily get the points cards at almost zero cost. Although the other party loses several points cards first, after mastering the strategy method, you can quickly win more, and after you win, you can still sell the same method to others... that is still a profit.

But there are many things to be wary of: What if someone uses fake strategy to deceive you? Or the other party is just a little sensible, and even deliberately reserves you on key information to injure you... Then you can lose a lot.

If you take a step back, the person who can sell the information to you means that he has already obtained points ahead of you in this project, and you will give him points... Even if he doesn't come to lie to you, the gap between you and him will only become bigger and bigger.

To sum up, those who are still rushing to "a game with a limit, a game that fights against the dealer" basically have no chance of winning.

Players who really have the chance to win the final victory have accumulated enough "capital" and have gathered in the cabins of those "confrontational projects" one after another... A series of good scenes of encroaching on each other and fighting each other.

Ryunosuke and the others finally arrived at the game cabin with the theme of "mahjong" and prepared to show their strength.

What happened in this world is so coincidental... Just as they walked to the door of the cabin, Eric, his two bodyguards, and the "Star County Gambling King" Hopkins, also came here.

It is truly a matter of being able to meet enemies thousands of miles away, but a person who loves each other will not meet each other.

Ryunosuke and Eric didn't even need to say anything. As soon as they entered the cabin, they sat opposite the same table and glared at each other; the smell of gunpowder between them... seemed to blow up the entire ship.

A few seconds later, a black suit quickly came over and said, "Two, are you going to join the game?"

"Ah...of course." Ryunosuke replied.

"Ha..." Eric lit a cigar for himself and sneered, "That's right."

"Yeah." Black suit nodded, "Although the rules at the door are written, I need to emphasize here. In this game, I am just a circumstance evidence. Even if I see through the situations like "a thousand", I have no obligation to point out. To "catch the current situation", you must catch them yourself."

"Simply put..." At this time, Shizuo continued in his ruffian tone, "Everyone can only blame himself for being stupid," he said, while sitting down on Ryunosuke's left.

"Hahaha..." On the other side, Hopkins also sat on Eric's left hand with his scheming smile, "This 'winner' guy... you seem to be quite confident."
Chapter completed!
