Chapter 5 5. Catch Deming out of thousands

We have been drinking outside for more than two hours, and we went in again after seeing a lot of people walking inside.It seems that the buddy who was in charge of the game also lost everything, but now Deming is in charge.A lot of people who have won money may have strict tutors, or they may have left because they were satisfied, but there are still a considerable number of people left.After the three of us came in, Deming didn't react at all, he just focused on pushing his Pai Gow. There are not many people who play, but they are all hardcore, and everyone who sits at the door has a lot of money in their hands.There are not many people throwing stones on the side, because there are not many opportunities to have a place to bet money, and most of the people sitting in the gate are fully bet.It seems that the midnight game is better.There are few people, and those who are willing to play bigger will appear at this time.

Once inside, I took the money out of my bag and was about to drop the stone.If my father came to tell me to stop playing, it would be unreasonable to say it in the mouth of a gambler. If there is a game, I will forget everything.From Deming's point of view, it can only be understood as my gambling addiction.I lost my due vigilance, stopped observing Deming, and focused all my attention on Xianjia below.Let me see which player is more worthy to satisfy me. The cards are covered tightly. In the end I chose the buddy who went out.He is worthy of prudence, and my style is similar, and the bet money is always free, so I have nothing to throw stones at him.After throwing the money away, I went to see Uncle Six to sleep.Uncle Six was snoring loudly, his sleeping position was weird, and a stream of saliva flowed down the corner of his mouth for a long time, even if I was asked to sleep like that, I couldn't do it even if I was killed.I took advantage of the free time when the bet was finished and the others were playing cards to poke Xiao Hai and ask him to come and see.Xiaohai is bad enough, when he saw Uncle Six's liberation shoes, he kicked him out of the room.It is this gap, I missed several places where the problem can be found.

At that time, it was also a small bet, three to five hundred yuan, and it was not taken seriously.Unknowingly, 2,000 yuan went in, and it seems that I didn't see a few money back, most of them were wandering around on capital preservation and losing.At this moment, the buddy sitting at the door said to me: "You come to sit at the door? I can't explain it when I come home too late from playing." Betting is also good, if you lose, you have an excuse to grab a banker to do it, and if you win, everyone is happy.I said: "Okay, I'll sit." After the buddy got up, I sat on the bench.

The buddy stood there sorting out the money, and said, "I won more than 20,000 yuan, but I lost it in your game, so I won't play anymore. You've been too lucky recently, and you can't beat you." Deming said noncommittally Shuffled the cards and said, "Why do you only see when I win? Why didn't you see when I lost?" In order to show off that I am a big family here, I took out another 10,000 yuan from my bag.I have a psychological bottom line for the current door-to-door player. The loss is subject to no more than 20,000 yuan, and I will stop playing when it reaches 20,000 yuan.

I bet 2,000 yuan or 3,000 yuan at will, and no matter who throws stones at my door and wants to see my cards, I will not show them.I played five or six hands before, and they were all normal. When I lost more than 10,000 yuan, I became a little focused. After all, I am not very reconciled to sitting on the door and losing.As soon as I focused, I found that Deming's shuffling seemed to be different from what I had seen before.Deming pushed and shuffled a lot, but the middle finger of his right hand always held a card. No matter how he shuffled it, the card never left his middle finger.After shuffling, he must first count the card on the middle finger of his right hand, and at least it will return to the left hand side, that is, the card that we push the first party.And Deming often does not push the second hand.

What card is that?Generally, if you want to master the card by pushing Pai Gow, you should put it in a position that is beneficial to you, and use the points of the dice to control which house the card goes to.And what everyone wants to control are natural cards, and if you can control a natural card, you will basically not lose.But he didn't use it after controlling it, which made me very interested.Occasionally, this explanation flashes through my mind: that is a little habit of his.But years of experience in playing cards immediately dispelled this idea.I'll have to find a chance to see what this card is.

It would definitely not be appropriate to look through it directly, so we can only wait for him to read it when he pushes the second hand.This kind of opportunity came quickly. Deming won the first hand, and he probably felt that the good luck continued, so he pushed the second hand.He took out two stacks to open the door, and the dice were played to the last card, so that the last card was distributed to Tianmen.The cards were dealt to me, and I quickly picked them up and matched them as quickly as possible.Although my cards were matched well, I still pretended that I didn't match them well and continued to hold them there.Out of the corner of my eye, I kept chasing the card and pouring it back and forth in the hands of the buddy from Tianmen, watching him pull it out and put another card on top of the two tail cards.I also drew my own cards and put them on the table for Deming to check.Deming's opening is 10 with 6, 6 heads long, 3 with 4, and 7 tails.The buddies of Tianmen are 4 with 6, 10 with 10 heads, 7 with ground and 9 tails with ground.Such a card is a match.That buddy was tossing back and forth, which made my eyes very tired.But I can only scold him secretly in my heart, look at his size, I can't afford to offend him.My Ah Q spirit is learned very well.

Deming's cards are 3, 4, 6, 10, which can be combined into 4 nods of 4 and 10, 9 o'clock tails of 3 and 6, or 6 heads and 7 tails, which are all normal combinations.But I was thinking: Is it because he knows that the land card has gone outside, so he has to chase the head hard?I'm not sure, because knowing where a card is doesn't matter to the banker or the player playing Pai Gow, the dice count.Deming saw that he had caught up with Tianmen's head. Although his tail was not as big as that of others and he didn't get Tianmen's money, he was still very proud. After I found out that Deming might be out of thousands, I exchanged it for a one-time bet of 1,000 yuan, and watched Deming's every move from the corner of my eye.Deming was shirtless and wore plain jeans.If you want to say that Pai Gow sits on the banker to make a thousand, it is nothing more than stealing cards and changing cards, and then watching how others match after sweating, or using the control of dice to distribute the big cards to your own home.I have studied it, and that Pai Gow is not a see-through Pai Gow, and the dice are also ordinary dice.How did Deming succeed?The most advanced Pai Gow I have ever played is to shuffle all the cards into two matching cards, and then know how others match by observing the way others match their cards, and then use the cards you get To decide whether to chase head or tail.But Deming doesn't seem to have this level.

The table where they push Pai Gow is actually an iron frame covered with a steel plate and covered with a piece of canvas. It is almost impossible to make fuss on this table.Stealing on the spot in the deck can't hide from my eyes, and Deming is shirtless. If he wants to hide cards, I can't tell where he can hide them.But considering that he put a land card last, there is only one explanation: he doesn't want a land card.Since he didn't want the land cards to appear, he must have his own intentions. Later, when Deming was out, I discovered his weakness.But I only discovered the flaw at the time, and didn't directly see his tricks.Because I am going out, it is difficult to find his tricks in this position.Moreover, his frequency of making thousand is very low. It can be said that he only makes one thousand once in five or six moves.

In that hand, he kept dragging the land cards with his right middle finger, put them on the left hand side, and then started to push the first hand.When he matched the cards, he also held the cards in front of his chest and looked at them with his hands, and separated the nines into the head and the tail, so that the four cards were still stacked together, and he held them in his left hand.When putting it down, put it directly on the table, and then separate it in two to indicate which is the head and which is the tail.There was nothing wrong with this kind of movement, but when he lowered it, he was too close to his body, which seemed a bit awkward.Everyone usually just send it forward and put it on the table.

But it’s okay for Deming to put it down along his body like this. Some people will put the cards down slowly after the cards are matched, but Deming is protecting it with his right hand.If other people also have the process of releasing in this way, the right hand may follow suit.But there is still a difference between the action of following and the action of guarding.And other people play very slowly like this, and the process of playing is all about looking at the faces of other people's matching cards, hoping to see something from the faces of others.But Deming played it fast, and he didn't even look at other people's faces, just concentrating on it. I sat out the door, just to Deming's right.What happened to him playing cards, I can't see.What can happen in such a short time? After everyone matched their cards, he started to flop.I noticed that he had a land card with 2 and 6, 8 nodding, and mixed 8 as a pair of tails.This will kill him three families.It seems that I can't continue to sit on the door. So far, I have lost almost 20,000 yuan.I felt that I had discovered something, so I stopped immediately, counted the remaining money and said: "I won't play, and if I lose again, I won't even have the travel expenses home." Give someone else to sit. I went out to pee on an excuse, and when I came back, I stood at the end door to watch the excitement, that is, to the left of Deming.Then his luck was very good, he basically played some good cards, and probably didn't need to play a thousand, so he didn't make any moves.In this way, six or seven hands were slowly pushed down, during which he still held a land card.In my opinion, he is ready to go out again at any time. Finally a card that didn't come very well and I got a good vantage point to see some of the moves he was making.He matched the cards and put them down along his body. Although it was fast, I saw it.If it were put down like this, the innermost card would be blocked by the belt button, but his card was not blocked when it touched the belt button, and went in.But Deming's movements didn't stop, the middle finger and ring finger of his right hand directly caught the card pushed out from the belt button, and continued walking until all the cards were placed on the table. That is to say, there was already a card in the belt button, and he used the advantage of walking along his body when releasing the cards to top out the cards he wanted to change with the unnecessary cards, and the unnecessary cards remained in the belt buttoned up.The size of the belt button seems to be custom-made for Pai Gow, just a circle bigger.Later I found out that the belt buckle runs through up and down, and there is a spring clip. The card spring that goes in is naturally stuck, but if you use another Pai Gow to top it, the spring clip will automatically give way, allowing the card there to come out, and then the strength will disappear. It automatically blocks the cards that come in.Just such a thing actually caused me to lose nearly 20,000 yuan.It seems that anyone who doesn't understand is a Kaizi, and I am no exception. I didn't have any expression on my face, and continued to pretend that I didn't see anything, and watched the excitement numbly.Deming showed his cards: 4 on the head with 5, 9 points, 8 on the tail, kong.Another kill. Deming held the stick proudly and said, "Damn, it's a pity. Your biggest tail is only 8 points." As he spoke, he pushed the two cards in his hand to show that they were all in the pile. , and pulled the cards that were not pushed in the second hand.But I clearly saw that the land card did not merge into the deck, and he skillfully kept the land card in his palm.Then he said: "Come on, keep betting. Lao Ye, look at you, who is digging and searching, can you cover the door full? If you don't have the money to cover it, let the space come out. People stand up and bet more than you." As he spoke, he casually pulled up his pants with both hands.Many people do this kind of action, but Deming raised his right hand at the front belt button, and once again completed the process of pushing the land card in and walking out with another card.Pai Gow is not big, one hand is enough to move one card back and forth like this.Judging by his proficiency, he should have worked hard.After switching out, he reached out to shuffle the cards, just in time to complete a series of actions.The cards exchanged in the hand are being shuffled together with other cards.And everyone's attention was more or less attracted to Lao Ye by his words.In fact, even if you are not attracted by his words, it is too difficult to find out. No one will notice that there is a card in his hand. It turns out that this is how I lost my money, but what can I do as a foreigner?Go up and expose?They are all from the same family, and it seems that it is not easy to turn their faces.I'm sure I can't beat them, and if they try to beat me up, I'll be miserable.But I'm still not reconciled to inputting almost 20,000 yuan in this way. After I understood everything, I left the house.There are still a lot of mazza outside, so I dragged one and sat there to cool off.Seeing that I had stopped playing, Xiaohai knew that something must be wrong, so he followed me.We were talking there.After a while, Deshui and Deben also came out and asked me why I stopped playing.I told them in detail about Deming's cheating.Deben seemed a little unconvinced and asked me what to do.I took out the rest of the money from my bag, handed it to him and said, "What can I do? I lost all the money, and I will return the rest of the money to you." Because he paid for the capital, and it was agreed at the beginning , If there is a problem with the game, he will lose it. We were studying together secretly, and Uncle Six came out to look for shoes.Seeing us huddled up there, we wobbled over to see who we were.After seeing it clearly, he asked us if we saw his shoes. We all said that we didn't see them, and he continued to look for his shoes while muttering something. Deben asked me what to do in such a situation.I said, "This is your boundary, so it's best not to ask me what to do. Make up your own mind, and I won't participate." Deshui asked me, "Then what would you do if it was in your boundary?" I said: "Expose him and get the money back." Deshui seemed to be a layman in gambling, and asked, "How to expose him?" I said, "Pull his belt." Deshui lit a cigarette and lowered his head. He groaned, as if thinking about what to do.I don't care, anyway, it's not my money to lose, it's just a little bit unwilling. Deben said: "How about this, third brother, you continue to bet, and when he changes you keep the cards for us to check." I said, "I will not do it." , He murmured to himself: "Then what should I do?" It seems that both players have no idea.I thought to myself: Who cares what you do?No matter what I do, I don't want to follow and participate. It's a matter between your family, so I don't want to make a fuss. De Shui pinched the cigarette fiercely, and said: "Deben, you go bet, and when you're done, check the cards. If you don't find out on the spot, you won't admit it even if you die like a rascal." Deben said: " I can bet, but I don’t know when to check the cards.” I said, “Isn’t there me? Let me tell you.” I asked him to go to the exit position to bet money, and I stood at the end gate.Deming changed, I will give him a hint.My reminder is to comb my hair. Watching me comb my hair, Deben will directly protect the second hand of cards and ask to check the cards.After checking in this way, it became clear that there was a land card missing in the card.It's okay for Deming to admit it, but if he doesn't admit it, he can find it in his belt buckle. But after finalizing, Deben hesitated again.The way he shrinks is really hateful, I really want to throw a Maza on his head.He said: "If you do this, what will happen if Deming hits me?" Hearing what he said, I knew he was a loser, and I even regretted coming to catch up with him. Xiaohai saw the signs, and said to him, "Don't go if you are afraid that he will beat you, and don't ask for the 20,000." Deshui supported Deben at the critical moment, and said, "With me, he dares not go?" Ask me for it." Seeing what Deshui said, Deben's courage grew a little bit. He straightened the money in his hand, stood up and said, "Then I'll deposit it." He entered the room after talking.De Shui also followed in.Xiaohai and I continued to chatter outside for a while, then walked in.When he entered, Deben was already betting on money.The bet is not much, 200 yuan once.Deben looked at Deming's hand without blinking.This idiot, how can he go to see others like this.De Shui stood behind De himself with a serious face. Seeing me come in, Deben always comes to see me.Although others didn't pay attention to us at all, I felt very awkward.I hurriedly took advantage of my spare time to wink at Deben, telling him not to look at Deming's hand all the time, but to look up at me occasionally.After I winked, I found that someone was looking at me with strange eyes.It's Uncle Six.He sat on the chair behind the door, didn't play, didn't partner with Deming, and didn't engage in Zhuangwaizhuang, so maybe his mind wasn't on the game of gambling.He looked at me with a puzzled expression, not understanding why I was winking at Deben, which made me very embarrassed.I deliberately didn't look at him, and rubbed my eyes to hide myself by pretending to be sleepy from staying up late. I waited intently for Deming to make a move, but Deming didn't even make a move after more than ten moves.At one point, I even wondered if I had surprised him, but it didn't look like he was talking and laughing happily, and he still dragged a land card to shuffle the cards.All I need is patience.But Deben didn't seem to have the patience. He kept looking at me, but I deliberately didn't meet his eyes and concentrated on watching everyone play.Because as soon as I went to see Deben, I could see Uncle Six staring at me. Finally, when Deming quickly put the unnecessary card into the belt buckle and exchanged for a land card, I immediately stretched out my right hand and brushed my hair exaggeratedly.But Deben didn't even come to see me, and concentrated on watching everyone match the cards.I couldn't wait for another chance, so I coughed to remind Deben to look at me.I was so disappointed by Deben's performance, he looked at my hair straightly, and then said immediately: "Don't move, the card is wrong." Because according to what I told him before, I have to wait for Deben Mingliang to play a good card. Reveal the land card and ask for a check.But at this time, everyone was matching, and no one showed their cards. If the players didn't show their cards, Deming certainly couldn't show their cards.I thought it might be that Deben was too nervous, but no matter how nervous he was, he couldn't directly shout his cards like this. After Deben yelled that sentence, everyone stopped, and they didn't understand why Deben made such a voice. Only Deming knew why he said that.Deming had already put the cards on the table at this time, but he picked them up again, without showing any panic, just holding the cards and asking Deben: "What's wrong? Tell me clearly." When speaking , the hand holding the card is close to the button of his belt.Seeing that Deming picked up the cards, Deben became anxious, and went up to grab the cards in Deming's hand.Deming saw that he was going to grab the cards in his hand, so of course he quit, so he tried his best to protect the cards from being snatched by him, and said, "What are you doing? You bastard, you want to be beaten?" He tried his best to break away from Deben. He pushed him away with his hand, then raised his foot and kicked Deben far away. After Deming kicked Deben away, he threw the Pai Gow on the table, went up and grabbed Deben, and said, "What do you mean? What do you mean!" Deben wanted to catch Deming, but he was naked Upper body, there is nowhere to start.When De Shui saw it, he felt that he should come forward, so he went up and grabbed Deming's wrist, and said, "Let me go." Deming didn't show weakness, and said, "What if I don't let go?" Shoving Deben.Everyone saw that it was messed up, and they didn't care about any cards, and quickly took all their money in their hands.Uncle Six quickly grabbed all of Deming's money.There are those who go up to persuade, and those who pull.It was something I never expected to turn into this situation by arresting others.This Deben is really stupid enough. Seeing that Deming would not let go, Deshui began to compete with Deming.The two began to tear up, Deming told Deshui to let go, Deshui asked Deming to let go, neither of them wanted to let go first, as if whoever let go first would lose to the other in terms of momentum.But both of them had about the same strength, and they didn't want to show weakness, so they became deadlocked.After a while, De Shui was out of breath, probably because he had not done physical work for a long time.Everyone wanted to pull them apart, but De Shui said: "Whoever dares to pull the wrong frame, I will kill him." After he said this, he stopped coming and watched.Of course I would not miss such an opportunity, I stretched my neck and looked hard. They were arguing and arguing.Deming said: "What's the matter with you?" De Shui said: "It's my business. If you cheat my friend's money, you don't give me face." Deshui said: "Why do you say I cheated your friend's money? Talk about it .” They grabbed each other’s wrists backwards, a bit like pushing hands in Tai Chi.I often see old men and women pushing like this in the park.It's just that they are catching, and they lack the aesthetic feeling of old men and old ladies playing.I said in my heart: Hit me, punch my face with my fist, kick my crotch with my foot, grab my hair, and scratch my face.However, they didn't mean that at all, and they looked so strange that they made people anxious.At this time, I remembered a sentence: You can make as little noise as possible.It may be the cry in the hearts of the spectators who encountered such a scene. The two of them stood in a stalemate for a long time, and neither of them twisted the other.The people on the side also saw that it was really impossible to fight, so they came up and pulled one at a time.The two of them also got down the steps and let go of each other.After Deshui was separated, instead of going to argue with Deming about stealing cards as I thought, he took out his phone and left angrily.We all heard him hang up the phone loudly outside and say: "Old Taoist (probably his nickname), bring me someone right away. I'm in XX village, come right away. Call more people." After hanging up the phone, Deshui He came back angrily, found a chair to sit on, and said, "Aren't you pretty good? I'll see how good you are later." After speaking, he sat there and panted heavily. Deming said: "Don't make that useless, as if I'm afraid of you. What's the point of calling someone? Can you kill me? Now, you can kill me now." , Stretching out his head to Deshui, that means asking him to hit him.De Shui didn't intend to hit him at all, and gasped, "My friends came all the way to me. I don't care if you cheat them out of money. I don't have to mess around here in the future." Deming saw that he was not good. Hit yourself and walk out the door.De Shui grabbed his wrist again and said, "Want to leave? Don't think of going out of this door unless you make it clear." So the two of them started another round of grabbing and shoving. Deming might have been frightened by Deshui's call in front of him, because Deshui had the strength to call someone to beat him, so he bowed his head in awe.He grabbed De Shui's wrist upside down and said, "Brother Shui, what do you want to do? Tell me what you mean. Calling someone to come is no skill." De Shui also grabbed his wrist upside down and said, panting: "Don't you know what I mean? Don't you know? It's not okay to lie to my friend for money." Deming said, "Come out and let's get it together." He said while pulling Deshui out.De Shui continued to pant and said, "Come out as soon as you come out." As they spoke, the two of them pushed and scratched and left the room together.But after the two of them went out, they didn't intend to do anything. They continued to chat and talk about each other's disobedience, and they were so anxious to death. They seem to have a tacit understanding, pulling each other farther and farther away from the house.The spectators who followed behind wanted to follow the spectators, but Deming was able to free up a finger to point to the spectators who wanted to follow the spectators and said, "Don't come here, it's our business." After that, he continued to entangle with Deshui Grabbing together, getting farther and farther away.Finally, the two stopped under a tree.It was dark, so I couldn't see clearly, but occasionally, with the help of the lights of passing vehicles on the national highway, I saw that the two of them stopped holding hands, one was lighting a cigarette, and the other was talking about something. When the two of them were communicating under the tree over there, the people around me were not idle, talking about it one after another.Some seemed to have not figured out the situation, and asked everywhere what happened; some seemed to have figured out the way, and they might have sensed whether Deben and Deshui had something to do with Deming, and they all asked Deben what happened. thing.Deben told them what it was like to catch Deming and change the cards.Hearing what Deben said, everyone said they would not let Deming go for a while, and wanted to get back the lost money. They communicated for more than half an hour, and walked back one after the other.Everyone gathered around, talking all kinds of things, and what they said was asking Deming to pay back the money. Deming didn't answer their questions, and asked, "Where's my money?" Uncle Six said, "I'll take it for you." As he spoke, he handed over Deming's money.Deming took the money and went into the house, and everyone gathered again.It seems that from the beginning to the end, no one checked the Pai Gow, they all watched the excitement.The Pai Gow was still placed on the table as usual, the player threw the same as before, and the second party on the table was still stacked there neatly without pushing.Deming put the money on the table and said, "Come here and tell me who lost how much." Everyone said how much they lost.I didn't speak, just watched, as if everything had nothing to do with me. But Deming didn’t think so. Seeing that I didn’t speak, he took the initiative to ask me, “How much did you lose, buddy?” I said, “18,600 yuan.” Then proceed to order the rest of the money.After ordering, he took out 20,000 yuan and said, "This is my capital." As he spoke, he put the money into his back pocket.The rest of the money was about 40,000 yuan. He threw it on the table and said, "I didn't get any more money. You can figure it out yourself." Said: "What the hell are you playing?" After falling, he left angrily, as if he had been greatly wronged. Uncle Liu saw that he had dropped the Pai Gow, so he hurried to pick it up, and said, "Why throw it away, I still want to sit in the dealership." He searched everywhere while talking.In such a dark night, where can I look for it? Judging by his old and dazed appearance, it seems that I can't find all of them. As soon as Deming left, everyone talked about how much money they had lost.Lao Ye is the fastest, holding the money in his hand, counting out his losses first, and then sharing them with everyone one by one.But in the end, it was still a messy account. Some people only got back a small part, and some didn't get it.Discuss with the person who took the money first before getting back a small part and not getting it, to see if it can be balanced.But those who took the money before all said that they only got back the money they lost, and didn't get any extra cents, which was not enough to go to Deming for it. When the accounts were almost settled, everyone began to discuss.Some said that Deming didn't have 20,000 yuan as the capital, but he should have made 14,000 yuan as the capital and took away 6,000 yuan more.Some asked Deming how he stole the cards.At this time, Deben stood up and spoke. He explained in detail how Deming changed cards secretly, as if he was a hero, and the more he talked, the more excited he became: "Don't look at me, I don't know how to gamble, but I haven't seen it before? Think It’s not easy to fool my eyes. It’s not easy to cheat the money from the buddies I brought. Don’t you know who I am, Deben? It’s not easy to lie to my buddies.” He said these words with great pride.If I was really his buddy who was cheated and he found the place like this, I would definitely cry with excitement.But at present, I am not in this role. I was invited by him to deceive people.The cheated money is not mine either.So I was not excited, and there was no turmoil in my heart.Everyone looked at me, I could only cover myself by smoking, and showed everyone a proud smile protected by friends.
