Luke smiled and rubbed her head: "Be careful, don't let anyone steal your bag."
Selina just waved, looking like she didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Luke stood up and went to the counter to exchange chips for 10,000 US dollars, and then went to the blackjack table.
He found an empty seat and sat down, then started placing bets.
An hour later, the chips in front of him had become more than 30,000 US dollars.
However, no one paid much attention to him, not even the dealer.
Here, it is not uncommon for those who are lucky to make one thousand dollars into one hundred thousand dollars in an hour.
Luke didn't pursue winning every time. As long as the points were enough, he would not care. It was purely a gamble on chance.
Relying on the storage space, he has fewer violent encounters than others, and his points are generally larger, so naturally he wins more and loses less, but it is not noticeable.
Suddenly, someone walked over and sat down diagonally opposite him.
Luke looked sideways and suddenly wanted to laugh: Why did this guy come here? Doesn't he always like to go to Caesars Palace
Although the Aurora Hotel and Caesars Palace are of the same level in Las Vegas, there are still differences in their styles.
Aurora is known for being new, cool, entertaining and changeable.
Caesars Palace Hotel is famous for its luxury, high grade, high standards and high level of service.
Therefore, people who care more about eating, drinking and having fun come back to the Aurora Hotel, while powerful people who want to show that they are noble and unique generally like to go to the Caesar Palace Hotel.
This can be roughly seen from the names of the two.
One is gorgeous and changeable, the other is luxurious and domineering.
However, Luke recognized the person who had just sat down, and even most of the people around recognized this new gambler, but this person obviously forgot about Luke.
His expression was so casual that Luke could easily smell the alcohol on him. There was also a strong scent of powder and perfume on him, and there was more than one kind.
Luke didn't even need to look closely to know that this man had just come into contact with at least three women, but had not yet returned to the room to fool around.
Since the other party didn't remember him, he wouldn't even say hello. This guy had a pretty bad temper.
Unlike the others, this guy came up with five thousand chips without even looking at the cards.
Luke followed the old rules and threw in five hundred chips. He only bet two or three hundred at the beginning, and then slowly increased the stakes after winning money.
This is also the same habit most people have after winning money.
After playing a few rounds, the new guy started to act weird: "This is boring. Go away and let me be the banker."
Dealer: "... Mr. Stark, please wait a moment. I can't make the decision on this matter."
Yes, the new show-off is Tony Stark.
This is a superhero on the justice side, but regardless of his personality, Luke doesn't want to get close to him and be stabbed in the heart by him.
Tony Stark's ego and pride in his nature make it impossible for him to get along normally with others.
Not to mention anything else, just look at the members of the Avengers Federation, which one of them is not an extraordinary person
If the other person is not a great beauty, how many superheroes can be responded to in a friendly way by him
Even if he admires you in his heart, he can't help but speak harshly to you. This is a typical tsundere genius.
Of course, it is also for this reason that he dares to fight against any enemy.
If anyone comes to destroy the earth, he will immediately invent a set of armor to counter that person. This is how rich and willful people are.
Just a few minutes later, Tony Stark took the dealer's seat.
The fat bodyguard leader named Happy didn't make any move. It was another bodyguard behind him who dealt the cards.
Tony Stark drank leisurely, and without even moving his hands, he gambled with a group of tourists present, including Luke.
A few minutes later, Tony suddenly looked strange and looked at Luke: "You, are you good at it?"
After Tony Stark took over the position of dealer, most of the tourists present lost, and only a few won some. Only Luke's winning and losing times were basically the same, but the only time he made a big bet, he won five thousand US dollars.
This is very abnormal.
Luke knew why.
Blackjack is one of the few games where you can win a lot of money just by calculation. For example, in the movie 21: Blackjack, a bunch of MIT geniuses used mathematical models and mental arithmetic to win a lot of money in Las Vegas.
Tony Stark may have already created a rudimentary version of Jarvis, and he is betting against tourists, not hotels, so no one will expose his tricks.
Luke knew that this guy had a miniature wireless headset in his ear. Maybe it was a primary version of Jarvis counting the cards for him.
Cheating
Does not exist.
How can it be considered cheating if the money is won by our own ability
Just like Luke, he uses the ability of storage space to store and retrieve items, and to exchange cards in the card box remotely, which is also a skill.
He has recently gradually explored the general characteristics of the storage space, one of which is the ability to store and retrieve items remotely, but only within a range of five meters.
In addition, the ability to collect and place objects remotely requires a high level of mental capacity.
Simply put, the lighter the object, the easier it is to fold and put away. Stationary objects are easier than moving objects, and things on the table are easier than things in your pocket.
A playing card, even a high-quality one sold in a Las Vegas hotel, weighs no more than five grams.
Luke could easily collect and put away items like this hundreds of times a night.
In response to Tony Stark's praise, he just smiled and said, "It's just luck."
Tony curled his lips: "Really? If you are so lucky, why do you only bet so little at a time?"
Luke chuckled: "It's just entertainment. Excessive gambling is bad for your physical and mental health."
Tony: "With these chips on the table, it's nothing."
Everyone: ... You think everyone is as rich as you.
Seeing Luke still smiling and saying nothing, Tony frowned. He suddenly felt that this young man was a little familiar.
His larynx moved twice, and Jarvis began to check Luke's identity.
After a moment, Tony Stark was stunned: "You, are you the little policeman in Houston?"
Luke smiled and said nothing.
He is a detective now, not a small policeman.
Tony looked odd.
He had previously spent a small amount of money to get this young policeman and his beautiful partner to Los Angeles.
But as the end of the year approached, he was busy attending those end-of-year art review gatherings and forgot about these two people.
Now, Luke had been in front of him for quite a while, but Tony just couldn't remember it.
"Interesting, you actually have money to come here to play, don't you want to be a policeman anymore?" Tony asked.
Luke: "I'm on vacation, so I'm going to take a few thousand dollars to play with. There must be hundreds of millions of people as rich as me in the United States."
Tony: ...That's true.
It would be abnormal for someone to come to Las Vegas and not spend thousands of dollars on gaming.
"Then let's make a bet." Tony said.
Luke was surprised: "Aren't we gambling now?"
Tony: "Just you and me."
Luke: “Whatever.”
