For a ten gold buy in, there is a game of dice hosted by Lysander every year. It is a winner take all contest, but there are allowed to buy in multiple times.

Louis entered the dice contest, of course fully intending the cheat.

Louis entered and he saw a bowl with thirty gold pieces in it. Next to the bowl were several stacks of clay chips. The red chips equaled 1, the yellow chips represent 5 and the blue represent ten. There is a sign instructing new players to take take 50 value in chips.
There was a hexagonal table with three large dice and a single cup. There is also a large iron plate with a crown etched on it, which is currently in front of Lysander. One of the die has 12 sides, One has 8 sides, and the last has four sides.
To first every play must pay 1 chip each round. The player with the crown is called the sovereign. The sovereign must pay a 5 buyin instead of a 1. The sovereign also gets to bet first each round.
After the buy in all players roll their 12 sided die and cover it with their bowl. Then there is a round of betting. There is no limit to the betting. The betting continues until all players have called the bet or folded.
After that round ends the remaining players all roll their 8 sided die. This die is not hidden. There is another round of betting.
After that round all the remaining players roll their 4 sided die. There is one last round of betting. Then the remaining players show their hidden die. The higher number wins. Ties are split.
Sitting at the table already are Lysander Fiske, Gustavus and Vands. They are laughing at a joke Gustavus just told. Gustavus is one of the Towns deputies.
There is a pretty bar maid who smiles at Louis. "What do wish to drink sir?"

Sabarrah enters and after rashly deciding to enter she collects her chips then she settles on a stool to join the game. She smiles at the gamblers and says 'hello all.'

The pretty bar maid looked at Sabarrah and gave her a warm smile. "What do you wish to drink hun?"
Lysander looked at her and nodded his head.
Gustavus smiled at her and bowed his head. "Greetings Sabarrah. It is a pleasure to see you."

Sabarrah smiles at the bar maid 'something mild please I don't mind what.'

The bar maid fetched Sabarrah a spiced ale, and placed it beside her.
Gustavus shrugged, "It was going well until I ended up here. I have only played three toesses and I am already done fifteen chips. I hope you are worse at this then I." He nodded and flashed her a hopeful smile.

Sabarrah says 'thank you.' To the bar maid.
She gives him a wry smile and a shrug 'i usually only play for coppers.. my luck goes either way without notice.. but.. we shall see. Hopefully luck will shine on us all eh?'

"Really I just need the luck to shine on me. No offense. You are great. Just wonderful, but I hope you are as lucky as cat in a kennel." Gustavus gave a small shrug.

Lorel, never able to resist a dice game, arrived and grabbed a seat. "Father, I trust you haven't lost too much yet" she said, putting her gold into the bowl, and grabbing her chips. "Ready to lose some gold?"

Lysander moved with a slowness indicating he was far into his cups. He looked up at his adopted daughter and raised his glass in a half salute. "The next coin I lose to you.... will be my first." His words slurred, and he forced a smile onto his plain face.

Balneiros arrives at the dice game, buying in as soon as he's able. Seeing Louis present didn't surprise him, but it would give him a chance at revenge.

If Vanda was purturbed by the person going out of turn, she didn't seem it,
"So... lowest wins?" She asks the table.. taking a look then a second look at her dice under the cup.
