Power and Wealth
Chapter 1254 – Win
One chip.
The smallest denomination casino chip.
The guests had been playing many rounds, and they did not see anyone who placed such a small bet.
The guests in front of the roulette table turned and saw that Dong Xuebing placed the bet. They recognized him. This young man had changed a casino chip with different currencies and small changes.
Fine…
He only got a chip.
But why is he betting on a single number? The possibility of winning is too low.
Everyone shook their heads. Some of them overheard Dong Xuebing boasting about winning a hundred million USD.
This guy is relying on his luck.
How are you going to win a hundred million USD like this?”
You will lose your final chip after this round. Although the payout for single-number bets is high, the risk is also high. The roulette wheel has 36 numbers, and your chances of winning are one out of thirty-six. You will not win unless you are extremely lucky.
“Mr. Dong.” Shen Xiaoyan felt the same.
Shen Xiaomei added. “You should not bet like this. Didn’t you hear what my sister said?”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “Yes. But it will take ages if I bet like what she said.”
“But the chances of you winning is too slim. You should bet on odd/even or color. Why did you bet on a single number?” Shen Xiaomei was anxious.
Zhang Longjuan laughed. “It’s the same.”
Shen Xiaomei grumbled. “He might as well go and play slots.”
Shen Xiaoyan pulled her sister. “The bet is placed, and it’s too late to take it back. Let’s watch first.”
The roulette wheel started spinning.
The small ball was dropped into the wheel. It bounced around in the wheel.
Everyone’s eyes were staring at the wheel without saying a word.
The wheel slowed and finally stopped. The small ball fell onto number 23, and Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei sighed.
Those who bet on black and odd won.
No one won on single-number bets.
“I told you so.” Shen Xiaomei said.
Dong Xuebing did not mind. He smiled and closed his eyes. “BACK 35 seconds.”
Everything flashed.
The female staff said. “This round is starting. Please keep your hands away from the…”
Dong Xuebing regained his senses, and his hand was stretched out. Time had returned to the point that he was about to place his bet. He moved his finger slightly and placed his chip on 23 instead of 22.
“Mr. Dong.”
“You should not bet like this. Didn’t you hear what my sister said?”
“You should bet on odd/even or color. Why did you bet on a single number?”
Shen Xiaomei repeated what she said, but Dong Xuebing did not reply. The dealer continued spinning the wheel.
The wheel started spinning, and this round started.
The small ball was dropped into the wheel, and it jumped about.
The roulette wheel slowed down, and they could see the numbers.
One second…
Two seconds…
Three seconds…
The small ball is going to stop.
The guests held their breaths.
“Stop… stop…”
“One more… move to the next number!”
Tat… tat… the ball bounced twice.
To everyone’s surprise, the ball dropped into the number 23 slot.
Shen Xiaomei was stunned. “We won!”
Shen Xiaoyan could not believe her eyes. “We won!”
Zhang Longjuan paused for a second and started laughing. “Well done!”
Dong Xuebing was the only person who bet on 23, and he attracted some of the crowd.
Wow… he won.
He is so lucky. But it’s a pity he only bet 1,000 USD.
The dealer had seen many people winning on single-number bets. She was not surprised. She smiled as she counted Dong Xuebing’s winnings. She gave him 36 chips. It was hard to hold 36 chips, and Dong Xuebing requested them to change it to 3 ten-thousand USD chips and six one-thousand chips.
Thirty-six thousand USD.
One thousand USD turned into thirty-six thousand USD.
Although it’s not a lot, they have some capital now.
Dong Xuebing held his chips and smiled. “I did not disappoint you. Haha… I am quite lucky today.”
Zhang Longjuan stroked his face. “You are getting proud. Haha…”
Dong Xuebing blushed. “Err… let’s continue.”
Shen Xiaoyan smiled and gave him a thumbs-up. “Are you continuing with roulette?”
Dong Xuebing nodded. “I just got familiar with the rules, and I am lucky. Let’s play a few more rounds.”
“Haha… Ok. I will cheer for you on the sidelines.” Zhang Longjuan said.
Dong Xuebing nodded and turned towards the roulette table. The dealer had finished giving out the winnings, and betting for the next round just started.
“Please place your bets.” The dealer smiled.
Everyone started placing their bets in the boxes in front of them.
The boxes allow the guests to drop their chips and bet on their desired numbers. If a player places small bets, he can place them directly on the table. For example, Dong Xuebing’s single chip bet earlier. Most people will place their chips in the boxes and take a number. After that, they will place their number on the table.
Dong Xuebing took a number too. He had dropped all his chips into a box.
Shen Xiaomei wanted to ask Dong Xuebing to bet smaller. But he dropped all his chips into the box before she could say anything.
“All in?” Shen Xiaomei stared at him.
Dong Xuebing nodded. “Yes. Everything.”
Shen Xiaoyan said. “Mr. Dong, are you sure?”
Dong Xuebing replied confidently. “If we are going to bet, bet big. Don’t worry.”
Zhang Longjuan did not say anything. She smiled as she watched him.
But Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei caught something from Dong Xuebing’s reply. They immediately reached out to pull him.
“Don’t…”
“Wait…”
But it was too late.
After the dealer asked the guests if they had placed their bets, Dong Xuebing placed his number on number 9. He is betting all his chips on a single number again.
That’s it.
They are going to lose everything.
Shen Xiaomei was speechless.
Other players turned and looked at Dong Xuebing.
No one plays like Dong Xuebing. It does not make sense.
This guy is using tactics to bet.
He is betting aimlessly.
He will lose everything in no time.
