Bar games

Triple Triad

Bet limits: Minimum 100,000, maximum 500,000Plus and same are the defualt rules for the bar, though feel free to negotiate any specific ruleset that may be accepted or turned down at Marigold's discretion.The games will be played in a best of 3 set format, with the first player to reach 2 wins taking the match. Sets will be played for gil stakes.If you feel your deck unready for play, feel free to ask for a sudden death draft game!

Blackjack

Bet limits: Minimum 10,000, maximum 500,000.Get as close to 21 as you can without going over! Cards 2-9 are their normal values, 10-13 are all counted as 10, due to 11-13 being face cards, and 1 is the ace, which is counted as either 1 or 11.Trade your bet to the dealer, who will then draw a card once all bets are recieved, followed by handing a player two cards. Said player can 'hit' to draw another card, or 'stand' to stay with their current total.Player can 'double down', trading the dealer their bet again to double their total, at the cost of being forced to draw one final card and no more after.If the cards you are given are a pair (10-13 all count as one) you may 'split' your hand into two hands, trading the dealer your bet again giving you two hands to play with. This rule may only be used once per player per round.Once all players have stood their hands or 'busted' by going over 21, the dealer will draw their second card. The dealer will continue drawing until their total equals at least 17, at which point they will forcibly stand.If you draw an ace (1) and a jack (11) as your first two cards, you have a blackjack and will recieve 3x your bet. If the dealer draws a blackjack, all players will lose 2x their bet. To alleviate this, if the dealers first card is an ace or a jack, any player may call 'insurance', trading the dealer half their bet and avoiding losing the other half if a blackjack occurs.If the rules of 'split', 'double down', or 'insurance' create unease or discomfort in any of the players, they may choose to exempt them from the game, but this writing as is will be regarded as the default ruleset within The Crimson Lotus.

Garlean roulette

Bet limits: minimum 100,000, maximum 1,000,000.The dealer will participate in, and add their own bet to the pot in this game.Every player will trade their bet to the dealer, who will then roll a number from 1-6. They will then roll the same number again, and if the results are different numbers, the dealer will then roll a number from 1-5 for the next player in line, followed by rolling the same again.The previous sequence repeats, every differing result lowering the roll range by 1 until the roll range is 1, or any player recieves the same number twice.In either of the afforementioned cases, the player that roll is assigned to will be removed from the round, and the game will restart at a roll of 1-6 from the dealer, repeating the process until one player remains, who will then win the total of all bets placed in the round.
