From ancient times to the present, Chinese people's forms of gambling were innumerable, such as: cockfighting, duck fighting, horse racing, dog racing, cricket fighting, and so on.
China has always been particular about man conquering nature. On one hand, it depends on ability, but it also likes to bet on luck.
Therefore, Chinese gambling is not only reflected on the gambling table, but also reflected in life.
In modern times, since the opening of the country, in addition to playing mahjong, foreign gambling such as poker, lottery, roulette, and "tiger slot" have also appeared on a large scale.
Today, Chinese people are known as the world's best gambler nation.
There is a joke that says that of the 1.4 billion Chinese people, 90% gamble, and 10% dance. Whether it is right or wrong, it is undeniable that China does have a unique "gambling culture".
In China, mahjong tables can be set up anywhere, and soon there will be four people leisurely building the Great Wall. Mahjong rooms are known as old people's activity rooms and community chess rooms.
Besides, Chinese people are always seen gathering in any casino in the world.
Whether it is Las Vegas in the United States or Monte Carlo in Monaco; whether it is Yangkakudo Hotel in North Korea or Genting in Malaysia; from Australia in the southern hemisphere to the casinos in Vietnam, Myanmar, and South Africa around China, it is not difficult to find Chinese people who are addicted to gambling.
There is a popular saying in the gambling world: Asians are the best gamblers in all continents, and Chinese people are the best in Asia.
After finding a parking space at the Central Ring Pier, Yu Dehua did not go to the ticket office to buy a ticket. Li He asked, "Where are you going? To get the ticket. " [Love ↑ go △ Little ↑ Say △ Net w
】
Yu Dehua said, "Let's go take the Golden Light Speedboat. We don't have to squeeze on the boat."
As Yu Dehua's business grew bigger and bigger, he had unconsciously entered the role of a big boss.
Li He was naturally happy. The speedboat was much faster than the ferry.
He had been to Macau many times before, but it was not for gambling, but for the sake of culture. He wanted to experience history and culture, such as the historical district of Macau and the ruins of the old city walls.
Of course, he had played a few rounds, but they were all in the lobby playing Texas Poker. The sense of accomplishment was more important than the money itself, as playing Texas Poker required one to be good at calculating and observing. Being able to win money also represented a kind of ability.
The speedboat was still relatively fast. It only took more than an hour to reach Macau.
Li He said, "Let's eat something first, it's already noon."
Yu Dehua nodded and took a taxi to a familiar restaurant.
When they got out of the car, Su Ming was shocked. "It's only 50 HKD for such a short distance. We might as well walk."
Yu Dehua glanced at Su Ming with disdain. "Don't be surprised."
After dinner, they began to head to the casino. However, the people that Li He was familiar with, Wynn and Portugal, were nowhere to be seen.
Yu Dehua took them to the Australian Entertainment Hotel, which was more than 40 floors.
Yu Dehua entered the door with familiarity. The air in the casino was filled with oxygen, so when Li He entered the hall, his spirit would be raised to a more excited state than usual. However, the smoke that filled the casino at all times made Li He, an old smoker, feel unbearable.
As soon as Yu Dehua entered the door, he stopped in front of a large TV screen in a corner. He slapped his thigh in embarrassment. "How could I forget to open a horse today? I want to study it and buy a horse. You guys stroll around first, it's very safe here, no one will cause trouble. "
Li He couldn't help but smile. "You're really something. You came all the way to Macau just to buy a horse."
Yu Dehua bought 10,000 yuan worth of chips and handed them to Li He. "You guys go play first, I'll look for you later."
In the messy hall, many gamblers were excited and continued to gamble. They were still in the gambling house.
As long as I gamble, if I win, I will continue to increase the stakes; if I lose, I will constantly seek to recover, and in the end, I will still lose everything.
Li He's analysis of this psychology was very thorough and correct.
Because a person gambled too often in this kind of place, the more he gambled, the more he gambled. His calm and reason had been gradually swallowed up by greed, and his mentality was gradually distorted without him even realizing it.
So no matter how much money he won, it didn't matter how many times he won.
Once his reason was swallowed up by greed, the value of money, the awareness of risk, and even the meaning of life would be left behind. He was no longer who he used to be. He was just a lamb to be slaughtered by the casino.
At this point, so what if he was the richest man? So what if he was a high-ranking official?
When a gambler in this state went to the gambling table, his thinking ability was even worse than that of a primary school student.
In a person's life, betting on important things once or twice was bold and decisive. If he relied on his impulse to gamble on everything, he would be a gambler.
A small amount of gambling was pleasant, but a large amount of gambling was harmful to the body. Career came first, and family came first.
Li He gave the box of chips to Su Ming. He strolled around, looking for the right opportunity to try his luck.
He had been standing in front of a Texas table for half an hour. Many people had come to this table, and when they left, most of them did not take a single chip with them. However, there were a few lucky ones who won a lot and left with satisfaction. Now, there were only four people left at the table.
This table was the biggest bet that Li He had encountered. They were all blind bets. At this level of the table, there were already many professional players. There were very few fish. The so-called fish was "the meat on the chopping block."
There were no small chips on the table. They were all black 100 chips.
However, these were not the big bets. The bigger bets were usually in the VIP lounge.
If Li He had to use "three representatives" to describe the profound Chinese culture, his choices were: Mahjong, Tie Jinhua, and Fight the Landlord.
They always represented the development requirements of China's entertainment industry, always represented the direction of China's society, and always represented the fundamental interests of the vast majority of people in China.
However, these three representatives were rampant in the mainland, but they did not prosper in Macau.
What was popular in Macau were: Baccarat, slot machines, and Texas poker.
Of all the poker games, there was no poker game more risky than Texas poker. You had to treat every hand carefully, because any inadvertent mistake could make you lose everything.
Many professional players did not dare to touch this game. Their psychology and the money in their pockets could not afford such ups and downs.
In a more advanced place, millions or even tens of millions of chips were pushed around the table by everyone. A hand usually only took three to five minutes.
Yes, five minutes. In just five minutes, a hand of cards could create a new multimillionaire, or let a multimillionaire go bankrupt five minutes ago.
Li He saw a middle-aged man cursing as he got off the table and sat down directly in an empty seat.
Li He just wanted to see how good he was at this level.
Moreover, he only knew how to play. He was best at Snake and Texas poker.
The Snake game on the old Nokia had basically made him play to death. He could slowly eat beans and grow, or he could move coquettishly. He could play any way he wanted, and the rhythm could not be stopped at all. If he didn't want to die, he had to pay attention to his own tail.
Texas poker Li He could not say that he was very good at it, but at least he was not bad. This was a game of balance and calculation. It was a game of courage and shrewdness. However, Li He was often more than calculating, but he lacked courage. He usually liked to play with his colleagues.
