The God of Gambler - 玩命赌博法

I hate gamble, as I have a losing father that left me nothing but a bunch of debts. He is a great man until he indulged in this evil habit.

I love my father like everyone does, if I could have done better to improve my parents lifestyle, I would. Doesn’t matter I need to take may be another couple of years. I admire my mother so much and I promise myself I won’t do anything to hurt her feelings. My mother is the toughest women I have ever seen in the world, for what she has done and her sacrifices towards the family.

Gambling brought nothing but rupture to family relationship. I can still remember way back in secondary school, brother, sisters and I had to hide in the house upon returning from school. We hardly had outdoor activities. Father had left home without a word, and mother had to face all the debtors day by day. We heard life threatening words and foul languages from the money lenders everyday. There was nothing we can do besides helplessly accompany our heart broken mother in bewilderment. That was the darkest era in my life, I believe nothing would be worst than that.

I am glad I had the opportunity to study and graduate oversea, and consequently had a chance to step in casino for the very first time in my life. As I mentioned in the previous blog, I went there for supper, not to gamble. I admit I did spend few ten pounds on the gambling table just to experience the excitement and try to find a way to beat the game. Like others, I lose it all, and then I stop.

Quite a few friends knew I was good in math, so they did design a rather complicated matrix supported with tanglesome theory to ask my opinion. They were willing to pay me if I could come out with a “sure win” strategy. You don’t need complicated matrix to calculate the odds against winning, simple math will do, trust me. Forget what people say about some professional gamblers whose gamble for living, that simply the biggest myth in the world of gambler. Professional gambler only play with each other on a fair and square table, they play against each other, not the casino. They are playing pure psychology game instead of pure probability game like we play in the casino.

Some say you could beat black jack if you have super memory. That is not 100% true. The modern casinos even take that into calculation. Normally the house will shuffle 5 decks of cards before starts. As the game go along the way, when the playing cards getting less, maybe 40% of the total cards depending on the calculation, the house will put in another 5 decks of cards. This action will eliminate the chance of the clients to predict the remaining cards and hence increase the odd of winning. Yes, if you do have very good memory, it helps to increase the odd against winning, but based on mathematical calculation, the chances still favor to the house.

Roulette is another interesting game. If you go and search on internet, there are hundreds of thousands methods to beat the game. None of it works, either mathematically or mechanically. Greatest man ever exist on the planet, Albert Einstein once said: you cannot beat a roulette table unless you steal money from it. If you don’t believe it, feel free to send me an email and tell me your method, I will show you where did you missed. It is too tedious to show it here because it involves too many varieties.

Slot machine? Are you kidding me? You know how to count the odd, right?

In short, you can never beat the game in the long run, unless you have super luck.

Gamble is defined as a risk undertaken with a potential to gain. I define gamble as a risk undertaken to gain with potential luck. I don’t trust luck, I just don’t. Anything require only good luck to gain, worst still the odds against winner is less than 50%, I consider it as gamble. Let depreciate the definition of gamble, in reality, we gamble everyday. It is rather hard to differentiate a risk taker with a gambler. I hate to gamble but I must admit that I am a risk taker.

I am quite happy with my risk taker personality because it earns me my life, until I fall in love with someone.

When we truly fall in love, we scarify our time and money; we create our own illusion; we changed our dressing, our tone, our character, our hobby and almost anything. We turn ourselves into someone we don’t know, and risk in everything we could possibly offer. It is the biggest game we ever encounter and we feel panic as we don’t know what we can do. Bit by bit, our soul being mutated as well as our mind and at the end of the day, we become our own illusion, a puppet of our own imagination. We have nothing left within, everything has been given out.

Winner takes all and loser loses all. Complicated game, simple rules. We all know the risk, yet we still fall for it.

Risking the rest of our life to love, and, become the god of gambler.

相信最近大家都可以从不同管道听见这首歌。我听了这首歌,觉得很感动,也很有感触。 是因为动荡的政治局势吗?还是因为心里一直觉得这一片我们都深爱的土地没有真正承认华人成为“马来西亚人”的感触?又或者是西马人的心态还在下意识地将东马排除在外(到现在还是有西马人这样对我说:我们马来西亚人很少到沙巴砂拉越去,所以不知道沙巴砂拉越和马来西亚有什么不一样)? 当我们唱着这首歌时,意味着我们没有肤色之分,没有信仰之别,也没有区域的不一样。 我们,同样是马来西亚人。同样的深爱着我们的国家。 如果大家喜欢,可以到 这里 下载。

继续烦恼。。。

要换一台电脑?还是。。。 这个? 这个? 这个? 不然就这个? 或者这个也不错,:P 鱼与熊掌,所以,继续烦恼。。。

无法预知未来。

看见你五官标准四肢健全,就是父亲最大的欣慰。  从来没有想过生命的形成是如此美妙,那种喜悦是尖锐的,敏感的,内敛的,野马脱缰一般从身体每一个细胞奔腾倾泻,却始终无法以自身的面部表情显露出来。给一个蹩脚的缘由,可以说自己内向,可是真正的原因,或许只是我无法用有限的脸部表情来表达自己对新生命的惊叹和赞美。  或许只是自己不善言辞。  我无法预知未来。  将来你会以怎么样的一个形式和心情来看待这一系列的文字呢?无论你想要平平庸庸过着平淡的生活,还努力不懈地追求一些某种属于你生命中最重要的东西,我都希望这些写给未来的文字会带给你一点点启发。  孩子。未来是无法预知的,电影“Interstellar”提到只有爱和地心引力能够超越时空的界限,果真如此,所有情感包括憎恨思念忧愁自卑焦虑也可以穿越时空回到从前吧。地心引力本身是特别的,我们人类所知的物理知识里只有地心引力不受时空的操控,以超越光速的状况存在,每一个质量的密度,都有扭曲时空的能力,当物质密度庞大到一个程度,我们在三维时空内所感受到时空扭曲后的副产品就是牛顿发现的万有引力。我理性的一面让我不能相信感情能够扭曲时空,就像我不相信上帝的存在,无论我在精神层面上对艺术或宗教有着异常的领悟和认知,却不能苟同那些似是而非的科学理论。  我无法预知未来,现在用一个手掌心便可以举起的你,往后会如何看待自己的周遭?我决定不去干涉你的信仰你的性向你的自由你的未来,那些都是人生很重要很重要的决定,世界充满了太多太多悖论和偏见,当对错黑白越来越模糊,当科技越来越发达,当得到新知识的管道越来越容易,当左翼分子和右派分子的分歧越来越激烈,当感性越来越自私理性越来越自我,唯一能够让自己尽量维持清醒的方法只有独立思考的能力。我们这一代比较简单,想要在出类拔萃,就不能趋炎附势,学会自己判断真假得出结论。身为父亲的我,就是因为无法坚持岗位,只能平平庸庸的过了半辈子。无所谓好或不好,快不快乐,而是取决于自己人生的目标和定位。下一代,你们这一代,世界会怎么改变,让我用几十年的生命历练大胆揣测,大概也相差不远。你们会面对更艰巨的挑战,社会会更竞争,真要脱颖而出,就得拥有自己的特点,不是说标新立异,而是让自己更个人化,用自由的思想塑造独特的个性和品位。  为了生活,无...
