Chapter 176: The horse stumbles

Views:

"It's Mr. Li from Hong Kong!"

A gambler who was watching said immediately.

"That's right, this Mr. Li is an executive of a Hong Kong-funded company in city n. He often comes here to gamble. I recognize him!"

"Hong Kong people have a much deeper understanding of horse racing betting than we do. There must be a reason for him not to gamble directly but to bet on peripherals. Maybe there must be a reason for him to bet like this!"

Another gambler nodded and said, it seems that Mr. Li knows a lot of people.

Hong Kong's horse racing has a much longer history than that of the mainland, and its understanding of the horse racing industry is not comparable to that of everyone in the mainland. He was the first to stand up, naturally based on his understanding of horse racing.

"That's right, this No. 1 Matthew Luo has been very lucky recently. He can beat Factory 9 in ten games. Why wouldn't I bet if someone gives me money!"

The sharp-mouthed Mr. Li laughed and said.

He happened to be one of the few people at the scene who liked to bet on horses. He saw the horse "Shura" at a glance, and when Fatty Zou placed his bet, he immediately followed suit.

There is almost no opponent for the No. 1 horse in the entire field. As long as the horse itself is strong enough and the rider performs steadily, there should be no suspense in this game.

With the first one comes the second one. Encouraged by Mr. Li at the beginning, more than ten people present soon placed their bets. The bets may be big or small, but they all followed Mr. Li and put pressure on them. Come to Fatty Zou.

Hearing everyone's discussion, Li Wei's expression suddenly changed.

Why does the situation seem to be one-sided? Everyone is betting on Fatty Zou, but almost no one is optimistic about Nie Cai

Could it be that... Nie Cai, the number three horse, really couldn't win? What a fart gamble!

She grabbed Nie Cai's arm, her face changed slightly, and she whispered: "It seems that everyone is very unfavorable about the horse you chose. What should I do?"

Originally, when Nie Cai and Fatty Zou were betting against each other, the worst possible outcome would be to lose all the two million they had just earned, which was equivalent to a wasted trip.

But now there are so many people betting on the outside, who can at least double their gambling capital. How can Nie Cai afford to pay this time

"Don't be afraid, haven't you heard of a dark horse? The coat color of this number three horse is black, maybe it is a dark horse!"

Nie Cai smiled and said.

He didn't seem to have any feelings about the one-sided situation at the scene. Instead, he looked calm and calm.

"Are you crazy? Are you not afraid at all? What if you lose!"

Li Wei gritted her teeth and said.

She knew that Nie Cai had just received a huge commission on advertising fees, but no matter how rich he was, he would not spend it like this. What was the difference between this and using money to waste money

"Haven't you heard that there is a shady secret in all gambling? The more popular the target, the more people bet on it. In the end, it was manipulated by the banker, and the popular target lost."

Nie Cai, however, was not worried and spoke confidently.

Seeing Nie Cai's confident look, Li Wei sighed and frowned slightly.

"I bet 30,000 chips on No. 3 Mazzolo to win."

She came here for an unannounced visit to the casino today, so she carried some cash with her in case of emergencies.

Now everyone is not optimistic about Nie Cai, and no one is betting on Nie Cai, so Li Wei simply gritted her teeth and placed the bet on Nie Cai. Even if she loses, she can still help Nie Cai.

The 30,000 yuan in cash was taken from the funds of Rule of Law Online. Although it was not her own money, it would be very troublesome to lose it all. She might even be embarrassed by Deputy Director Qin, and she would not even be reimbursed. Well reimbursed.

Seeing this, Nie Cai's face moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. He just patted Li Wei's shoulder gently.

"Shadow story? Do you think Hong Kong's gaming industry has been developing for so long and has matured so much that no one would think of you?"

Fatty Zou laughed and said to Nie Cai: "Don't forget, in addition to our two million bet, one of the losers will have to jump into the river. Don't be shameless then!"

He is still clicking on the additional bet from before. The situation of shady dealers does exist. The way to solve this problem is odds. It is much easier to make money with odds than to manipulate the game.

Nowadays, Fatty Zou and Nie Cai are deciding the outcome of the game. Putting aside the odds, they are just guessing. Fatty Zou has a much greater chance of winning than Nie Cai.

"Then we'll see."

Nie Cai looked at Fatty Zou, snorted coldly and said, "I'm just afraid that you'll forget about this. Just don't act shamelessly!"

Fatty Zou frowned angrily and was about to get angry when he saw countdown subtitles suddenly appear on the TV in the box, indicating that the horse racing had begun.

boom…

With an order, the stables of the racecourse opened in unison.

Living up to expectations, the racehorse "Shura" on track No. 1 stretched his figure, turned into a dark red wind, and rushed out at the lead.

Although the rest of the horses tried their best to catch up, they couldn't catch up with the "Shura" in front of them and could only follow behind and eat ashes.

"Matthew Rowe was already half a length ahead in the first race. His condition today is really good. It seems that he will continue to dominate the Sha Tin Racecourse..."

On the TV, the commentator's voice was excited and he said loudly: "And the No. 3 horse 'Zorro', who dominated the field last year, has returned to the field, but he has lost his previous dominance. It is really a pity!"

A proud look appeared on Fatty Zou's face. It seemed that "Shura" actually performed beyond his level today, which gave him a lot of confidence.

According to the strength of so many horses present, as long as "Shura" can perform normally, there is at least a 70-80% chance of getting first place, not to mention that this "Shura" actually performed at a super level with the rider today, and the result of the competition is even more There is no suspense anymore.

As for Zorro, the No. 3 horse that Nie Cai has high hopes for? Due to Zorro's foot injury, Zorro is still struggling around sixth and seventh place. It seems that he can't even compete for the top three, let alone compete for the first place crown.

This Nie Cai knew nothing about horse racing, but he actually looked confident. When the results of the competition came out later, he would definitely humiliate him to avenge him!

"No. 1 Matthew Law is so strong, he is already one position ahead!"

Looking at the large LCD TV screen in the box, Li Wei said with an anxious look on her face.

"Running fast is worse than running steadily. What if something unexpected happens?"

Nie Cai stared at the LCD screen tightly and said.

The strength of the No. 3 horse "Zorro" is actually not weak. Although he suffered a disadvantage at the start, he slowly caught up behind him and even reached the fourth place.

However, after one minute of sitting, it seemed that more than half of the race had passed, but the number one horse "Shura" was running more and more bravely, and was even two positions ahead of the second place. Such a huge distance was impossible to directly Got it back.

"The overall situation has been decided. What do you think? Just pay for it and jump into the river!"

Fatty Zou laughed and said proudly to Nie Cai.

Winning money is the next best thing. Seeing Nie Cai jump into the cold winter river will definitely make him let out a breath of bad breath. This excruciating pleasure is much more refreshing than winning money!

Nie Cai's face was silent, he didn't speak, and his eyes were fixed on the big screen.

"about there… "

Nie Cheng whispered in a voice that only he could hear. At this moment, the situation in the racecourse suddenly changed!

When the No. 1 horse "Shura" was about a hundred meters away from the finish line, for some unknown reason, the horse suddenly stumbled and fell to its knees, slamming the rider to the ground and rolling to the side.

The racehorse on track No. 2 was closely following "Shura" and was about to sprint to the finish line. However, he was tripped by the fallen racehorse "Shura". He was so frightened that he stopped suddenly and his speed suddenly slowed down. .

"No way?"

Fatty Zou's expression changed, and he suddenly screamed something bad in his heart: "Horse No. 3 must not catch up!"

He kept praying in his heart, but things went against his wishes. No. 3 Mazzolo, who was originally ranked fourth, seemed to be on drugs. His speed was getting faster and faster, even surpassing No. 5, who was previously ranked third. "Good luck." "The horse race turned into a black light and rushed towards the finish line!

"It's incredible. The No. 3 horse Zorro finally regained his strength after his comeback. In other words, he was so lucky that he actually fought back from fourth place and won the championship with half a body length. Congratulations to Zorro and his riders!”

The commentator on the TV spoke excitedly and was very emotional.

However, in the box, there was a large group of people, but no one was talking. It was as quiet as death!

How is it possible that the No. 3 horse is actually the first

Nie Cai, who seemed to know nothing about gambling, unexpectedly hit the No. 3 horse "Zorro" by chance, and won the gamble even though no one was optimistic about it!

Even if horse No. 1 fell down, why was horse No. 2 also affected

It’s no big deal that both horses No. 1 and 2 had accidents. What a coincidence. Even the No. 5 horse “Good Luck” also withered. At the last moment, he was overtaken by “Zorro” and handed over the first place.

This is almost the same as the chance of winning the lottery!

"I really made a mistake. It seems that this gentleman is a master!"

Mr. Li from Hong Kong sighed and said with emotion.

He just placed a small stake, just to join in the fun, and he wouldn't feel bad even if he lost.

After all, the people who can enter this VIP room are rich and will not break their bones for this peripheral gambling game.

Glancing at Fatty Zou next to him, he gloated: "Brother, it doesn't matter whether I win or lose, you will be miserable!"

He heard clearly just now that Fatty Zou kept saying that he wanted Nie Cai to lose money and jump into the river. But now the situation has changed, and the No. 1 horse race that seemed to be a sure winner actually lost his horse and fell. Now Fatty Zou is really miserable. Got it!

It doesn’t matter if you lose money, but you have to jump into a river in the middle of winter. It’s weird if you don’t save your life!

"Impossible, you... you must be tricking me!"

Thinking of the cold Yongjiang River outside, Fatty Zou seemed to shiver and said.
