So Leet continues to play now at 100credits per hand. staring balance is 741.

1d20[18]+5=23 Credit balance 1,241
1d20[13]+5=18 Credit balance 1,441

1d20[13]+5=18 Credit balance 1,841

So Leet now has a balance of 2,041 credits, and the eye of the pit boss. "Sir, might you be interested in a drink, maybe a show, possibly a nice meal?"

Heads to the "facilities".

Has this statement made while walking to the bathroom, uses facilities, tips attendant at the urinal 5 credits.
Heads back to his spot at the tables.
I'd like to run 7 rolls at 250 per roll.

Dood sits on his bed, still annoyed at being awakened, contemplating the Cerean's claim.

Could be a trap.

Dood puts on his jacket, secures the money so that it is unlikely to be found, checks and reholsters his hold-out blaster, and heads to the casino.

Once there, Dood attempts to remain unnoticed as he searches for So Leet. If/when he finds him, he observes him for a few minutes to make sure things are on the up-and-up - looking for anyone that might be looking for him (Dood) or coecing So Leet in any fashion.

Understood.

I will play sabaac and "cheat". If you want we can do a back and forth or I will risk 100 credits per turn and play until I lose a total of 500 credits and pocket my winnings every turn.
I will do this after dinner. (give me 45 minutes or so)

[ooc]Assuming that I have successfully taken position to secretly watch So Leet play with himself[/ooc]

Dood moves to a dark corner and uses his CommLink to get a hold of Syric.

To Syric: "The Cerean is doing quite well for himself at the tables. Do you think that you can bring the Zabrak or Mr. Migs to the casino? I think all of us clumping together would be a mistake, but I think that when he and I exit it might not be a bad idea to have some friendly blasters nearby."

@ dood: you were not seen, or more accurately noticed. The eye in the sky sees it all, and I assume you aren't hiding in a trash can.

@ wailer I need to know your floor for loss and the max number of attempts. Default is five.

I will play 100 credits a turn until I lose 500 total. Whatever I win gets pulled off the table.

Example:
Lose -100
Lose -100
Win +100
Lose -100
Lose -100
Win +100
Lose -100
Quit
Total: Lost 500 Won 200.

Klak thanks the innkeeper for the room keys and walks to his place in the motel.

He thinks to himself as he prepares to sleep Well at least someone on this rock knows how great I am. I do wonder who though. I would owe them a great debt for the comfy bed to sleep in.

"We fight corellian bare knuckle. No quadruple purse, no waiving medical. Liability gets me out of some trouble, you die I get other new troubles. I don't want new troubles. Ring is standard 20m octagonal gladiator ring. you start in 30 minutes." Atta says taking your thumbprint for liability. He then directs you down to the locker room to get ready.

Bulwark sits around the campfire picking bits of nuna steak out from his teeth. He eventually leans over and grabs one of the nuna leg bones and begins whittling away at it.

Max take away, 20k credits (I want to have enough to either put a huge down payment on the ship, buy it outright with the rest of the bankroll, or put a modest deposit down on a much larger vehicle). I don't want to leave the table /w less than 3500 credits.
I will continue to play straight up.
And I will bet 750 per hand till I get to 5k then I will up it to 1k per hand.

Assuming you are still cheating:

Your tally is now 2785. Your pit boss is also pretty relieved. The house has been taking a beating tonight.

It is a bit higher class the drinks cost twice as much as the Bantha. The walls are covered with vid screens showing clips from famous vid-screen stories spliced with some uptempo jazz like music played by a band working a multicolored lit stage in the far corner. If the last bar was like what you see in Episode 4 where Han shot first, this is more like the beginning of Episode 2 where Obi-wan and Anakin walk into a bar looking for that assassin. Do you go in?
Syric walks into Seo thinking a change in scenery might help his thirst. He heads to the bar and orders a drink, hoping to hear anything about Sargo or Tsont'ar.

1d20[20]+5=25 bets 1000 --> Balance 27286

After that last hand a security guard stops the table and dismisses the dealer and the pit boss. "Sir, your presence is requested with the Casino Director to congratulate you on your luck and give you your money directly. Will you please follow me." The polite, yet stern man didn't say that last part as a question, or even a request. His previous military training was evident in his mannerism. "And your bothan friend too."
