A guide to "The Gambler"

Well, a few people I know had trouble with this, and now I have devised a plan of sorts to help anybody in need.

First off, you need to have tried all 3 types of game. If you haven't done this already, and you should check anyway, there is a Game Master in these places:
Bowerstone Market Tavern - Keystone
Westcliff Tavern - Fortune's Tower ( Need to check the exact name )
Oakfield Tavern - Spinnerbox

Okay, so you've made sure that you've played them all. Next, you need 500 gold from one sitting of a Gambling game.

While this may not be hard, it can be tedious. An incredibly easy way to do this is to go to Bloodstone Waterfront. Find the Game Master there, and borrow some chips. Next, you can bet on any number you want on the outside. Bet on 3, all of the 'trips' and 18. Basically, all along the bottom row. The chances of it landing on these are very slim, but if it does, you'll lose something around 2000 Gold. Just cash out, and enter another game of Bloodstone. All the turns that it does not, it will give you 70 per Gold. This means that it will take you 8 rounds to get this achievement. Once you've got 8 rounds without losing, and you've got the achievement. PAY THE DEBT, and leave the game. If you did this right, you should gain 500 Gold and get the achievement.




Sorry if the guide seems a bit jumbled and long, but It's late. I'll read it again when I wake up and make some changes, but I hope it still helps somebody.

I found it much easier to just play Spinnerbox, to be honest. Bet the highest amount possible, and you will eventually get it. You don't lose any more than you bet, and the law of averages dictates that the necessary combination WILL arise for you to win 500.

Remember to ALWAYS PAY YOUR DEBT BEFORE CASHING OUT.

Actually Bloodstone takes the shortest time possible, thus making it the easiest.

A game of Bloodstone takes longer than the 2 seconds it takes the spinnerbox to spin.
 
Re: A guide to "The Gambler"

Well, Spinnerbox may be quicker if you get lucky, but if not, it takes maybe 2 minutes to get it my way. I think that the Bloodstone method is a much more stable method than Spinnerbox.

BTW, can everybody understand it alright?
 
Re: A guide to "The Gambler"

Sokrias, thank you for the Gambler information. It was precisely correct. Both my stepson and myself got the achievement in just a few minutes using your method.
