"I won, Ye Bo, you sell me the shares."
"I lost. Ye Bo, you can keep it for yourself or give it to someone else. I don't have any opinion."
Chapter 598 Dark Horse Italy
Du Wang Ye couldn't help being startled after hearing this.
'Betting on winning or losing, isn't it a bet? '
Seeing Ye Gambler's expression, Yang Chen grinned, he is not a fool, if he bet against Ye Gambler, no matter how much he wins, the other party will feel unhappy.
In case of losing too much, the old guy feels distressed and is unwilling to sell the shares to him, then it will be a waste of work.
Don't blame Yang Chen for worrying.
Gamblers, no matter how high their status is, they are the most untrustworthy and uncontrollable group of people.
Anyone who embarks on the road of gambling-gambling, all behaviors are out of control, thinking in his mind that he can't gamble anymore, but his hands and feet can't be controlled.
'If you lose, you want to get back your money, if you win, you want to double it. '
'Most gamblers want to gamble if they lose, and want to gamble even more if they win, so the deeper they get into, the more they gamble, the more they lose. '
Throughout the 5000-year history of China, gambling has entered people's lives since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
From the early cockfights to the present, there are various gambling methods in different forms. Looking at the north and south, inside and outside the Great Wall, from rural areas to cities, there is no place that lacks gambling.
Those who make a fortune by gambling can only win for a while.
Take Ye Gambler, for example, he is a very typical example.
The world says that he has superb gambling skills. He has various titles, such as the King of Gamblers and the Saint of Gamblers. However, did he earn most of his net worth by relying on his own gambling?
Obviously not.
If there was no gambling, no matter how powerful he was, Ye Han would not be able to accumulate billions of dollars.
'I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet. '
Don't say that nine out of ten bets lose, there are some people who only need to lose once to be a complete failure.
The lotus leaf dispute is the best proof.
Don't trust gamblers easily, and don't overestimate their appearance.
It's good that there are no conflicts of interest, but once conflicts of interest are involved, how much is face worth?
In order to make things difficult for his old rivals, Ye Gambler first opened a racetrack, and then opened a gambling boat.
From this point alone, it is not difficult to see that even if the other party is not a narrow-minded person, he is not a very generous person.
"Mr. Ye, Mr. Yang"
Soon, the person in charge of Caesars Palace, who had greeted Yang Chen at the door before, came in front of the two of them.
Without too much politeness, after greeting the two of them, Kuwes, the president of Caesars Palace, said: "Both, we only accept bets with a personal limit of no more than [-] million US dollars. You can take a look first. Pick a team and make a decision."
Before coming here, Kuves already knew the situation here, so he specially prepared a copy of the information of each team in the World Cup and brought them here.
As for why the upper limit of betting is limited, the main reason is that if the betting amount of two people is too large, the casino will take great risks.
Casinos and gaming companies are connected in series. Although most of the funds will flow to gaming companies, casinos also have to bear part of the risk.
The larger the funds, the greater the risk the casino takes.
Reputation is more important than anything else in regular casinos, and they will not smash their own signboards for the sake of short-term interests.
All kinds of tricks behind sports competitions have a long history. This World Cup is in Europe, and no matter how long the hands of American gaming companies are, they will not be able to reach it.
The world's gaming giants are located in the UK in Europe, Germany, Haojiang in Asia, and Las Vegas in the United States.
Football is played in the World Cup. Asian countries have always been a stinky player in football, and it has no influence on the World Cup.
Although the American gaming giants are powerful, the national football of the United States is rugby, and football is only the fifth-ranked sport for Americans.
Therefore, the gaming companies in Las Vegas also have little influence on football events.
If it can't be affected, then everyone will naturally not take too much risk. There is an upper limit. Within this range, even if someone wins a big one, it will at most make the gaming company earn a little less.
Kuweisi's words did not arouse the reaction of Yang Chen and Ye Gambler. As the gambler, Ye Han naturally knows the truth inside, and although Yang Chen doesn't know much about the dirty things inside, he also knows that any profiteering industry, There is nothing beyond human control.
Those well-known club stars in Europe and the United States in later generations are each worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions of euros. The sky-high transfer fees and annual salaries cannot be afforded by selling tickets and TV broadcasting rights alone.
Any industry needs to take certain risks, but bookmakers are not among them.
First of all, the bookmaker costs nothing beyond the paper and labor costs of printing the lottery tickets.
After the opening of the market, the odds of a game are set by the gaming company. Even if they cannot control the event, they can use the odds to ensure that they will not lose money.
Therefore, the money earned by the winner is obtained from the loser, while the gaming company only has more profits and less money, and there is no problem of losing money.
It's just that, betting on the championship team in advance like Yang Chen, there is a minimum limit on the odds, and it won't lower the odds to the minimum just because the market has a lot of pressure.
Of course, ordinary people definitely can't enjoy this kind of treatment. Only those like Yang Chen and Ye Gambler who can bet for tens of millions or hundreds of millions of bets will make the gaming company give up their profits.
At this time, Ye Han didn't gamble anymore, just like Yang Chen, he looked through the information of each team entering the World Cup.
Flipping through it for a while, Ye Gambler looked up at Yang Chen, and asked casually, "Ah Chen, do you think that team is good?"
Yang Chen asked back: "Uncle Ye, which one do you plan to bet on?"
Ye Gambler didn't hide it, and opened his mouth and said: "Germany, France, England, Italy, West Germany, Spain, no accident, the champions are nothing more than these few teams."
"Uh..." Yang Chen couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, "They're all strong European teams, not a single one from other regions." '
Yang Chen pretended not to know, and asked in confusion: "Why are Brazil and the defending champion Argentina team excluded?"
Gambler Ye closed the documents in his hand and explained with a smile: "Because the venue of this World Cup is Spain, do you think those European teams will let teams from other regions snatch away the championship?"
"Uh…"
'Nimma, what you said makes sense, but Yang Chen couldn't find a reason to refute it. '
Yang Chen pursed his lips and said, "Which team are you going to pick, Uncle Ye?"
"Germany" Ye Gambler didn't mean to be humble at all, and directly said the team he wanted to bet on.
World Cup champions over the years:
