“赌”这个字,对所有的民族来说,都不是什么陌生的词,而且大多数的人对它特别感兴趣。就我所接触的各国人民来说,我认为中国人和美国人是对赌博最有兴趣的。中国人为了满足“赌”的嗜好发明了各种赌具,美国人虽然也好赌,而且在人类“赌文化”的发展史中占有很高的地位,但赌具的种类却是非常贫乏。于是只好另辟奚径、利用他们最爱的运动竞技的胜负、或相关的某些数据差异,作为衡量胜败的工具和依据。 The word “gambling” is not a strange word for all peoples, and most people are particularly interested in it. For the peoples of the world I come across, I think Chinese and Americans are most interested in gambling. The Chinese have invented various kinds of gambling in order to satisfy the hobby of “gambling.” Although Americans also gamble and occupy a very high position in the history of the development of the “gambling culture” of mankind, the types of gambling are very different poor. So he had to find another way to use their favorite athletic competitions, or some of the data differences, as a measure of success and failure of the tools and basis.
