    play cards?

    In lots of mafia/gangster themed media you see the mob playing card games like poker or blackjack. I thought this would be a great minigame Era players could play with eachother.

    Basically what you do is click on who you want to play against>more options> challenge to cards>poker, war, 21, or go fish.(blackjack will come later as I don't know how to play that one).
    Wait for them to accept and a tab opens up with the game ready to start. You can also bet graalats or maybe, to avoid money trading, casino chips you can use to buy items at the casino.

    Poker: You start off with a hand of 5 cards. Simple rules of regular poker apply. You cannot see the other player's hand and you can either raise, call bluff, go all in, or fold. Folding forfeits money or chips you bet.

    War: Not everyone knows this game so I will take my time to explain it. Hand of 5 to start. Highest card wins. 2 is lowest and ace is highest! Card vs card really and when your card is higher than the other the other card goes to your graveyard
    2 gets no wins, 3 beats 2 and lower, 4 beats 3 and lower, 5 beats 4 and lower, 6 beats 5 and lower, 7 beats 6 and lower, 8 beats 7 and lower, 9 beats 8 and lower, 10 beats 9 and lower, Jack/joker beats 10 and lower, queen beats Jack/joker and lower, king beats queen and lower, ace beats all! If you both place down the same card War is declared. I DE-CLARE WAR places down the next 4 cards you guys pull and those 4 fight off the other 4. Whoever has the most cards in their graveyard by the end wins.

    Go fish: We all know what this is but... basically you start with a hand of five. You request a the card you think they have and if they have it the card goes to your grave. If they don't then you have to take a card from the pool(deck). Idk.

    21: start off with two cards. Then ask for a "hit" which will add another card to your hand. You keep adding until you get as closer to 21 as you feel that you can and then you "stay" which stops you and let's you wait for the draw. You can't go over or you lose. Say I have a 10 and a 2 which equals 12. I ask for a hit and get an 8 that's 20 so I decide I'm good for now. The other guy is an idiot and decides to accidentally go over 21 so I win!

    As for the casino shop you use chips to buy items much like you do in th ec shop. Except these things cost alot of chips. Like 5000 chips is used for a hat.

    These are just some simple ideas. Please tell me at you think

    yus. but we all know what happens when players get the chance to pick the amount of money for a bet in the game. unless there is a maximum cap.

    Think about how many chips people will be betting and winning.

    I was thinking a cap of 5000 but I'm still taking suggestions.
