The person who suddenly appeared next to Tang Xiu was Su Xiangfei.
In order to increase the study pressure for senior high school students, Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School deliberately increased the difficulty of the monthly exam questions. Therefore, the students of Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School did not generally achieve satisfactory results in the monthly exam this time.
Su Xiangfei's grades were mediocre originally. After the results of the monthly exam came out, he was on the verge of tears. It was not until he discovered that the grades of people in the class were generally low that he breathed a sigh of relief.
Even so, after Su Xiangfei saw his results, his mood fell into an unprecedented low. After finally staying up until the morning self-study was over, he immediately dragged two classmates to the Kanglong Club to vent.
What Su Xiangfei never expected was that he would meet an acquaintance in the game arcade, and this acquaintance was the person least likely to appear in such a place.
Tang Xiu just glanced at Su Xiangfei and then looked away, because the person in front of Tang Xiu had spent all his game coins and it was his turn to play the slot machine. Tang Xiu didn't want to delay his plan to make money because of Su Xiangfei.
Although all slot machines are pre-programmed and the winnings are random, it is difficult to find a sure way to win. However, after careful observation and careful calculation, Tang Xiu discovered that there are still some ways to increase the chance of winning the jackpot, or at least to win a certain reward.
In most cases, a jackpot will occur when a corresponding amount has been invested in a machine, and there is a good chance of winning the progressive jackpot.
With Tang Xiu's financial ability, it was naturally impossible for him to invest so many game coins alone, but this did not prevent him from winning the prize.
You must know that there are so many people queuing up to play slot machines in the game hall, and those people are obviously just here to vent, or they are here to try their luck. They have not read the lottery table, let alone studied the probability and rate of return.
Tang Xiu spent a whole hour studying the lottery table, and at the same time he was familiar with the accumulation of game coins of hundreds of slot machines in the game hall. When he silently observed and calculated the number of people queuing in front of the slot machines and After checking the number of game coins they might hold in their hands, Tang Xiu decisively chose to line up in front of this slot machine.
When the people in line in front of Tang Xiu finished all the game coins in their hands, Tang Xiu breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.
As long as there is a slight deviation in Tang Xiu's calculation, the accumulated prize pool of this slot machine has nothing to do with him.
Because you only need to put five more game coins into the game machine, and this slot machine will win.
For fear of being jumped in line, almost as soon as the person in front left, Tang Xiu put a game coin into the slot machine without hesitation, and then pressed the spin button.
Under Tang Xiu's action, the patterns in the three glass frames in the slot machine rotated rapidly. If a specific pattern appeared (for example, three of the same), money would be spit out. The more identical patterns appeared, the higher the bonus.
After a few seconds, the pattern stopped rotating, and the slot machine made no sound at all.
"Haha, you bumpkin, why are you moving so fast? Have you never played a slot machine? Playing a slot machine is not about moves, but about luck!" Seeing that one of Tang Xiu's game coins was wasted, Su Xiangfei couldn't help but Someone on the side burst into laughter.
Tang Xiu didn't even bother to look at Su Xiangfei. He threw another game coin in and pressed the spin button again.
After a few seconds, the pattern stopped spinning again, and then there was still no sound from the slot machine.
"I said, man, this machine seems to be broken. It only swallows money but does not spit out money. I have been watching it for half an hour and I haven't seen a single game coin protruding from it. I say you should not waste it on this slot machine. Game coins." Seeing that Tang Xiu had no reaction after tossing in coins twice in a row, a spectator nearby reminded him loudly.
Tang Xiu glanced at the other party gratefully, and then continued to take out the game coins from his trouser pocket.
"Tang Xiu, you are mentally ill. People have said there is something wrong with this machine, but you still throw money into this machine. Do you have too much money and no place to throw it?" Tang Xiu's reaction was clearly seen. In his eyes, Su Xiangfei couldn't help but muttered.
Tang Xiu ignored Su Xiangfei and continued to stuff game coins into the coin slot.
This time, Tang Xiu did not immediately press the "Spin" button, but pressed the "Add" button, and then inserted a coin into it again.
After repeating this twice, Tang Xiu put his finger on the "rotate" button.
The most exciting thing about slot machines is the jackpot. Not every slot machine game has a jackpot. Generally, if you play an English version of a casino game and see "progressiveslot", it means there is a jackpot. If you want to win the jackpot, A bet of three chips is required each time.
Once the progressive jackpot is won, all the game coins in the slot machine will be spit out.
The reason why Tang Xiu stuffed two game coins separately was because he wanted to make the biggest bet at the most appropriate time.
"Sure enough, he is mentally ill, and he is very ill. When we went over there to play, I felt panicked when I saw these idiots." Su Xiangfei was angry when he saw Tang Xiu ignoring him again and again. If it doesn't work, he muttered, turned around and left.
The next moment, Su Xiangfei stood motionless as if someone had cast a immobilizing spell.
Almost at the moment Su Xiang turned around, a clear tinkling sound came from his ears.
Su Xiangfei, who often plays in game arcades, knows very well that this is something special, and listening to the sound, it sounds like a lot of surprises.
Subconsciously, Tang Xiu's two consecutive raising actions flashed through Su Xiangfei's mind.
"The cumulative prize pool, he actually won the cumulative prize pool!" A ridiculous thought emerged from Su Xiangfei's mind, causing him to subconsciously exclaim.
When the slot machine made a crisp jingle, not only Su Xiangfei was stunned, but also everyone standing around the slot machine watching the excitement.
Because this time the sound of the slot machine took too long.
The noise made by the slot machine was so loud that not only other people playing games nearby were attracted, but also the owner of the game arcade was attracted.
"What's wrong? What happened? Did someone break my machine?" A middle-aged man with a slightly fat body shouted and squeezed in front of the slot machine.
When the middle-aged man saw the game coins all over the floor, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then he laughed and said: "Congratulations, little brother, this machine hasn't been successful for a month, and you have actually got good luck. , I guess I won tens of thousands this time, right?”
Facing the boss's warm smile, Tang Xiu was extremely uncomfortable. Shouldn't the other party show a very sad expression at this time, or simply say that there was something wrong with the slot machine, and then deny the large amount of game coins he had won
The next moment, Tang Xiu immediately understood the reason.
Because after the boss spoke to Tang Xiu with a smile on his face, he immediately turned his head to everyone in the game hall, "Everyone has seen that our Kanglong Club's slot machines are 100% fine. The investment is small and the profit is huge. It's amazing." It’s a huge profit. Apart from robbery, there is no other business that is more profitable than this.”
After hearing what the game arcade owner said, Tang Xiu sneered in his heart.
According to Tang Xiu's observation, the slot machines in the game hall have obviously been tampered with by the boss. Not only are the odds pitifully low, but the winning rate is also low.
The reason why the slot machine Tang Xiu was playing was abnormal was because there were too many people playing the slot machine today, and it was beyond the control of the boss.
Under the boss's powerful temptation, the game hall instantly boiled.
People who originally planned to just watch the fun also went to the bar to buy game coins. People who originally planned to buy a small amount of game coins to test the waters did not hesitate to increase their purchases. As for the hardcore players who were addicted to the game He even ran towards the bar waving a lot of money.
For a moment, the owner of the arcade smiled broadly.
"It's only 18,000 yuan. The owner of this game arcade is really stingy." After Tang Xiu counted the game coins in his hand, he couldn't help but curled his lips, then walked to the bar and exchanged the game coins for money. .
However, Tang Xiu did not convert all the game coins into money at once. Instead, he kept more than a hundred game coins and continued to play in the game hall.
"Brother, are you out of game coins? I'll give you some. Thank you for reminding me just now." When he happened to pass by a slot machine, Tang Xiu saw someone sighing in annoyance and was about to leave the slot machine. Tang Xiu smiled, and then He threw twenty game coins to the opponent.
The reason why Tang Xiu still remembers this man is, firstly, because this man was bald, and secondly, because so many people were watching him at that time, and only the bald man kindly reminded him.
"Ha... it's you. Thank you brother. If I win, I'll share half of the money with you." The bald man obviously didn't expect to be overjoyed. After seeing clearly that it was Tang Xiu, he took the game currency very simply and happily. started playing.
The bald head is obviously very addicted to gaming. He places the highest bet on almost every hand.
With just six hands, he threw all the game coins Tang Xiu gave him into the slot machine.
Just when the bald man thought that this time he was giving money to the arcade owner in vain, there was a sudden clang from the slot machine, and the next moment, the game coins spewed out.
"This...this...haha, I got it!" Looking at the game coins on the ground, the bald man cheered, and then he pounced on them.
Although the game coins that Baldhead won this time were not as many as Tang Xiu's, there were still four thousand game coins. Not only did he win back all the money he had lost during this period, but he also made a slight surplus. This naturally made him He was excited.
Of course, Baldhead was most happy that he finally won money from the game hall, instead of losing like a bottomless pit all the time, and the anger in his heart was vented.
"Brother, these game coins are all yours, let's continue playing." The bald man casually grabbed a handful of game coins, and then pushed all the remaining game coins to Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu wanted to refuse, but found that the bald head disappeared instantly. He had no choice but to put away all the game coins, and then went to the front desk to exchange a large number of game coins into banknotes.
Behind Tang Xiu, Su Xiangfei was dumbfounded.
You must know that Su Xiangfei often comes to Kanglong Club. He contributes almost all his pocket money to the game hall. Although Su Xiangfei can sometimes win some game coins, he will soon lose them again.
However, in just a few minutes while Su Xiangfei watched and followed Tang Xiu, Tang Xiu won nearly 20,000 game coins, and even received thousands of game coins as gifts, which made Su Xiangfei jealous.
