Survivorship Bias

    As expected, this gambling game is not just about luck, but people's hearts.

    "What a joke!"

    In the lobby, some people began to protest against such rules, "If this is the case, who wants to bet, everyone will go to the bet."

    The rabbit smiled, "There are a lot of gambling projects here, in fact, not every project can be played by multiple people, not to mention, each team can only have one person participating in the project, and People from other groups are betting. Do you think there must be a place for you here?"

    There will be people left, who have to be the chips of the teammates.

    "Then if... the team in the first group of last points has already been sacrificed, and the game is over, can they be resurrected?"

    The rabbit replied, "If it is the first place, then of course it is possible, nine people can survive."

    At the same time, the numbers on each of their heads suddenly stopped.

    There was an uproar in the hall, and everyone was checking their chip value.

    "Why do I only have 900?"

    "Isn't this calculated according to the value of life, your value is low."

    "Gosh I have 2 thousand!"

    "I'm 1000."

    An Wu Jiu looked up at himself.

    Ten thousand.

    A little more than he expected.

    “Don’t we need to occupy a project first?” Toutang Sakura tried to stop An Wujiu, “They have already started, if we don’t occupy it, will it not be our turn to participate?”

    "No, it's not the most important thing." An Wujiu was very decisive and left as soon as he said it.

    Tengtang Sakura didn't quite understand, but there was nothing she could do, she looked around and saw that everyone was checking the amount of chips above her head, she couldn't help but sighed and turned around to see the one being led by An Wugui The little sister who came in, she is also looking at the numbers on the heads of other people, and she is very serious.

    "Noah." She squatted down, smiled gently, and took Noah's hand, "Why are you here?"

    Noah's big eyes looked at her, "I'm here to find my mother."

    "Mom?" Toudou Sakura asked, "Isn't it, your mother is also at the altar?"

    Noah nodded.

    Tengtang Sakura was puzzled, "Then how did you survive? What level is this for you?"

     "Did someone take her?" The uncle on the side bent over and looked at the two of them.

    Noah hesitated, "Before... a brother took me, but then he, he..."

    "Dead?" Todo Sakura was very direct.

    Noah nodded, looking very sad.

    Tengtang Sakura consciously poked her sadness, so she reached out and touched her head, "What a good person. How come I never met such a good person at the altar..."

    Uncle smiled and straightened up, "I think our squad leader is pretty good."

    Hearing this, Toudou Sakura raised her head, and happened to see An Wujiu with a serious face and the others walking towards them quickly.

    This is indeed a great man.

    An Wujiu brought the others back, and they found a corner where no one was there to focus on.

    "Five hours and forty minutes left." An Wujiu confirmed the time, "Let's confirm everyone's chips."

    Zhong Yirou touched her hair: "I'm 3000, I don't feel much."

    Yang Erci: "6000."

    Noah whispered: "I have 1500, less than my sisters."

    Tengtang Sakura smiled and continued, "My sister is 2000, not much."

    "I am 1500," Nan Shan is not surprised at all, "Maybe because I have a congenital disease, the value of life is less."

    Wu You: "I'm 1000."

    It was normal, An Wujiu and Shen Ti knew the reason, he didn't say much.

    "I have 900." The uncle scratched his head embarrassedly, "Maybe it's because I still owe a debt in reality."

    An Wujiu said with concern, "Brother Chen, why are you in debt?"

    Brother Chen shook his head and sighed again, "My little daughter has Crohn's disease, and it is not very easy to treat. She is still in the hospital and needs to pay a large sum of money regularly. So I couldn't pay it off, so I took out an e-loan and owed more and more.

    Before I was desperate, I went to the underground gambling house to do tricks for others, and I was retaliated. I had no choice but to come here to hide from the limelight. By the way, I tried my luck. Can I bring some more money back to pay for the hospital bill? . "

    Although there are only a few words, but this brief summary, An Wujiu can also feel his hardship and helplessness.

    "Sorry, because of my personal reasons, the chips are a little short..." Brother Chen is very sorry.

    "What is this." Shen Ti said with a smile, "I'm only 500."

    I don't know why, it's obviously bad news, but An Wujiu finds it a little funny.

    “Are you so cheap?” An Wujiu turned to look at him, the usually cold brows were slightly dangling at this moment, there was a little more fresh beauty, the smile from the pupils It melted, and the crystal chandelier reflected in it, like two clumps of rippling moons.

    Shen Ti was a little dazed for a while, and when he regained his senses, he stretched out his hand and pretended to pinch his cheek angrily.

    "It's so cheap for me, buy me quickly."

    Wu You watched with disgust.

    "Okay, okay." Zhong Yirou clapped her hands, "Stop flirting, Erci and I just memorized all the projects."

    Just as Zhong Yirou was calling out the electronic note, the big screen that had been off in the hall suddenly turned on. Low.

    "Congratulations! Congrats to Player Maguire!"

    In an instant, under a cartoon sound effect, the chip leaderboard on the screen changed.

    Maguire jumped from 12th to 8th.

    He won 500 points just to start.

    "So soon?" Toudou Sakura frowned, looked at their gaming table, and suddenly heard screams.

    An Wujiu also followed the reputation and saw the blood all over the ground at first sight.

    In the pool of blood, he saw a man standing on the side of the gaming table, covering his arm in pain.

    No, no arms.

    "He, he..." Brother Chen was so frightened that his lips trembled, and he stepped back twice, "His arm is gone, the whole thing is gone."

      Terrible.

    Shen Ti coldly looked at Maguire who was not far away with the joy of the winner.

    He won five hundred chips with one bet, and also broke an arm of the other players.

    "It's not fair!" The captain of the group who lost his arm shouted with his head up, "Since 500 chips took my teammate's arm, then we will pay you five hundred, and you will Give him the arm back!"

    "That's not good."

    The smile in the rabbit's voice was full of irony, "Since you are a bargaining chip, you must give it away if you lose, otherwise it will be unfair, even if we give you this chance, whose 500 are you going to use? Chips back to his arm? Your own?"

     After listening to the rabbit, the captain lowered his head like this, clenched his fists, and stopped fighting.

      make such a selfless decision.

    I sacrifice myself for others, who will sacrifice myself for me?

    Seeing this scene, Tengtang Sakura had to admire An Wujiu's courage, if they really wanted to occupy the gaming table and start the game immediately, maybe the one who broke the arm and the foot now would be They are.

    "But..."

    The rabbit said again, as if to give them something great, "There is a lot of wine here, which is the punishment wine you drank before. Drink a little to relieve the pain. Of course. , you can also use the points on your account to heal teammates who have lost a certain part of their body."

    The rabbit tutted, "But the effect, of course, is a drop in the bucket."

    Noah shrank behind An Wujiu and grabbed the hem of his clothes, but did not speak.

    An Wujiu was afraid that she was too frightened to speak, so she told her not to look over there.

    Seeing this scene, everyone will panic even more, fearing as a bargaining chip, which is equivalent to handing their own lives into the hands of teammates.

    "Our stack distribution is now a step."

    An Wujiu said to everyone, "I just noticed that as a chip player, the chip leaderboard shows that his previous chip value is 3000, which means that Maguire just won Walked one-sixth of his chip value, equal to an arm."

    Yang Erci quickly understood what An Wujiu meant, and followed him, "If the situation just now was replaced by a player with 1,000 chips, it would be very scary."

    Others have thought of this possibility.

    What if it was only worth five hundred?

    Wu You observed it and saw that Maguire occupied the gambling table of the other side, and it seemed that he planned to continue gambling.

    "According to Maguire's strategy," Wu You said, "he may want to concentrate his chips and give him to bet, but he is the captain and has the right to decide."

    "Save my squad leader, I'll be gone in one game."

    "That's right." Nan Shan seemed to think of something and couldn't help laughing, "Will it just disappear?"

    "No." An Wujiu said to them, "Because too much chips will be very dangerous, so start with me, I have enough chips, even if I lose 500 like this, It's just a drop in the bucket, maybe a broken hand."

    "That's it??" Wu You firmly disagreed, "I don't want to do it, I can't just take you as a bet, if that's the case, I'll also be a bargaining chip."

    "It's me, I have six thousand." Yang Erci blocked Wu You.

    "Why are you doing this?" Toudou Sakura smiled, "Our group is too self-sacrificing, isn't it so positive? It hasn't started yet. See who is better at which project, calculate the odds and then discuss the bet, so that you can take the first place."

    "Xiaoyou, listen to me." An Wujiu said to everyone, "Of course our goal is to take the first place, but we have an advantage, you can watch the rankings."

    Listening to him, everyone looked up at the leaderboard.

    "The total amount of the entire chip pool is constant, that is, the number of all players added together. I just did a rough calculation, and in the initial chip value, the current total of the nine of us is the first One, which means there are a lot of low stack players on other teams.”

    Shen Ti leaned on An Wujiu and nodded, "If we go out now, there is a high probability that we will give away chips."

    "That's right." An Wujiu added, "but sooner or later we have to move, because the existence of people like Maguire, the possibility of his team making money will also increase, maybe Will catch up with us soon."

    Tengtang Sakura nodded, "And Zhou Yijue's team."

    Brother Chen asked: "Then what are we going to do now?"

    “Study.” An Wujiu looked at the gaming table, “There are some people in our team who are not often in the casino, first of all, we need to understand the rules of various gaming tables, and secondly, that is In the shortest possible time, observe and become familiar with the players most frequently sent to gamble in each team, and figure out their routines.”

    Wu You pressed the brim of her hat, "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle."

     Zhou Yijue, who was not far away, kept staring at their team.

    The little yellow-haired attendant came up and asked Zhou Yijue, "Brother Jue, what are you looking at?"

    Zhou Yijue raised the corner of her mouth, "Look at interesting things."

    "Their team doesn't move, and they don't participate in everyone's betting. Is it possible that they just want to end the game like this?"

     "Who knows?" Zhou Yijue crossed his arms around his chest, two cong sword eyebrows pressed against a pair of slightly squinted phoenix eyes, his face was kind, but he felt oppressive, "He may be trying to keep every teammate. ."

    He smiled, "Funny savior sentiment."

    "Go." Zhou Yijue turned his head and gave instructions to the people around him, "Invite them to participate in the game."

    "Tell them to pay double if they win."

    "Double, double?"

    "Yes, it's double." Zhou Yijue's mouth twitched slightly, "If we win, they have to pay us double."

    "But that An Wu Jiao looks very powerful..."

    "He won't go." Zhou Yijue concluded.
