Cell Gambling
Welcome to Piston's Pleasure Palace where you'll probably bust.
Main Game
The main game is the spread. Drax Piston has gone through and established spreads based on our participant's average scores (thanks to Zook for compiling those numbers), and your job is to bet where the player will score over, under, or within the spread. Payout on this is a bold 2x. Here are those spreads:
Name (Spread)
Reine (65-71)
Tourneymant (39-42)
Breaker (63-65)
Roht Mirage (55-60)
blackshadow (40-42)
Warpath (67-68)
hoytti (39-42)
Dead & Walking (39-42)
Mage Hunter (60-62)
Amber Eyes (50-52)
Gold (39-42)
Resolve (75-80)
Herald of the Tempest (60-65)
Aurelianus Drak'shal (69-72)
Cicilix (50)
Hysteria (55-60)
Homunculus (55-59)
Enigmatic Immortal (60-63)
Solar Haven (50)
grim137 (50-54)
BlueGhostOfTheSeaside (35-40)
Prophet (39-42)
The Hound (65-67)
Other Games
Specific Score
Pay 25 GP, guess a player's score. If you're on the money you receive 200 GP. That's an 8x payout!
First DQ
Place a bet and guess the first player to be DQed. If you're correct, you earn a solid 2x payout.
First Death
Place a bet and guess the first character to die (non-DQ). If you're correct, you earn a magnificient 2x payout.
Highest Score of the Round
Place a bet and guess the player you think will have the highest score of the round. If you're right, you earn a whopping 3x payout.
Tournament Winner
Prior to the start of the tournament (that's in 3 days folks), place a bet on who you think will win the tournament and receive a massive 5x payout.
How to play
To place a bet, reply to this thread with the type of bet and the amount. GP will be removed between rounds. Those with insufficient funds will be DQed from gambling, so make sure you only bet what you have. Since GP is calculated after each round, be sure you don't drop below sufficient funds during the round (in a bazaar transaction, for example).
If you have any questions, please ask. Otherwise, gamble away my friends.

*shrugs* I don't really care one way or the other; just making some bets to join in the fun.
But I like that you don't mention Babe placed a higher bet than me, before I did. Or Breaker too, for that matter.
Don't let it get you down - just use it as a motivator to do them out of their hard-earned cash. :P

I can't gamble, but if I could, my bet for first DQ would be on Mage Hunter, grim137 or one of hoytti's alts. Hoytti got boned by the random placements, so I wouldn't be surprised if we see him focus on one character over the other.
