Can someone explain the gambling den to me?

[poem of devil]

I'm feeling kind of dumb.

So, 1000 silvers coins gets you 1 wooden token that you can use to gamble. So, I gambled and won a few games. I now have 20 wooden tokens. When I go to cash out, you'd think that 20 wooden tokens would net 20,000 silver coins, but the conversion rate in the cash out screen is 1 wooden token = 1 silver coin? Does that make sense to anyone?

Welcome to gambling, the house always wins.

You can buy better weapons for those silvers, they cost several silvers. 10-20-30 silvers is great!!

It's called a scam, it's by design.

Yea it's meant to be a different type of currency to buy custom items. It's not meant to be cashed out. Doesn't make sense given the npc leads you to it cuz he needs to make money.

People IRL spend their utility bill money on gambling because they think they will win big, even though the odds are astronomically stacked against them.

Nothing. She legit can bet $10 and make $100 in 1 turn. No loses.

Then I try $10 and lose instantly 🤣 no luck.
