Sahitya mein Roulette

Lablée, 1801

La Roulette, ou le Jour ek novel hai jismein sanyog se game ka pehla poora varnan hai: Palais-Royal ke rooms, do zeroswheelZeroAkela green pocket jise koi even-money, dozen ya column bet cover nahi karta; house edge ka source. Doosre naam: single zero, 0.Poora padhein →, layoutsaamanLayoutTable par chhapa betting grid. Doosre naam: table, felt, cloth.Poora padhein →, croupierslogCroupierRoulette table ka dealer.Poora padhein → ki awaazein. Roulette ki shuruaat ke liye yeh primary source hai aur lagbhag kisi ne ise novel ki tarah nahi padha, jo shayad theek hi hai.

Dostoevsky, 1866

The Gambler ek contract poora karne aur Wiesbaden aur Homburg mein chadhe gambling ke karz chukane ke liye 26 din mein bolkar likhwayi gayi. Iska narrator Alexei “Roulettenburg” mein ek Russian ghar ka tutor hai jo tables par khazana jeetta hai aur kitaab ke chalte use, aur khud ko, kho deta hai. Tables, players ke systems, yeh yakeen ki streak khatam honi hi hai, aur jeet ka gehri samajh jaisa lagna, inka varnan kisi bhi bhasha mein gambler’s fallacy ka sabse achha bayaan hai, jo 26 blacksbetBlack18 black numbers par even-money bet. French mein: noir.Poora padhein → se lagbhag pachaas saal aur behavioral economics se sau saal pehle likha gaya.

Thackeray aur spas

Vanity Fair ka ant Becky Sharp ke ek German spa town ki tables par hone se hota hai, aur yeh chapter 1840s mein roulette wheel ke aas-paas baithne walon ka tez sketch hai: barbaad, umeed wale, bore aur professional. Thackeray ne yeh dekha tha; Baden-Baden har English yatri ke raaste par tha. Turgenev ki Smoke (1867) bhi unhi rooms mein set hai.

Jack London, 1912

“Shorty Dreams”, Smoke Bellew ki ek kahani, fiction ka woh akela tukda hai jo jeetne wale roulette player ko sahi dikhata hai, kyunki player koi system use nahi kar raha. Smoke Bellew, San Francisco ka aadmi jo Klondike ka prospector ban gaya, Dawson ke Elkhorn saloon mein roulette table par baithta hai aur jeetne lagta hai, raat-dar-raat, har baar 3,500 dollar. Uska partner Shorty maan leta hai ki woh sapna dekh raha hoga. Dawson ke gamblers, jo “colleges ke mathematic sharps” se jaante hain ki roulette khud hi akela system hai, uske bets decode karne ke liye notebooks bhar dete hain aur kuch nahi paate, kyunki Smoke jaan-boojhkar apna khel badalta rehta hai, ek baar tasveer dhundhli karne ke liye lagatar chaalees limit bets haar kar.

Shehar ke das game-owners ek back room mein 10,000 dollar ka bank milakar jodte hain aur use usse takrane bulaate hain. Woh dedh ghante mein use tod deta hai. Ya toh limits ek cent tak ghataani padengi ya tables band karni padengi, isliye woh poochte hain ki system kitne mein bechega. Tees hazaar dollar, woh kehta hai, teen hazaar har ek se, sone ki dhool mein, aur woh vaada karega ki Dawson mein ise phir kabhi nahi khelega. Woh paise dete hain.

London ne 1897–98 ki sardi Klondike mein bitayi thi aur saloons ko jaanta tha. Yeh kahani Thorp se lagbhag pachaas saal pehle advantage play ka poora sabak hai: dekho, likho, sectorwheelSectorWheel par pockets ka lagatar ek hissa (arc), layout ke kisi group se alag cheez.Poora padhein → par bet lagao, pattern badalte raho taaki house woh na dekh sake jo tum dekh rahe ho, aur table hatne se pehle bech do. Joseph Jagger ne lagbhag 1880 mein Monte Carlo mein asli kaam kiya tha; London ka version zyada mazedaar hai, aur gamblers ka yeh lecture ki systems kyun kaam nahi kar sakte, is site ki kisi bhi baat jitna sateek hai.

Non-fiction

Thomas Bass ki The Eudaemonic Pie (1985) shoe computers ki kahani bataati hai aur aam padhne wale ke liye roulette physics par sabse achhi kitaab hai. Richard Epstein aur Stewart Ethier ne gambhir mathematics likhi. Russell Barnhart ki Beating the Wheel (1983) bias-play ka itihaas jodti hai. Systems kyun fail hote hain, is par kisi ne padhne layak kitaab nahi likhi, kyunki woh ek page mein aa jaata hai, jo is site par hai.

The Eudaemons

Fiction kya jaanta hai

Ki system control mein hone ka ehsaas karne ka ek tareeka hai. Ki jeet gyaan jaisi lagti hai. Ki jo streak aage nahi chal sakti, woh chalti rehti hai. Ki sach mein jeetne wala akela player woh hai jisne wheel mein koi kharabi dhoondhi, aur use jaldi bech dena chahiye. Ki table woh jagah hai jahan character dikhata hai ki woh kaun hai jab nateeja uske haath mein nahi. Mathematics yahi baatein numbers mein kehti hai; novelists ne pehle kahi.
