Choose one of the following.

a) Story Mode (...)
b) Shop (...)
c) Training Facility (learn moves for a cost)
d) Shooting Gallery (practice fighting)
e) Tournament (enter a practice tournament)
f) Casino (gamble)
g) Airship Pilot Academy (learn to steer an airship)
h) MPPU Operator Academy (learn to operate a Mechanized Personal Protection Unit)

MPPU's are kinda like really small, personal tanks. You're crammed into a little metal unit and have to shoot and aim manually; however, they have controls for moving, and the protection offered is great. If you want to start work on your invention, just go to Story Mode right away.

You can go to the casino now, or buy something first then go.

Charge A, then Casino.

Bobbo purchased the skill, left the shop, and headed for the casino.

The small casino consisted of many things for an affluent 'Sieth to put his money on: mechanical slot machines, dice, cards, chariot racing, even marksmanship contests.

Any of those look interesting?

Cards. And Poker had better be one of the options. Then again, they probably don't have Poker in... errr... wherever the hell planet this is. Oh well. Cards anyway. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Bobbo went to the area with card tables.

There were a few options available. Three kinds of poker, blackjack, and a simple game called Duo. (I'll explain the rules of that if you want to play it, I just made it up.)

Poker. Texas hold 'em if you got it. Seven card stud if you don't. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah, but they call it Triad instead of Texas Hold 'em (for obvious reasons). Other two pokers are seven card stud and five card draw. (I could put in others, but that's enough, heh.)

Five people are playing, including the dealer. The ante is two gold. Pay up or leave.

okay i'll pay the ante

Pot is ten gold.

Dealer gives out two cards face-down to everyone. Bobbo receives seven of spades and two of spades. Bobbo's turn to bet.

Check.

Bobbo checks. Check. Check. Check. Check.

Flop is 9C, 5D, AS. Bobbo's turn.

2 GP. Or whatevah.

Bet 2 gold. Bet 2 gold. Bet 7 gold (raised 5). Folded. Folded.

Go. Pot is 21.

Hm. Fold. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Folds. Folds. P3 takes the pot.

Play again?

Nah, not now. Story Mode now. Just because I hate you. XD
