He Hongshen’s death, many since the media began to chase hot spots, then there is a word recently hot, called Kelly formula, gamblers can never win the casino. Because there are countless mathematicians and risk control experts behind the casino, how can you win. This statement is correct. After all, it is always correct to persuade people to quit gambling.
I just want to say something different. Of course, I also advise people to quit gambling, but at the same time, I also hope that readers can better understand the truth of the world.
First of all, what is a casino? The casino is a huge and complicated system. A set of addictive places that continue to devour the hopes of gamblers. Indeed, indulging in gambling is a terrible thing, and many people are ruined because of this. But back to the business logic, the casino actually wants someone to win money, because winning money is a live advertisement. If someone earns money, there will be more people to send money, and no one can make money. So what the casino has to do is to control its proportions and achieve its own controllability, which is what the casino asks mathematicians from all walks of life to do behind the scenes.
There are always people who make money by luck. The casino will not mind, but some people will try to steal control from the casino. This is very much the casino minds. You said, how is it possible that you don’t exist as mathematicians?
Looking back, the casino is a giant and complex system, not only with a large number of gambling games, but also with various new ways, exciting incentives, loyalty Membership system, and some distribution management platforms , of course, there are countless dealers working in the casino to support the family. Remember my bold part here, I will gradually tell you why you want to bold it later.
For comparison, Microsoft Windows is a huge and complicated operationAs a system, you said that Microsoft has a security expert and Microsoft’s programmers are not high-level, but you said that there are no security vulnerabilities in Microsoft’s Windows system. Will hackers find and invade the system and gain control of the system?
In fact, the logic is the same. A huge and complex system, in all information links, there are almost certainly some rigorous places that will be discovered and used by experts with ulterior motives and proficiency, This is related to information security Like a master hacking an operating system, do you have to enter the system through user authentication? uncertain. Where there are rules, there are rules loopholes, which are part of the truth of the world.
For example, the movie “Decisive Battle 21:00” describes the true history. Mathematicians challenge the story of 21:00. Of course, many people will say that it was before. This loophole has been made up long ago, and there has been no chance.
Well, when Microsoft announces the upgrade plan, it will tell you what vulnerabilities it fixes, but do you think there are no vulnerabilities when it is not announced? Maybe a few years later, some new casino loopholes have been exposed and patched. You will still say this, but today, really nobody knows those loopholes? There is a term in the field of information security called 0day. Do you think it does not exist in the casino? Moreover, if someone has mastered a casino 0day, will it be publicized everywhere?
Then I tell you the truth, how many casinos in this world do you know? Countless. I am only talking about compliance now. The so-called compliance means that you can win money, and you can take the money to leave after winning the money. There are huge gambling groups such as Genting, Sands, and many small workshop casinos, on land, online, and floating on the high seas.
Many people know that there is the Sands Hotel Casino in Singapore and the Genting Casino in Sentosa, but few people know that Singaporeans also have a place to gamble, called Happy Holidays, and take a barge from Dana Merah Pier A cruise ship on the high seas called Happy Holidays. The cruise ship does not go anywhere but stops on the high seas, which is actually the legendary gambling ship.
In fact, there are also in Hong Kong. It is in Victoria Harbour. It is anchored in the middle of the night. When we return to Hong Kong the next morning, the price is very cheap one night, which is cheaper than that of hotels in the city. It also includes buffets. Most of the world’s cruise ships actually have gambling business, and there are also some full-time people who earn their living by gambling.
What does that mean? Some big gambling groups are well-informed, deal with countless masters, and have paid no math fees.
