  THE GAMES

  Bandit -
    Bandit is probably where "slot machines" came from. In
    bandit, you roll three die. The object is to get all three
    dice the same.

    You can bet anywhere from $100 to $1000. The payoffs are as
    follows:

    If the last die is a one, you gain your bet.
    If the last two are ones, you gain 3 times your bet.
    If you roll all ones, you gain 5 times your bet.
    If you roll all twos, you gain 8 times your bet.
    If you roll all threes, you gain 10 times your bet.
    If you roll all fours, you gain 15 times your bet.
    If you roll all fives, you gain 20 times your bet.
    If you roll all sixes, you lose 2 times your bet.
    All other rolls lose your bet.

  Craps -
    Craps is perhaps the most common dice game in existance,
    craps has hundreds of rules varients and many incarnations.
    In Foyle, the game is played as follows:

    The player rolls two die. If you roll a seven or eleven here,
    you have already won. If you roll a two, you've already lost.

    If you roll any other number, you keep rolling the pair of
    dice again until you roll your needed number, or a seven or
    eleven. If you roll a seven or eleven here, you lose. If you
    roll your needed number again, you win.

    If you win, you'll get $100. If you lose, you lose $100.

  High Roll -
    High Roll is a simple game of quick cash. The player bets $100 for
    each die he and the dealer are to roll. The winner claims the bet.

  Roulette -
    The object of this game is fairly simple. Guess the next number the
    dealer will roll. Guess right, you win $500. Guess wrong, you lose
    $100.

  Stud Poker -
    The Dice version of stud poker is similar to the card game. In Foyle,
    two die are prerolled. You can then Bet (upping the pot by $100), or
    Call. Betting will bring out the next die, again offering you the
    chance to bet or call. When the fifth die is rolled, you are no longer
    offered the chance to bet or call.

    Calling terminates betting with the current pot value, and displays
    the rest of the rolls for both players.

    The winner is the player with the highest valued hand. The table below
    lists the hands in increasing value. The higher the number on the die,
    the higher the value of hand. A pair of sixes is higher than any other
    pair, or hands with only highest dice.

    Highest Dice    - Highest Value Dice in hand
    Pair            - Two Dice are the same
    Three of a Kind - Three dice are the same
    Two Pair        - Two pairs of differing amount
    Four of a Kind  - Four dice are the same
    Full House      - A pair and a three of a kind
    Straight        - Hand contains either 1,2,3,4,5 or 2,3,4,5,6
    Five of a Kind  - all five dice are the same

    The winner gains the pot. The loser loses the amount of the bet.

  Twenty-One -
    The dice version of 21 is played much like the card game. There are
    a few exceptions. The first is that you begin with three dice, instead
    of two cards. The second is that you cannot double down. The winner
    of the game is the person who comes closest to twenty-one without
    going over.

    After the first three die are rolled, you may opt to "Hit", adding
    another die to your total. You may also wish to "Stay". Staying means
    that you are happy with your hand and don't wish to add any more
    dice.

    If you win, you gain $100. If you lose, you lose $100. If the event
    of the tie, the game is declared a "Push" and no-one wins.
