Atlantic City, Casino.
In the Arican roulette area, countless heads swayed in motion.
"Oh my God!"
"He must have won dozens of rounds by now, right?"
"Yes, they’ve already changed the dealer three tis, and he’s still winning!"
"This Oriental guy is unbelievable, almost every bet he places wins. Looking at the pile of chips in front of him, he’s probably won twenty to thirty million US Dollars by now. Could he be a cheat?"
"A cheat? Do you think it’s possible?"
"Why not?"
"Because the casino already had soone check the machines, and there’s nothing abnormal at all. How could he be cheating?"
"Exactly, the casino has several surveillance devices in every corner. If you could cheat under such scrutiny, I’d have to say you’re truly incredible!"
"He’s just sitting over there with a woman in his arms, never putting her down. You tell , how would he cheat?"
A group of people sneered at a white man who suspected Lu Li of cheating.
Since 1962, when Edward Thorp used certain thods to win a huge amount of money in casinos, casinos worldwide have been trying every way possible to prevent activities like card counting.
But with Arican roulette, these issues simply don’t exist.
After all, it’s purely a ga of luck.
And now, Lu Li has no way to cheat.
Everyone could only attribute his repeated successful bets to incredible luck.
So even believed Lu Li might be the "child of fortune" of this world.
Otherwise, how could he always bet correctly?
For example... now.
Lu Li casually threw 300,000 US Dollars worth of chips on the single number 3.
Then, the dealer, sweating all over, dropped the ivory ball again, and sure enough, it landed on number 3!
The crowd was again in an uproar.
"Holy Fack!"
"Did he just bet on a single number again?"
"Based on the 35 to 1 payout, with this 300,000 bet, he just won 10.5 million US Dollars in one go. Won’t the casino stop him?"
"If he keeps winning, this casino might just go bankrupt!"
The surrounding gamblers were in an uproar.
Even those who didn’t know Lu Li.
Even Julia Giannini and Shen Xia were visibly shocked.
By now, Julia Giannini, Shen Xia, and Qin Liang had stopped following the ga.
The main reason was that they were too shocked, wanting to see just how far Lu Li’s winning streak could go.
Zhang Guocheng, Xiaolin, and Wang Yu had also held their breaths in disbelief while looking at Lu Li, whose front was piled with chips.
...
On the other side, upon learning that Lu Li wasn’t cheating and the machines were fine, Mark Giannantonio returned to his office, intending to pay so money to journalists to write positive news about the casino.
Up until now, he hadn’t realized the magnitude of his earlier statent of "let Lu Li win as much as he wants."
In Mark Giannantonio’s mind, Lu Li winning hundreds of thousands to millions in a night was already a lot.
Because the casino doesn’t have unlimited betting.
For example, the Arican roulette still has a maximum bet of 300,000 each ti.
Besides, in such a pure luck ga, how could you keep betting correctly?
Fine, let’s assu you always bet correctly.
But it’s impossible to bet on a single number every ti, right?
There are betting limits.
It’s not possible to always bet on a single number.
So naturally, winning hundreds of thousands to millions in one night was already an overestimation for Mark Giannantonio.
While Mark Giannantonio was contemplating how to have the journalists write the article in his office.
Suddenly!
He noticed that downstairs near the Arican roulette, a crowd had gathered.
Nearly the entire casino, hundreds of guests, had gathered there.
Most importantly, the crowd was making exaggerated gestures, seemingly yelling about sothing.
A sudden bad premonition struck Mark Giannantonio’s mind.
He hurriedly picked up the phone to inquire about the situation from the staff downstairs, "Gab, what’s going on over there with the Arican roulette?"
The person who answered the phone was one of the two staff mbers from earlier, the shorter one.
There was a tremor in his voice, indicating fear, "Mr... Mr. Mark, I... I was hesitating whether to call you."
Mark Giannantonio was surprised, "Did sothing major happen?"
Gab replied with a slight sob, "That Oriental guy has probably already won tens of millions of US Dollars by now."
In shock, Mark Giannantonio stood up abruptly, "What? He won tens of millions of US Dollars in just half an hour? Why didn’t you tell earlier?"
Gab replied helplessly, "Sir, didn’t you just say that it doesn’t matter how much he wins tonight?"
Mark Giannantonio almost spat blood, cursing inwardly.
Fack, I really did say that.
But you can’t just let him win tens of millions in such a short ti!
If this keeps going, won’t the casino be driven to bankruptcy by that Oriental young man?
And here I thought it was okay for him to win hundreds of thousands to millions in one night?
That was completely my wishful thinking!
At this mont, Mark Giannantonio finally realized how laughable his previous words were!
...
Downstairs.
Mark Giannantonio couldn’t sit still anymore, rushing all the way down from upstairs to try and stop this farce.
However, in just the short ti it took him to go downstairs, more chips had piled up in front of Lu Li.
Seeing this, Mark Giannantonio, who was near the Arican roulette table, turned green in the face.
If Lu Li continues winning like this...
As the casino’s chief executive, he’d definitely be fired by the company!
At this mont, the onlookers saw Lu Li win again and started buzzing.
"Oh my God!"
"This gentleman hit the mark again!"
"Do you think he’s won fifty million US dollars?"
"I think it’s far more. Earlier, he was playing small, but later he bet three hundred thousand dollars each ti. Even though he didn’t bet on a single number every ti, he still hit a few rounds. This round alone, he won ten million five hundred thousand US dollars. How much do you think he’s won now?"
"Hiss, could it be over a hundred million?"
"If that’s true, it’s terrifying!"
"Terrifying! It’s absolutely terrifying! If he continues playing like this all night, the casino will really have to shut down."
"The casino won’t let such a high roller continue like this, they will definitely find a way to handle it."
"You gotta admit, this guy’s luck is out of this world!"
"Yeah, winning dozens of rounds in a row, it’s amazing."
The nearby crowd kept discussing.
But Mark Giannantonio and the casino staff couldn’t watch any longer.
They used the opportunity at the end of this round to exchange a glance with the female dealer, indicating a change of dealers.
The female dealer, having worked in the casino for so long, understood imdiately, pretended to look a bit tired, and then bid farewell to Lu Li and the others.
As soon as the female dealer left,
Mark Giannantonio imdiately put on a smile and stepped forward, "Sir, can we talk?"
Lu Li looked over calmly and said with a smile, "Sure, may I ask who you are?"
Mark Giannantonio quickly introduced himself.
He originally intended to exchange so pleasantries with Lu Li and then suggest that he not continue gambling.
But unexpectedly, Lu Li jokingly said in the next sentence, "Oh? Why have you co to see ? Can’t afford to lose? Not planning to let play anymore?"
Zhang Guocheng nearly burst out laughing.
Julia Giannini, Shen Xia, and others were all stifling their laughter.
Upon hearing this, Mark Giannantonio almost spat out old blood, nearly cursing.
Damn it!
Who doesn’t know that’s my intention?
But how could he say such things in public?
If Mark Giannantonio dared to admit this in front of everyone, the casino wouldn’t need to stay open!
This was no joking matter.
If a casino admits it can only win and not lose, refusing to let winners play on,
This news spreading would surely be boycotted by gamblers worldwide.
There are so many casinos around the world.
Why would people co to play at yours?
Isn’t it because of credibility?
Admitting this would an losing all credibility.
Why would anyone co to play after that?
The other high-level executives who were about to speak to Lu Li following Mark Giannantonio now pretended to whisper to people nearby, seemingly discussing other matters, clearly not planning to engage with Lu Li.
Mark Giannantonio was left speechless!
Facing this "child of fortune" with unbelievable luck, and caught up in the banter, the high-level executives didn’t know how to continue talking to Lu Li.
Lu Li wasn’t oblivious, understanding their approach was quite polite already, otherwise, they could directly block him, and other casinos would receive the news as well.
He tapped the table with a smile, "I’m a little tired of playing. Mr. Mark, is there a place for to rest for a while?"
Mark Giannantonio understood why Lu Li said this, his eyes filled with gratitude, and he quickly said, "Yes! Yes! Please follow ."
Lu Li gave a nod, "Let’s go."
Mark Giannantonio was teary-eyed to see him willing to leave.
Fortunately.
Thankfully, you’re willing to stop.
Otherwise, he would definitely get fired by the board today.
...
Lu Li, accompanied by Julia Giannini, Shen Xia, and Qin Liang, arrived at the executive floor.
Mark Giannantonio, the casino’s chief executive, like a casino attendant, respectfully ushered them into the office, serving tea and water.
Lu Li knew what the other party wanted to say, but since they hadn’t spoken, he wouldn’t take the initiative to express anything again.
After hosting everyone, Mark Giannantonio cautiously said, "Mr. Lu, if you want to play even bigger, I can arrange for wealthy individuals to organize a private ga for you. But on our end, we’re really a small operation and can’t afford this. Could you please have rcy and give us a break?"
Seeing such a good attitude, Lu Li certainly wouldn’t press further.
He calmly nodded, "Alright, then could you help exchange the chips I won just now into cash and transfer it to my account?"
Mark Giannantonio hurriedly replied, "Okay, okay, please wait a mont, I will imdiately have soone check how many chips you have, then convert it to cash, and deposit it into your specified account."
After saying this, he sighed with relief inwardly, finally managing to see off this god of luck.
Truth be told, Mark Giannantonio genuinely didn’t want to acknowledge this loss.
However, Lu Li seed to have a close relationship with Julia Giannini from the California Consortium.
He really couldn’t afford to offend them.
He could only resign himself to accepting it.
Unlike Mark Giannantonio’s emotions.
Lu Li was pondering one thing at this mont.
Exactly how much did he win tonight in US dollars?
Hmm, he was too busy flirting with Julia Giannini earlier to even notice how much he had won.
