Do you get anything for the gambler challenge
I'm playing the game through a second time. As I'm playing through I noticed a variety of challenges that I don't recall the first time I played. As the title says, do you get anything for completing these challenges or is it simply an achievement thing? Specifically the gambler challenge (annoying hit 3 times for blackjack 5 times).

I'm not big on achievements. I rather just play to have fun. However, if there is something to gain from it, then I usually give it a go.

The BEST you can be without Challenges and the Equipment is 80%:

Completing the Challenges and Buying the Associated Equipment (2 sets for each Tank) adds an additional 20% - filling out the Tanks:

So when you're sat there, thinking of Murdering everyone, including the Dealer during Gambler 8 - remind yourself... there is a light at the end of this tunnel and it's worth it at the end.

Late in the Game, when a Gold Medal Requirement for a Mission says something like:
Get 30 Headshots.
Maintain 80% Accuracy
Without taking ANY Health Items
You'll be glad you have full tanks and a Satch Full of Special Snake Oil... 'cause you're gonna need it.

Note:
Vanilla Arthur can't complete the Challenges or Max Out his Tanks.
I cry; "Balls To The Wind", Mod the Game and Max out Arthur.
(I'm in my 4th playthrough - I've played it Vanilla - I like this way better)

:D
