In the afternoon, Krisna and the other two returned home after class and were a little worried when they heard about Willard and his wife's gambling plan.
Especially since Desia had pledged 2 million and had to lend them 200,000, she felt that the money would be wasted.
But Willard waved his hand and said: "Don't be afraid, it's more than 2 million, which is only a few hundred thousand euros. After I play for another year, I will transfer to Europe. By then, my annual salary will be at least 1 million euros. A deficit of hundreds of thousands is not a problem at all. And once you win, it will be your own money, and Alyssa and Bertha can also take it back to subsidize their families. It is definitely worth the gamble."
Considering that Velarde scored consecutive goals and had an assist in two Copa Libertadores qualifying games, and that Hurricanes Atletico Madrid beat the Lima League 6-0 in two rounds in two rounds, I finally decided to take a gamble.
As Willard said, if he loses, Willard can afford to lose.
And once they win, they will be able to achieve financial freedom and be able to subsidize their families. Especially Reth Bertha, even after spending time together at home during the holidays, she still has not been forgiven by her father, and the father and daughter are still in a cold war.
If you can subsidize your family financially, it will surely ease a lot. Although money is not everything, at least it has nine thousand powers.
Heidi Alyssa also thinks the same way. She has money in her pocket and no panic in her heart. If her relationship with Willard is exposed to her family, she will be able to convince her family more effectively.
Subsequently, the Hurricanes Athletic Team resumed daily training and prepared for the first round of the A-League match. Daicia also took Krisina, Alyssa, and Bertha to the gambling site with the manpower arranged by her father. company, bought lottery tickets for the Hurricanes Athletic Team to win the championship.
Although there are usually die-hard Hurricanes fans who come to buy lottery tickets for the Hurricanes to win the Spanish League championship, the Argentinian Cup, or the Libertadores Cup, but the tickets are only thirty to fifty, one to two hundred, or at most a few thousand pesos. Buying tens of thousands of pesos is considered a big deal.
As a result, the four of them plus the subordinates arranged by Henderson bought a super heavy bet of 7.3 million pesos in total. Once the bet is won, the bookmaker will pay out 876 million, which is too scary.
This heavy bet immediately alerted the top executives of the gaming company, and they personally received Desia and her party.
After learning that Desia was the daughter of Simpson Henderson, the person in charge of the bookmaker was surprised, but then he gave up on the idea of making small moves and accepted the big order.
It’s not that the bookmaker is not as powerful as Simpson Henderson, but it’s not necessary. After your business has reached this level, you are just seeking money and there is no need to go all out.
If the money of the Simpson Hendersons and his daughter was hacked, there would definitely be a lot of trouble, and it was unnecessary. After all, they didn't think that Desia's bet would be successful.
However, after Desia and her entourage left, the gaming company immediately adjusted the winning odds of each team, and the odds of the Hurricanes Athletic Team were significantly reduced.
In fact, regardless of match-fixing, the odds of football betting companies are changing at any time. As time goes by, the competition progresses, and the proportion of funds bet on each team, the betting companies will change the odds. , regulation to ensure that no matter who wins in the end, the gaming company can make a profit, and make a huge profit.
For example, in La Liga, knowing that Real Madrid and Barcelona have the highest probability of winning, the betting companies will adjust the odds of Real Madrid and Barcelona to be very low. On the one hand, there will be fewer people buying, and on the other hand, even if they win, they will not be able to beat the betting company. A few bucks.
In order to prevent Real Madrid or Barcelona from winning the championship in the end, betting companies will adjust the winning odds of other teams very high to attract those with a gambler mentality to place bets, and ensure that they will not win in the end. The winning team's funds will be paid out to the people who bought the game, and there will still be a profit.
This is the operating principle of gaming companies, and insurance companies are similar. Actuaries are all responsible for this, and gaming companies will never lose money anyway.
Of course, for underground casinos that don’t have enough principal and a large capital pool, it’s possible that someone accidentally placed a big bet and won the bet, so they couldn’t afford the loss and had to run away.
Therefore, the gaming company chosen by Desia and her daughter is the largest gaming company in Argentina and has the strongest strength, which also means strong compensation capabilities and balancing capabilities.
Even if the Hendersons really buy the Hurricanes to win the championship, the bookmaker can still make back money from the purchase funds of other teams, reducing the risk of the bookmaker making extravagant moves and taking desperate risks.
Of course, Simpson Henderson's own strength also guarantees that the bookmaker will pay out the compensation if he wins. Although his funds are not as large as those of a bookmaker, his people are desperadoes, and they would not dare not pay compensation even if they win.
After all, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
Saturday, February 14, was also Valentine's Day, so Willard naturally had to express something.
Although his current income is not very high, and he doesn’t have much money in his pocket due to things like buying a house, furniture, lottery tickets, etc., Willard still tried his best and bought each of them a necklace and a bouquet of roses for them. .
Of course, Desia and others knew about Willard's current financial situation, and they didn't ask for any gifts. Willard can think of a bouquet of flowers and a necklace for each person, which is considered a very good performance.
That night, after a romantic candlelight dinner, Willard was soaked in rain and dew, and had an in-depth communication in each room. Finally, he fell asleep holding Heidi Alisa, who was the first to confirm the relationship.
After Valentine's Day, Sunday, February 15th, is the day of the first round of the A-League when Atletico Hurricanes challenged Santa Fe United away.
In the final stage of Group A B, Santa Fe United was the competitor of Atletico Hurricanes. The two sides were entangled in the first and second positions in the standings for several rounds. In the end, Atletico Hurricanes were in direct dialogue. Defeated the opponent and won the A-League Championship.
As a result, the two sides are now in the First Division. They met in the first round of the league. They can be regarded as enemies. Santa Fe United will definitely take revenge.
In fact, if Santa Fe United wants to take revenge, they only have the chance to play in this game, and there will be no second round.
With 30 teams, it would be unrealistic to play a double round-robin. Therefore, this season's A-League is a single round-robin with a total of 29 games, plus an extra derby game to increase the attraction of the event.
For example, Boca Juniors and River Plate, in addition to their own 29-round round-robin league, add a derby to each other to make up for 30 rounds.
The same is true for the Hurricanes Athletic Team. In addition to the 29 rounds of the single-round league, there is also a derby match with the arch-rival San Lorenzo.
This first round game is Santa Fe United's only opportunity for revenge, and it is also their home court. Santa Fe United will definitely not miss it.
Of course, the Hurricanes Athletic Team will not be in vain. They defeated each other in the A-League League, and they were equally successful in the A-League. They can even beat their opponents 4-0 away from home in the Copa Libertadores qualifiers, let alone their former losers in the A-League.
Even away from home.
At 19:00 in the evening on February 15, 2015, with the referee's whistle, the first round of the 2015 Argentine Serie A match between Atletico Hurricanes and Atletico Santa Fe officially began.
As both newly promoted teams, this game did not attract much attention at the A-League level. But for both teams, this is their first league game after being promoted to the First Division, so they naturally want to win and get off to a good start.
Especially since the two sides were still struggling in Group B of the A-League last season, they met again in the first game of the A-League, so naturally they had to fight hard.
Moreover, Santa Fe United's No. 7 center is still No. 9 Triverio of the Hurricanes Athletics. Because he had no position in the Hurricanes and could not play in the game, he transferred to Santa Fe United.
Such a marginal substitute who is not wanted by himself can play the starting center in Santa Fe United, which shows how far the strength gap between the two sides is.
In the game, this is actually the case. Although Trivilio worked very hard, he wanted to prove his strength in front of his former coaches and teammates, and prove how wrong Mario Binco was in not giving him more opportunities to play and not retaining him. But judging from the actual game, he was guarded by Velarde, Lucas, Domingos, Echeberria and others. He had very little temper. As a center, he had very few chances to successfully challenge for the top, let alone attack. The door is closed.
The same goes for other Santa Fe United offensive players. Facing the defense led by Willard, they were helpless and couldn't find an effective way to attack near the Hurricanes' penalty area.
On the other hand, Hurricane Athletics, while continuing to adhere to the 4231 formation, has enough defensive numbers in the midfield and backfield to resist Santa Fe United's offense outside the penalty area.
In addition, once they get the ball, with the offensive organizing ability of Velarde and Lucas, the Hurricanes can instantly form an effective and quick counterattack, threatening Santa Fe United's goal.
If it weren't for the bad luck in shooting today, the Hurricanes might have scored a goal soon.
But even so, Santa Fe United's goal failed to hold on until the end of the first half. In the 37th minute, Alejandro Romero broke through from the left and made a move to deceive the defender. But he suddenly cut inside, then dribbled laterally to the left corner of the penalty area, and suddenly took a long shot into the far corner of the goal.
The ball made a perfect arc, flew directly over the heads of the players on both sides of the penalty area, bypassed the fingers of goalkeeper Nereo Fernandez, went around the far post, and hit the inside side net. The goal stands.
Atletico Hurricanes led Santa Fe United 1-0 on the road before the end of the first half thanks to a goal from Alejandro Romero.
Santa Fe United, which was aiming for revenge, not only failed to avenge its defeat, but fell behind again in the score.
This made Santa Fe United players and fans very angry.
In the following minutes, Santa Fe United went on the offensive amidst the cheers of the home fans, attacking wave after wave, aiming to equalize the score before the end of the first half.
However, Verard's personal defensive ability is too strong, and his ability to direct his teammates to assist in defense is also superb. Santa Fe United's offense was basically resolved and invisible by Verard and his teammates.
In the 44th minute, No. 18 shadow forward Gamba got a good chance in the penalty area. He received a pass from midfielder Juan Rivas and got a shot in the penalty area only seven or eight meters away from the goal.
But Villard returned to the defense in time, and with a sliding tackle, he blocked his body in Gamba's shooting path, forcing Gamba who was about to volley to the ground with a strong volley, so he had to put his toes down and touch the ball. He instantly picked the ball up, trying to pass the ball over Willard's body, which was blocking the ground, and kicked the ball into the goal.
As a result, he took the ball too far and the ball hit the plane, grazing the crossbar and flying into the sky.
Velarde used a timely return to prevent Santa Fe United from having a chance to equalize the score.
This defense allowed Willard to win applause from the fans again.
Soon, the first half was over. The two sides entered the halftime break with a score of 0-1. The away team Hurricane Athletic temporarily led by one goal.
