Chapter 733 Casino Nemesis: The Six Great Ghost Kings Ye

"Oh my god, I guessed right again—"

"These six beautiful women are simply amazing!"

In the luxurious and bustling lobby of the Venetian casino, Gao Dongxu's table had become the center of the storm.

Cheers, gasps of amazement, and the crisp sound of stacked chips nearly lifted the golden dome. Six stunningly beautiful women, each with a distinct style yet equally radiant, seemed to have been kissed on the forehead by Lady Luck, each bet captivating everyone's attention and determining the flow of wealth.

The mountain of chips in front of them was ridiculously high. In addition to the original five million chips, Gao Dongxu had nearly ten million in profits that he had simply "scraped" from the casino. This astonishing luck and the huge flow of funds that followed had long exceeded the capacity of ordinary gambling tables and had thoroughly alarmed the casino's management.

The atmosphere in the monitoring room was heavy.

Countless high-definition screens were focused on Gao Dongxu and his six female companions from various angles. The chief security consultant, a middle-aged man with slightly graying temples and sharp, eagle-like eyes, frowned deeply, almost forming a knot. He repeatedly replayed, slowed down, and magnified every detail—their fingers, their eyes, their subtle movements, even the shape of their lips as they conversed.

“There were no unusual gestures.”

"There is no suspicious electronic signal interference."

"The dice cup and dice have been checked, there is absolutely no problem."

"They seem like newbies... or more like... guessing based on gut feeling?" a young monitor muttered incredulously.

The chief consultant took a deep breath and leaned back in his chair. He had been in this business for thirty years and had seen all sorts of experts and con artists, but what he was seeing was beyond his experience.

This isn't skill; it's pure, unreasonable, and incredible luck!
"Ghost King Leaf... and there are six of them..." he muttered to himself, his tone filled with helplessness and shock.

In Macau slang, "Ghost King Yip" refers to a customer whose luck is so good it's almost uncanny, as if the God of Gamblers, Yip Hon, has possessed him.

Encountering just one would be enough to give a casino a headache all night, but now six have appeared at once. Perhaps the man who has been surrounded by them is the real core? This is simply unheard of.

The casino's response mechanism was activated quickly.

The first person summoned was a broker surnamed Zhao, who was in charge of receiving Gao Dongxu and his group. The supervisor eagerly inquired, "Mr. Zhao, who exactly are these people? Is there anything special about them?"

The junket operator surnamed Zhao was also bewildered, wiping his sweat as he said, "Mr. Gao is just a high roller from the mainland. His registration information shows he has a clean background. These ladies are his friends... and it's their first time in Macau and a casino. They just said they wanted to experience it, but they didn't expect..." He hadn't expected that his so-called "experience" would turn the casino into an ATM.

If the soft approach didn't work, they could only try guiding him. A manager in an elegant suit, with impeccable manners, personally came to the gambling table, squeezed through the frenzied crowd, and respectfully invited Gao Dongxu: "Mr. Gao, ladies, the environment here is noisy. Why don't you move to our VIP room? It's more private, the service is more attentive, and there are no limits on the amount you can play."

Before he could finish speaking, the six women, who were in the midst of their excitement, almost unanimously refused:

"No, no! The atmosphere here is so much better!"

“Exactly, the VIP room is so quiet and boring, we like it here!” Ru Qing frowned and refused.

"It feels like my luck ran away after I moved to a different place!" Xiaoxue, her pretty face flushed with excitement, tilted her head and said earnestly.

Gao Dongxu simply shrugged and smiled at the manager, as if to say, "As long as they're happy, I'll listen to them."

The strategy of inviting guests to the VIP lounge failed.

The casino immediately resorted to its second tactic: replacing the dealer. This is a common method used by casinos to disrupt the rhythm of luck and apply psychological pressure. A serious-looking, experienced senior dealer replaced the young dealer who was already sweating profusely.

The new croupier was skilled and composed, attempting to dominate the scene with his presence.

However, today Lady Luck seems determined to side with the six beauties.

The dice cup was shaken and then turned down.

"Bet on big!" This time, Gu Shengnan took the lead, and she seemed to have found a rhythm.

Open the cup! Four, five, six, and fifteen o'clock big!
"Yay!" the women cheered, and the gamblers around them who had placed bets erupted in thunderous cheers, their chips surging towards them like a tidal wave.

Of course, good luck isn't always continuous; there are occasional wrong bets, causing much regret. But overall, the trend remains more wins than losses.

Each small setback only fueled their competitive spirit, making them more decisive in their next bet, and luck always seemed to smile upon them again at the next moment.

The chips are still accumulating at an alarming rate.

The newly appointed dealer was initially calm and composed, but after several consecutive wins, fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. He felt the dice cup in his hand was heavier than ever before, and each time he lifted it, it required immense courage, because the six pairs of beautiful eyes opposite him seemed to see through all illusions and point directly to the final answer.

He then had two or three more dealers, and without exception, they all lost.

The area around the gambling tables had gone completely wild. The other gamblers were flushed with excitement; they no longer thought for themselves, but simply watched the six women's every move. Whatever they bet on, everyone immediately followed suit, filling the maximum bet limit of two million Macau patacas per game on each table to the brim!

This is no longer just a gamble; it's more like a carnival led by luck.

Gao Dongxu remained calmly seated in the center, like a pillar of strength, or a king protected by his lucky stars. He watched them argue excitedly, then boldly place bets with 500,000 chips, watching them high-five and hug in victory, their faces radiant with unparalleled joy. The doting affection in his eyes was almost overflowing.

He knew the casino had run out of tricks. Faced with absolute luck, all skills and strategies seemed pale and powerless.

Tonight, the legend of the Venetian will be written by these six unparalleled beauties.

"Twenty million—" In the monitoring room, the casino manager frowned as he looked at the six women and Gao Dongxu on the big screen, as well as the other gamblers who were in a frenzy, and said helplessly.

"There's nothing we can do unless they give up on their own. Otherwise, we can only hold on until they run out of luck," the chief advisor said helplessly.

The casino manager nodded helplessly, beckoned someone over, and said, "Go ask the six ladies what drinks they'd like, change the lighting and background music, and cool down the casino—"

The chief consultant remained noncommittal about the manager's underhanded tactic. For gamblers who rely on luck, the only option was to wait until their luck ran out before making them give back their winnings.

To be honest, casinos are never worried about short-term wins and losses because mathematical probability always favors the house. Most customers who win large sums of chips eventually come back with even more money.

This is the well-known casino reflux theory in the industry.

In short, casinos are never afraid of you winning money; they're afraid that you'll win once and never come back.

Some might ask, if I win 20 million and immediately stop playing, will I be able to leave the casino with the money without any problems?
The answer is yes, but the process won't be that simple.

When you've won 20 million and want to quit gambling and leave, you'll encounter your first test: the casino's subtle attempts to retain you. These include various complimentary suite upgrades, dining vouchers, concert tickets, and other high-end services.

The goal is to get you to stay a few more days. This strategy is called "extended exposure time." According to big data, for every 24 hours that a high-stakes winner stays in the casino, the chance of the winner giving back their winnings increases by about 20%.

If soft persuasion fails, the casino will initiate a second step: a full identity verification process. It's important to know that when you want to exchange chips exceeding 500 million yuan, the casino will require complete proof of identity, proof of the source of funds, and conduct an anti-money laundering investigation.

This process typically takes two to eight hours, during which you remain in the casino environment. This is a legal requirement, not casino harassment.

There's a third hurdle: cash management. How do you take 20 million with you? Cash is too bulky and poses a significant risk to personal safety. Most winners choose bank transfers, which involves cross-border capital flows.

Moreover, casinos have an invisible "profile system" for million-dollar winners. This system records the winners' gambling habits, psychological characteristics, and personal information.

The casino evaluates each big winner, analyzing their return probability and expected payout amount. If the system determines you are a one-off winner—that is, a customer who doesn't return after winning—the casino will offer various membership cards and exclusive offers before you leave, and will regularly send text messages and emails to entice you to return.

To be honest, casinos are adept at understanding human nature. They know that the most effective weapon against winners isn't preventing them from leaving, but ensuring they'll return. There's a saying in the casino industry: "Letting a customer leave with winnings isn't scary; what's scary is letting them leave with the memory of winning."

The casino also has a special list called the Lucky Guest Tracking List. Guests who win more than five million are automatically added to this list, and the casino assigns a dedicated account manager to contact them regularly.

These account managers need to remember guests' personal preferences, family situations, and even information such as their spouse's birthday in order to build strong personal relationships. Regular follow-up calls, holiday cards, birthday gifts, and personalized invitations can increase the chances of guest return.

Therefore, the casino wasn't particularly worried about Gao Dongxu and the six women's incredible luck in dominating the game. After gathering and analyzing various data, the casino concluded that Gao Dongxu and his group weren't the kind of people who would win all at once.

As long as they remain at the Venetian, they may be able to give back the money they won today, or even earn more.

"Luck's all gone!" The chief consultant looked at the countless gamblers' wailing and regretful expressions on the big screen, as well as the six women who had made three wrong bets in a row, and were angry, annoyed, and pouting in complaint. His eyes brightened as he laughed.

"Alright, that's enough for today. I'm hungry, let's go eat—" At the same time, Gao Dongxu suddenly said with a smile, interrupting the six women's mutual complaints. He picked up a 10,000 chip and threw it to the dealer, while also handing a 500,000 chip to the Zhao-surname junket operator.

"Thank you, Young Master Gao—" The man surnamed Zhao immediately bowed with a beaming smile and expressed his gratitude.

"Is it alright to leave these chips to you to handle?" Gao Dongxu asked with a smile, looking at the broker surnamed Zhao.

“No problem, just give me an account, and the money will be in my account within half an hour,” Zhao Mazai assured him.
