Capítulo 46: Complete Review
Ladbrokes.
"Superintendent, we just received a bet that needs to be reviewed and approved, it is a bet placed at the OPAP agency in Greece."
The director nodded and opened the bet. At the same time, all the people in the office looked at the TV hanging on the wall. The betting information that needs to be verified has appeared on the TV screen.
The technical staff in the office are responsible for the calculation of odds. When they encounter bets that need to be reviewed and approved, these technical staff will discuss whether to give consent.
"3000 euros bet Iraq 4: 2 victory over Portugal. This is close to the limit of our company's single bet, the odds are 1 to 100, then that means if the customer wins, our company will pay the customer 300,000 euros." The director's voice paused, and then he said, " Go and check how much betting money was earned in this game. "
"Currently the total amount of score bets received in this game is 830,000," someone answered immediately.
The director nodded and said, "That means the bonus of this 3000 Euro bet has exceeded the limit."
Formal gambling companies have a limit ratio, limiting the return of single-bet bets not to exceed the ratio of the total bet amount, some are one-tenth, some are one-twentieth, and the maximum can be one percent. For example, if a ball game receives a total of 1 million bets, the limit ratio is one-tenth, that is 100,000, then the single-bet cannot be refunded when it more than 100,000. Once there is a refund of more than 100,00 the gambling company has the right not to take orders.
Ladbrokes has implemented a limit ratio of one-twentieth in the match between Iraq and Portugal, and the total amount of score bets is currently 830,000 euros, which means that according to the limit ratio, the return amount of a single bet cannot exceed 4.15 Ten thousand euros. The return of Zhang Guan's bet is 300,000 euros, far exceeding the figure of 41,500.
"Tell me your opinion!" The director asked.
Someone immediately replied: "Although this bet exceeds the quota ratio, the probability of Iraq defeating Portugal 4: 2 is zero, so we can take this bet without considering the quota ratio."
"I agree with this view." Another said: "Iraq is a country that has just experienced war, and they can't even guarantee their daily training; the Portuguese team has many young European players, both of their strength is not at the same level. Although it is still possible for Iraq to defeat Portugal 4: 2, from a probabilistic point of view, it can be regarded as zero. "
The third person went on to say: "We can make an analogy, even if Iraq beat Portugal 4: 2, we need to pay this customer 300,000 euros, but the current bet amount has reached 830,000 euros, which means we still It can make a profit of 500,000 euros, and the stakes will continue to grow, so we don't have to worry about losing money. "
"Did you say that somebody got the inside story?" The director asked.
"It should not be. This bet was placed at the Greek OPAP agency. I guess it is likely to be a bet by tourists. For many rich tourists, 3000 euros is not a big deal. This should be purely a tourist who wants to make a fortune. We can also adjust the odds immediately after receiving this bet."
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
"It seems that everyone agrees to accept this bet, is there any disagreement?" After the supervisor asked, he found that no one put forward a different opinion, so he confirmed the bet. Then he said: "Reduce the odds of this later by 50% and give me a close look. If this is an opponent who is trouble, tell me immediately."
"Director! The data monitoring department has discovered a strange phenomenon. Someone has been betting on a super unpopular, each bet is 500 euros, and the current bet limit is already 3000 euros."
"Transfer the data immediately." The director looked up at the big TV on the wall and then said: "Why is it again at the agency of Greek OPAP, it seems to be a tourist bet, the 3000 euro should be the same person or the same group. The betting goal is the men's 100-meter sprint champion, Chinese player Guan-Zhang, whose odds are 1: 80. How can Asians get the 100-meter sprint Olympic championship! Why are there so many strange things today! "
The director frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Let's watch again to see if he will continue to bet. If the amount exceeds 5,000 euros, we will first suspend the reception and verify it."
...
OPAP Corporation.
"This account has been wagered six times in a row, each time betting 500 euros, the amount of the bet is also on the Chinese 100-meter men's sprinter Zhang." An information analyst said.
"I don't know why this customer thought it was a good idea to invest all their money in a Chinese player. The men's 100m event in this Olympic Games is as strong as the cloud. How can the Chinese win the championship! This customer must be a madman." he said.
"The Chinese player he bet on is named Guan-Zhang. He is 18 years old and is an Asian record holder. His current best 100-meter result is 9.98 seconds. This result was created 10 days ago."
"Shall we take a break, he has already bet 5,000 euros, according to the ratio of 1 to 180 paid by our company, if he wins, we will pay him 900,000 euros.
"I don't think there is any need to worry. Although the 9.98 seconds per 100 meters is very fast, at the Olympic level, it is at least within 9.90 seconds to win a medal, and the gold medal must be within 9.85 seconds. Players can break the world record and win the championship. If you say that a ten-day time increase of 0.1 seconds or more is impossible for athletes of this level. "
Analysts expressed their opinions one after another.
The head of the department lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "Help me check for the customer's information."
"Okay, but it will take a little time. We have to apply for permission with the customer service department. It may take a little time." The information analyst said.
Europe's protection of a customer's private information is extremely strict. Whether it is at the EU level, national level or company level, there are clear rules for protecting personal privacy. At OPAP, even the company's department head level personnel who want to know a piece of customer information also requires a process, which can only be checked after applying for relevant permissions.
"The people in the customer department are too slow. When they permit me, this customer may have voted tens of thousands of euros. We can't wait like this." The department head said anxiously.
"It's better if we pause first and enter the review confirmation process." Someone immediately came up with an idea.
The supervisor shook his head and rejected the proposal, then he said: "Check the betting location of this account."
"It is the betting center of the commercial street of the integrated stadium. The number 7 betting machine." The analyst immediately found the address, and then said: "This location, I guess this customer is a tourist in nine out of ten."
"Notify the security department that I need to monitor the integrated stadium betting center." The supervisor said. Watching the video surveillance of your company's betting station is part of the company's internal management and does not violate relevant customer privacy protection regulations.
The staff immediately contacted the security department, and the security department immediately responded, allowing access to the monitoring screen.
"Supervisor, I have obtained the monitoring screen provided by the security department. You see, this is the No. 7 betting machine. This man should be the customer who made the bet."
The supervisor immediately leaned over to the computer. What the video surveillance showed is not very clear, but it was still clear to tell that the client was an oriental man with black hair and yellow skin.
"He is an Asian from East Asia. He is betting on the Chinese player to win the championship. So the client must also be Chinese, so he can be understood as supporting his fellow countrymen, although this behavior is a bit idiotic." The supervisor opened the analysis.
Afterward, he took a breath. His biggest concern was malicious betting by competitors or other companies, which is not currently the case.
"Continue to take orders! Anyway, the Chinese can't get the Olympic gold medal in the 100-meter sprint. He continued to bet to send money to the company." The supervisor smiled slightly and then said: "I want to remind this customer, competitive sports look at the strength of athletes, not nationality. Perhaps this client wants to use this method to express support for his countrymen, but this is irrational behavior. "
Zhang Guan has been betting, and there is no restriction for the gambling companies, so they can review and confirm.
If someone says that the Chinese can win the Athens Olympic 100-meter sprint, then this person is either a lunatic or a fool. Analysts of the gambling company are not lunatics or fools. In their view, the probability of Asians winning the Olympic 100m championship is zero. Even if the odds are surprisingly high, the gambling company does not restrict Zhang Guan's betting.
During the Olympics, there are always some strange people doing some strange things.
Zhang Guan invested nearly the remaining 100,000 Euros on himself. The method of decentralized betting he used was to avoid the audit of the gambling company and to get the bonus smoothly. If all these 100,000 euros are invested in a company, and the bonus of nearly 10 million will be reached by then, the gambling company may have some means to not pay the bonus, but now many gambling companies share it, each of which is divided into hundreds of thousands to more than one million, the gambling company will not use some shameful means to not pay the bonus, as it is not worth it.
...
In front of the betting station, a reporter is holding the microphone, and the three English letters "BBC" on the microphone are unusually conspicuous. Opposite the reporter, a cameraman was dragging the camera, and the lens was aimed at the reporter.
"The Athens Olympics is about to open, and now a large number of tourists are pouring into Athens, which has greatly contributed to the local economy. While watching the intense and exciting games, many tourists do not mind playing by the way. This is a harvest season for the gambling industry in Athens."
The reporter pointed to the betting station behind him and then said: "I am now standing in front of a betting center near the Athens Olympic Stadium. A large part of the tourists betting takes place here is. What events and athletes are they optimistic about. "
Reporter Tuimenzoujin, eyes scanned the people, looking for their interview goal.
In the eyes of the Orientals, the Westerners are all the same. A white man stands in front of you. The Oriental certainly does not know which country he is from. In the eyes of Europeans, white people can be distinguished by appearance, dress, accent, etc.
However, the reporter hopes to find a person who is a tourist, to show that this interview is more authentic, and this person should have already bet.
At this moment, a tall figure appeared in his sight, this man just got up from the completion of betting, holding a thick pile of lottery tickets in his hand.
"Black hair, yellow skin, is an Oriental, this person must be a tourist! We must interview him!"
