There is still one third of the time until the end of this game. There are far fewer players still competing.

After all, it is indeed impossible for many people to reach 10,000. They may only have two or three thousand chips left. After deducting the initial exchange, there is not much. If you continue to lose, you might not even be able to redeem your own things. There are also some people who barely meet the standards and don’t want to take the risk anymore.

There are three types of players who continue to gamble. One is those who are impatient to lose and want to make a comeback. Second, we are still working hard to reach the standard. The third one is already stable, but still wants to mix in more chips before going to auction.

Wu Hui belongs to the last category.

He saw a rather interesting bet. Guess the ball.

Three bowls dunk a ball, then swap rotations, and finally let you guess which bowl has the ball under it. If you guess correctly, you will be given five hundred chips; if you guess wrong, you will be given five hundred chips.

It's not like gambling, it's more like magic.

And there are still many people betting, but basically they don’t see where the ball is.

Well, the technique is very subtle, and more importantly, there are many misleading things that make you think it is a flaw. You can probably win once or twice from one person, and if you add up, it's pretty good.

In fact, if you ignore this person's misleading and just guess, the accuracy may be higher. But in that case, there is a one-third chance of guessing it, and you will obviously suffer a loss.

He didn't feel that he could definitely see through this person's tactics, so he took a look and left.

The person doing magic is naturally the magician from Starlight Circus.

However, another person suddenly came up and said, "I've been watching for a long time. You use three methods in turn, so most people can't see through it. If you see through it, you can just change it and win two of their games, and you'll be gone." . But now, I have seen through all your tricks."

Magician: "...Then what do you want?"

"Play a game with me, or I will expose all your tricks to the public." This man's purpose was quickly exposed, or he didn't hide it at all. .

Suddenly, the magician was a little troubled. With his method of playing, he doesn’t earn chips very quickly. But the best thing is stability, so I have 8,000 chips in hand. After excluding the initial one thousand five hundred, we are still three thousand five hundred short of reaching the target.

In the end, I met this guy.

But the magician had no choice but to play with him. Losing a few hundred or a thousand can be considered a loss of money and avoidance of disaster.

As a level seven player, Magician's level in this game can be said to be almost at the bottom. It's just that this round was something he was good at, so he did well.

Now, it seems that someone is eyeing him like this.

I wonder if the magician's good luck can continue.

Wu Hui went around in a circle and won another five hundred. When he passed by again, the magician had already lost more than a thousand and went out with a livid face.

Looking at the two people, he thought thoughtfully, and then stepped forward and asked the two who had just finished, "Isn't it a bit boring for two people to play together? Why don't you add me as well?"

He certainly didn't mean to help the magician. However, these two people were both soft persimmons in Wu Hui's observation. And there are still some points on hand that can be squeezed.

Wu Hui would naturally not let go of such a perfect toy.

However, these two guys may not agree. The man who blackmailed the magician looked at Wu Hui, obviously hesitant. The magician looked like he didn't want to get involved.

"It's hard to make money now. Let's take a gamble and see each other's abilities. Maybe we can cooperate." Wu Hui said deceptive words.

At the same time, he stared at the magician for a while: "There is always no way out if you fight alone."

It's also rare that Wu Hui can use persuasion to trick people.

His eloquence cannot be said to be bad. It can only be said that Wu Hui is not good at distorting facts and is only good at persuading others with interests and reality. Help people settle accounts. But I won’t play the emotional card. However, the most important part of eloquence is playing the emotional card.

So he actually has eloquence, but it is only useful to smart people. Only smart people can eliminate emotional interference.

Although the magician and this blackmailer were relatively low among the three hundred people, they were definitely not stupid. What Wu Hui said actually makes sense. Of course, the specific bet is not

Betting also depends on the rules proposed by Wu Hui.

The rule proposed by Wu Hui is to guess the cards.

Each player has three cards in his hand, one of which is a dead card and the other two are live cards. In each round, each person takes turns turning over a card from the other person, and whoever turns over the dead card first loses. Whoever's raw cards are revealed also loses. The loser gives the other two 500 chips each.

It's a simple game, but before the game, you can guess which card is which by watching the other two people lay out their cards.

The magician was immediately moved. This is what he is best at.

The blackmailer frowned slightly and finally agreed to the rule. However, he began to speculate on Wu Hui's intentions. What on earth does this guy want to do?

Ha, as expected...

Wu Hui saw what he was thinking. This guy isn't actually good at making tricks, is he? Previously, I could only deduce the truth by observing the magician. If he was really good at cheating, there would be no need to blackmail him, and he would make no less money by breaking magic tricks than by blackmailing.

Are you afraid of being exposed now?

His observation and thinking skills are good, but he is somewhat unclear about the situation, and he is strong on the outside but incapable of doing anything at all. To put it bluntly, he is scheming and indecisive. At this time, why are you afraid of revealing your secret? Running away is the right way.

I hope to squeeze more chips from this guy.

Many times, some people have problems not with their IQ but with their character. Anyone who can get through here is not too stupid, but character flaws are inevitable. Smart people may be more likely to have flaws in their character, such as liking to argue, being overly confident, being overconfident and arrogant, etc.

Even if you realize it, you may not be able to correct it.

I estimate that I can win two or three games at most. Losing a game by a thousand points is not a lot.

When the game started, Wu Hui shuffled the cards in a very fancy way and placed them randomly while watching the blackmailer's movements out of the corner of his eye.

Sure enough, the hand is very slow and has many flaws. But there is still a very small chance that it was staged.

But...

It's better not to be too obvious.

The three of them take turns turning over a card. As a result, both Wu Hui and Magician decisively turned over one of his raw cards, directly defeating the blackmailer in the first game.

"One game may be luck, or it will happen again. If the cooperation is finalized, we will return the chips to you when the time comes." Wu Hui said.

"Tch...do you think I'm really stupid?" The blackmailer despised Wu Hui in his heart: "Oh, if you do it again, you'll do it again."

This time he could clearly see the location of Wu Hui's dead card. As for the magician, he really couldn't see through it. So he wanted to turn over Wu Hui's raw cards.

Then, reveal a dead card.

Wu Hui: "You're a bit unlucky. It's better not to come here again. Maybe we are not suitable for cooperation."

"Pfft, yes." The magician couldn't help laughing.

The blackmailer thought for a while and finally figured out something: "Just do it one last time. If it doesn't work, forget it."

This time the magician revealed another raw card to the blackmailer. Wu Hui turned over one of his raw cards. The blackmailer was delighted, thinking this meant Wu Hui didn't see through his deck this time.

But now if you go over Wu Hui's hand, one in two will get a dead card... You can't lose any more. It's safer to touch this person's hand first. Two thirds of them are fine. He probably didn't see through the remaining two.

Wait, I'm just taking chances, I'm a little lost.

ps (parts over 2,000 are not counted) Well, it’s really difficult to write about a battle of wits. My next book should be about a book that has less content about a battle of wits and more about passion. However, I haven’t decided yet what I will write in my next book. I might choose one of the worldviews in the Playwright game. Do you have any suggestions? Well, it’s a little early to think about the next book when I’m only halfway through it.
