Chapter 1251 Try again

“I’m going to be a big player, Raj is the assisting card counter, Sam controls the field.” Taylor ordered three people, gathered all the cards on the table and pushed them to Xiao Yao, “In order to prove that we did not cheat, you come Be the dealer!”

“No need!” Xiao Yao shook his head, “I want to observe on the side! I believe you will not cheat, let’s find someone else to be the dealer!”

“Let me come!” Yu Gang took the initiative to take the deck.

“Okay!” Xiao Yao got up and stood aside, letting Yu Gang sit down.

Laji and Sam dragged the chairs and sat opposite Yu Gang, but Taylor didn’t mean to sit down. Instead, Yan Ke and Sandra dragged the chairs and sat down.

“The big players do not enter the game at the beginning, and they wait for the signal from the card counter to enter the game.” Taylor explained, “Yan and Sandra play unfamiliar ordinary players. The effect is only to make the cards consume faster. It has nothing to do with us!”

“Understand!” Xiao Yao nodded.

Just after sitting down, he first added the remaining cards after Taylor added some new cards to the deck, and shuffled again. In this way, there are nine decks of cards in the entire deck. However, after shuffling, Yu Gang imitated the situation that Taylor had taken a part of the cards in the opening stage, took out some of the cards and put them aside, and then began to deal with the cards.

Five people played for a while, and after one of the rounds ended, Taylor suddenly smiled and said to Xiao Yao: “It’s time for me to enter!”

“Heh ” Xiao Yao smiled.

“Digression,” Taylor asked Xiao Yao again, “found how Raj notified me to enter the game?”

“He sent you a code!” Xiao Yao smiled.

“Then did you find out what the secret sign is?” Taylor asked.

“I know.” Xiao Yao nodded.

“Young, I don’t believe it!” Sandra exclaimed, “What do you say our secret sign is?”

“You don’t believe it?” Xiao Yao looked at Sandra in surprise, then looked at Taylor and others, “Don’t tell me that you only have one code, and the code used when you act is the same!”

Raj is the code used by putting his hands behind his back. From where Sandra is sitting, it should be impossible to see Raj’s code. Now Sandra wants Xiao Yao to give a signal, indicating that they probably have only one unified signal.

“There are many secret signs on the card table, and there is only one secret sign that informs her partner to enter the game.” Sandra replied to Xiao Yao, and then asked a little strangely, “It’s just to inform her partner to enter the game. Do we need many different secret signs? ?”

“No wonder you were all caught by the casino soon!” Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.

“Hello ” Sandra said dissatisfied, “You said we were caught by the casino because of the secret signal? Wait, did you really see our secret signal? You haven’t said what our secret signal is! ”

“The back of both hands, the left hand grasps the right wrist!” Xiao Yao turned around and made a gesture, then turned around and asked, “That’s right?”

“Yes!” Sandra nodded unwillingly, and then asked, “Why is this code bad?”

“First of all, this code is neither concealed nor natural!” Xiao Yao said, “This movement seems to be stretching? After sitting for a long time, people will move their bodies, but the normal movement when people stretch is one. Grab the palm of the other hand so that the strength of the shoulders on both sides is more even. Who would use one hand to grab the wrist of the other hand? Even if you do it behind your back, the dealer croupier can’t see it, but the casino is everywhere They are all surveillance cameras with dedicated surveillance personnel. If I were a casino surveillance personnel, I would definitely pay special attention to this action!”

“Secondly,” Xiao Yao continued, “This action of ciphering is not very clever and will attract the attention of casino monitoring personnel. You only have this action, which means that this action will occur repeatedly, which is even more fascinating. Attention. I heard that you did pretend when you went to the casino? With this action as a sign, it is useless for you to pretend!”

“It seems to make sense!” The people in the card counting group listened to Xiao Yao’s words, bowed their heads for a moment, and nodded.

“Maybe there is a reason for this.” Yan Ke said to Xiao Yao, “Maybe we should wait for you to come to the casino before going to the casino. You are an actor and a director. You can design us more concealed and natural secret codes. Come on, don’t you?”

The people in the card counting group are all math geniuses, not all-round geniuses. They are just interested in playing card counting, not professional gamblers. In other respects, they are unavoidable to be amateurs, and they are not so considerate. When it comes to disguising and designing secret actions, Xiao Yao, who has been a director and an actor, is obviously better than them in this respect.

“It’s not too late!” Taylor patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder and said, “When the other two assisting card counters are in place, you can redesign the password for your action team at that time.”

Xiao Yao smiled non-committal, and said to Taylor: “You should be on the court!”

“OK!” Taylor sat down and joined the game.

After Taylor joined, the amount of chips in each round was obviously larger than that of Raj and Sam. However, Xiao Yao did not just stare at him after Taylor joined. Instead, his focus was on Raj and Sam. There are more people.

In the next card game, Xiao Yao found that Raj’s performance was the same as before, but Sam occasionally made some suggestive actions, which seemed to be sending a signal to Taylor in stages. Whenever Sam made some hints, Taylor’s expression did not change, but the amount of bets would change. From this, Xiao Yao basically guessed the role of the so-called “control field” in the entire team.

After a period of gambling, Taylor’s chips in front of him obviously increased. At this time, Yu Gang took out a new deck of cards and shuffled some of them into the pile of cards dealt.

This is the second problem that Xiao Yao encountered just now. Xiao Yao frowned and focused more.

After adding some new cards, Xiao Yao found that Taylor’s bet amount was significantly smaller, but he did not give up directly. After a period of time, Sam gave Taylor a signal again, Taylor’s brows stretched out, the bet amount increased, returning to the level it had just started. Some time after the bet amount returned to a large amount, Taylor’s chips in front of him increased again.

Xiao Yao kept watching, seeing the position where Yu Gang inserted the new cards into the deck, so Xiao Yao could tell when all the newly inserted new cards were used up. When all the newly inserted new cards are used up, the remaining cards are the original cards.

Relatively speaking, the fewer cards left, the higher the accuracy of card counting estimation. After all the new cards inserted in the middle are used up, this interference item also disappears. In Xiao Yao’s view, the player’s odds of winning should be higher as he goes to the back, but it doesn’t mean that all the cards in his hand have been dealt, and Taylor waved his hand.

“It’s over?” Xiao Yao asked seeing that Yu Gang had stopped dealing cards.

“Yeah!” Taylor nodded, “Sam told me that it’s time to stop. At this time, I will get up and leave, and the two of them will play a few more before leaving! Those are not important, so you don’t have to show it to you! ”

“Understand!” Xiao Yao nodded.

“How is it?” Taylor pointed to the pile of chips in front of him on the table.

“It really needs teamwork.” Xiao Yao smiled.

The number of chips in the pile has changed obviously, and you don’t need to count it to know that Taylor must have won.

“We are already looking for an assistant card counter, and we should be able to find it soon.” Taylor said, “We will train you first in the past few days. On the one hand, we will train your big players’ abilities. In addition, Sam and the team will also be able to train you. Ji will be your assistant card counter for now, so you can practice teamwork together!”

“I just heard you say that big players can also be an auxiliary card counter,” Xiao Yao said, “Then can I be an auxiliary card counter?”

“Of course!” Taylor laughed, “but our allocation is one-on-one and multi-functional. When your big players are very proficient, we will consider teaching you how to be an auxiliary card counter.”

“Since you don’t have an auxiliary card counter with me, I want you to teach me how to be an auxiliary card counter!” Xiao Yao said, “I think, when I know what my partner is doing, how Doing it is more conducive to the cooperation between me and the two auxiliary card counters. When I practice group collaboration later, the efficiency will be higher.”

“This…” Taylor thought for a moment, nodded, “It’s okay!”

“Let’s start then!” Xiao Yao said.

“Hey, trick!” Sam interrupted, “What time is it?”

Xiao Yao looked out of the classroom window and found that it was getting late. Before they knew it, they had been playing in this classroom for an afternoon.

“For dinner, I still invite you!” Xiao Yao said.

“No, no,” Taylor shook his head repeatedly, “this time, we invite you!”

“Also,” Xiao Yao thought for a while and nodded, “But it’s okay to keep it simple. After we finish eating, shall we come back and continue?”

“Oh, my God!” Sam exaggerated, “Go on tonight? Are you Superman?”

“Yang, we have already counted it for a day today, everyone is very tired.” Yan Ke said, “You also learned a lot today, go back tonight to digest it, we will continue tomorrow!”

“Excuse me!” Xiao Yao reacted this time and said embarrassedly, “Thank you, for your hard work today! We will continue tomorrow!”

“If you don’t need to digest what you learned today, after dinner, we can take you to the bar to relax.” Sam walked over and patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder and said, “Cambridge’s bars are also very special!”

“Features?” Xiao Yao took a step back and said with a vigilant expression, “Will it be the kind of bar where you have to do an advanced math problem before ordering a glass of wine? Just like the restaurant where we eat at noon?”

“Huh, are you scared?” Sam laughed. “We really have that kind of specialty bar in Cambridge.”

“What are you afraid of?” Xiao Yao said, “I have money! I can do the same at noon. I don’t want to look at the price on the wine list, but I don’t want to pay more!”

“No, no,” Sandra laughed. “That bar is different from the restaurant where you eat at noon. The restaurant at noon has math problems on the menu. Even if you can’t count it, you can order whatever you want, regardless of the price. The math problem in that bar is at the door. If you can’t answer, you won’t even be able to get in, no matter how rich you are!”

“This,” Xiao Yao pretended to be angry, “You are discrimination!”

“Discrimination? What discrimination?” Sandra asked.

“IQ discrimination, no, it has nothing to do with IQ. This is academic discrimination, professional discrimination, and knowledge discrimination!” Xiao Yao said indignantly.

“Ha ” All the people in the card counting group laughed.

After the joke, everyone cleaned up and went out for dinner.

Supper was also eaten in an ordinary restaurant outside MIT. After eating, everyone went to the bar to play for a while. Whether it is a restaurant or a bar, it is not the kind of place where you need to master advanced mathematics to get service. Sandra and Sam are just joking.

Even if it is not the kind of bar that really needs to answer advanced math questions to enter, Xiao Yao found that the atmosphere in this bar is different from other places. Occasionally hearing the chatting content of the person next to me is actually a very profound math problem. But here is Cambridge, where there are world-renowned universities such as Harvard and MIT. It is not far from MIT. It is estimated that most of the people who come here are MIT students or teachers. This kind of atmosphere is normal.

Although Xiao Yao’s memory and mental arithmetic skills are very strong, he studied art and performance after all. He didn’t know much about advanced mathematics, so the people in the card counting group would naturally not pull Xiao Yao to talk about theories or theorems.

For MIT students, star actors and singers are very far away from them, and they are very interesting careers. For Xiao Yao, MIT, a school with a bigger brand than Shuimu, is also very mysterious. Through one day of contact, everyone is familiar with each other, and their perceptions of each other are good. With less estrangement and strangeness, they can understand each other’s lives.

Because of learning and training the next day, everyone did not play too late in the bar. Around ten o’clock in the evening, everyone left.

The next morning, Yan Ke still drove to the hotel to pick Xiao Yao to the school. After arriving in the activity room of the card counting group, everyone began to explain to Xiao Yao the two functions of assisting card counting people, the knowledge and skills they need to master, and how to cooperate in the three positions.

Yesterday everyone only taught Xiao Yao how to be a big player. Today I teach two types of auxiliary card counters: preliminary investigation and field control. It seems that the workload is twice that of yesterday, but due to the requirement of auxiliary card counters being higher than the big players Low, which involves less content, so this teaching time is about the same as yesterday.

Since there is no need to test Xiao Yao’s memory and mental arithmetic today, if it is only for teaching, it will not even be spent all morning. After teaching Xiao Yao how to be the two kinds of auxiliary card counters, he immediately carried out simulated actual combat training in the morning.

In the morning’s simulated actual combat training, others were the big players, and Xiao Yao served as the two auxiliary card counters respectively, which was regarded as an on-site test of Xiao Yao’s learning results. In the afternoon, Xiao Yao will act as a big player, and others will act as two kinds of auxiliary card counters to conduct teamwork and cooperation training.

The card counting group is not inactive at night. Usually there are classes or other things during the day, and sometimes activities and training are organized at night. However, it is summer vacation and there are a lot of daytime hours, so they don’t train at night.

After dinner, the people from the card counting team invited Xiao Yao to the bar again, but Xiao Yao did not agree this time. He returned to the hotel on the grounds that he had learned a lot today and needed to go back and digest it.

On the third day, it was still Yan Ke who brought Xiao Yao to the activity room of the card counting group.

The teaching tasks have been completed, and the remaining is skilled technology, so today’s plan is still to conduct actual combat simulation training for Xiao Yao.

After the   people arrived, Taylor took out the playing cards and chips and other tools, and said to Xiao Yao: “Yang, you are still a big player today, and Sam and Raj will help you!”

The card counting team positioned Xiao Yao as a big player. Yesterday, I taught Xiao Yao the knowledge and functions of the two kinds of auxiliary card counters, and also conducted half-day actual combat simulation training. Everyone felt that the training of Xiao Yao’s auxiliary card counters was enough, so today’s plan is to let Xiao Yao is a big player, training his skills and cooperating with others as a big player.

“No,” Xiao Yao shook his head, “I don’t want to assist, try to play alone again, just like the day before yesterday!”
