Rika shook her head, "You don't do it that way. Only a fool would go in and dump a bunch on one or two games. Second best way to get hurt is to bet on a bunch of games and win every one. Hell the Yakuza might turn you in themselves as a suspect of fixing games. What you do is bet a few small amounts, but always place a few bad bets. Let's say you bet on ten games. Bet on five winners and five losers, but bet higher amounts on two of the losers and higher amounts on three of the winners. If you do it right you could come out with a ten or twenty percent profit every time. Then once in a while dump almost every game in the losers slot and the bookies remember you tend to bet well, but are not infallible. They don't mind people like that because in the long run it's good for business. The winner tells other friends and they end up making a profit from the friends that can't pick winners. See?"
