Chapter 51 50. Stay away from street scams

In life, liars don't need such complicated dice to coax people around.For example, ten out of ten games in street stalls lie to you for money, or in other words, people can make you lose money by using the rules of the game.The same as gambling, liars use people's luck to lure you into the bait. Let me tell you about a street scam again.This scam is like this, the kid who set up the stall puts red, green and blue chess pieces in a bag for everyone to touch.Among them, there are 6 red pieces, 7 green pieces, and 8 blue pieces.The game stipulates that only 12 pieces can be touched at a time.You can grab 12 at a time, or touch them one by one.The boy spread a piece of paper on the ground, and there was a table on the paper. In the table, there were three possible combinations of numbers, such as 1, 4, 7; 1, 5, 6; 2, 5, 5; 2, 4, 6; 3, 3, 6; 3, 4, 5, and so on.Numbers correspond to the number of chess pieces of three colors, not to specific colors.For example, in the combination of 3, 4, and 5, if there are 3 pieces in any of the 12 pieces, and the other two pieces are 4 and 5 pieces, it is considered a win.If you bet on a combination other than 3, 4, and 5, all other combinations are considered wins. If you touch 3, 4, and 5, you will be fined 10 yuan according to the rules.

It just so happens that I have a buddy who also plays this, but the gameplay is slightly changed.The game he played was like this: put 8 white pieces and 8 black pieces in a pocket for everyone to touch.He also drew a table listing the possible combinations of the two sets of numbers.Anyone who comes to touch has to pay a handling fee of 10 yuan, and can only touch 5 chess pieces at a time.If you find 5 pieces that are all white, the stall owner will give you 100 yuan, if you touch 4 pieces that are all white, you will give 50 yuan, and if you touch 3 pieces that are all white, you will give 5 yuan.If White has less than 3 pieces, it is a white touch, and there is no reward.This is a matter of probabilistic calculations, and it is huge profits without paying a thousand dollars.The same is true for the game of three-color chess pieces. The chance of winning a bonus is very different from that of the banker.I personally think that although the algorithm of the game is different, the reason is the same, and they all use probability to win you.So it's better to stay away from such situations on the street in the future, otherwise this thing will wipe out all the money in your pocket.

There is a saying: Existence is reasonable.Don't be swayed by your assumptions, and don't get involved in any scams on the street.Without diamonds, how dare people take on porcelain work?Therefore, for those who dare to put the game in front of the public on the street, the bonus is definitely not for you.There are fools in this world, but they are definitely not those who set up the trap. Who could it be?you guess. As I write this, I think of another street scam, and by the way, let me talk about where this scam is. This is a fast-running endgame. Player A has four cards A, A, J, and J left in his hand; Player B has grass 2, square K, grass K, black K, grass Q, square Q, and red Q , grass 9, red 9, square 7, red 7, red 6, black 6, black 5, square 5, grass 4, square 4, grass 3.

The rule is that party B goes out first, the first card can only be played, and can be singled, paired, 5 cards in a straight, 5 cards in a flush, three cards, and three cards with two cards. Choose one at random, the problem in this round is, how can Party B win? I remember talking to Tokuko before, you must hit 6 first.Specifically, the first card is played with a 6 of hearts to see if the other party can pick it up.There is a style of play that is connected, and a style of play that is not connected.Singles a 6 of hearts, the remaining cards in the hand are 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 straight, 4, 5, 7, Q, K flush; 9 9, QQ, KK three pairs, club 2.

If Party A plays A and dies, if it plays J, it will be killed with Q.If Party A does not answer, Party B will play 6 or 3 again. The second card continues to play 6. At this time, there are: 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 7, 9, 9, Q, Q, Q, K, K, K, 2. The cards can be combined like this : Same suit 3 4 QK 2; 4, 5, 5, 7, 7, 9, 9, Q, Q, K, K; .Party B plays another heart with 9 each, and the remaining cards in the hand are 9, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 7, Q, Q, Q, K, K, K, 2.Or a combination of 4, 5, 5, 7, 7, Q, Q, K, K; 4 9 QK 2 flush.If A plays J, hit him with 3 4 QK 2 suited, and if A plays A, hit him with 4 9 QK 2 suited.The center of this scam is 2. If you choose Party B with more cards, he will tell you that the flower 2 is a special main card and cannot be connected in a flush; if you choose Party A with fewer cards, he will say A flush is allowed in the game rules.So how do you play and lose, choose what to lose.

Therefore, if you encounter this kind of game on the street in the future, you must first ask him whether the special main card 2 can appear in the flush, if you can, choose more, if not, you choose less, and win kill him.It's just that if you ask, they will definitely not play with you, and go where you like to be cool and cool, don't try to win a dime away from them. As common as these two scams are, there are two common poker tricks, which I'll cover here.The first is called the anointing method.This oil is not really the oil we eat or the oil burned by cars, nor does it mean the oil on the soles of the feet. Although I often do things that slip off the soles of the feet, I don’t do this oil, but if I don’t do it, it doesn’t mean that others don’t. Do it, in fact many people do it.The oil here refers to soap, not the soap that everyone often sees, but the yellow square soap that was used for laundry in the early years.When playing poker, some tricksters will soap the front of a certain poker, and then put the edited cards or the cards they want under the soaped cards when shuffling the cards. When cutting cards, it is easy to cut this card.

This is a bit like a tricked bridge, although it is not a bridge, but it has the same function as a bridge, and it is more concealed.Candles are also used instead of soap, but the effect is a bit poor. If you feel that there is a problem with poker, you can use the squeeze method to identify it: press the whole deck of cards hard, push it slightly in the wrong direction, it must be separated from a certain place, cut it from here, and take out the bottom of the top stack one sheet.Insert it into the card, repeat the process just now, do it several times in a row, if you can push that card out every time, that's it.

Cheaters are not so stupid, it is impossible to cheat you again and again, the key is to cheat you a few times, so it is more concealed. The other is called the broadside method.Although the same type of poker is produced by the same manufacturer, there are still very subtle differences between the two decks.Some scammers deliberately buy several more decks of the same brand and specifications, and first compare the two decks to find the difference, usually by comparing the width of the two decks.The difference in the width of the two decks is very slight, but it is enough to do tricks.Plus there are a lot of counterfeit brands of poker on the market, so it's easy to cheat like this.After comparing the width, the trickster will take out a specific card from the relatively wider deck and put it into the narrower deck, replacing it with a card of the same suit.In this way, when Sanjia cuts the cards, it is easy to cut them.There are also people who take advantage of the convenience of work (such as cutting tools in their hands) to re-cut a deck of poker, leaving one uncut, which simplifies the comparison procedure.

Pai Gow, Stare, Sangong, Bullfighting and other poker games are prone to broadside poker. Most of these games are played by cutting the cards to determine who starts to deal the cards.Take poker Pai Gow as an example, pick up a set of Pai Gow from poker, if the wider card is 5 or 9, put K (representing the natural card) under the wide-sided card when collecting the cards, and shuffle it casually Cards, these two cards are not shuffled, and the two cards are shuffled to the middle position by drawing, so that no matter who cuts the cards, it is easy to get caught, and if they are not careful, they will cut this relatively wide poker.

If you don't want people to cut it, put this broadside card on the bottom or top, so that it is not easy for others to cut it.Cutting cards always cuts to the same card, which inevitably makes people suspicious.So when betting small or to confuse other players, tricksters will shuffle the broadside cards to the bottom or top. Don't underestimate this card, whether it is oiled or widened, it is a knife that kills, a very sharp knife that kills without blood.
