Need Gambling Help

Post » Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:24 pm

I thought not wanting to do hardcoe mode and definately not wanting to do the CL trophies would stop me getting the platinum. But I worked out how to do the CL trophies fast then play properly as a side I want to. And hardcoe, I'll try it. On very easy. Just slam through the minimal quests needed and get it over with.

But that is what might not stop me.

I loathe and despise gambling of all kinds. It is the stupidest and most waste of time and money ever.
I have zero interest in it.
It bores me to sleep from the moment I see it. It bores me in any setting, even Devil May Cry anime. I zoned out when I read the rules for Caravan. :snoring: :snoring: :snoring:
I have no idea how to play Caravan, Blackjack or and other card game. Roulette is just chance.
I am very loathe to waste 10 goes of money on slots and roulete but once it is done I don't have to bother any more.

Is there a way to force a win for you, with clothing, aids, anything! Enough to get the Win At Caravan 3 times trophy.
The card games are just luck of the draw and stuff as many cards in your deck as possible with caravan anyway. Gods, gambling is boring. :snoring:
So is there a way to force the right cards to appear? Any way at all. Luck clothing, lucky aid items, anything?! The quicker I get it done the better.

Can anyone help me?

No. Not to my knowledge.

All you can do if you hate gambling is pump your luck to 10 and play the slots.

Lucky Shades (Luck +1) inside Caesar's Legion Safehouse, but you need to be Liked by them to get the key, and you need to travel to the Fort and go through that BS.

Naughty Nightwear (Luck +1) from Mick and Ralph's.

Luck Implant (Luck +1) from New Vegas Medical Clinic.

I can relate , gambling doesn't interest me much either .
But the cheevos/trophies are pretty easy to get.

Start with a luck of at least 6 . Like Granite Devil says . Naughty nightwear + Lucky shades will help a lot. But if you just get the implant and begin gambling with a luck of 7 you should be fine .
Be careful with caravan because there are a couple of NPC's that cheat. ( Don't play with Keith in Aerotech ) If you're unsure bet the minimum.

I've heard stories of people hitting the slots and winning 38k in a single spin. Never happened to me though.

Blackjack is probably the easiest way to break the bank and I usually get thrown out of all three casinos within 2-3 hours with a luck of 7.
In blackjack you're competing with the dealer. Whoever gets closer to 21 without going over 21 wins. Face cards have a value of 10 aces have a value of 1 or 11 depending on your needs . So if the dealer deals you an ace and queen you're at 21 and you win . Unless the dealer also gets 21. Then no one wins. Best rule of thumb is never hit on anything over 18 . But if you're showing 17 and hit and get an ace then you're at 18 . hope that makes sense , as far as the value of aces. You wont win them all even if your luck is 10, you'll have winning and losing streaks. So be patient and pay attention to your win loss percentage.

You'll win more than just caps , most casinos will give you gifts about 2500 caps you win . In Blackjack , it goes quicker if you bet the maximum.

Good luck ,

Thank you. :)
I have a luck implant. And some sixy sleepwear in a locker. No way I am getting the lucky shades because I am vilified by CL. My luck is about 7 or 8 now, with the implant. I figured it would be good to have high luck.

I will have to wear the sixy sleepwear and face the very boring horror that is......playing gambling card games. :cryvaultboy:

I am going to masacre everything till I get banned from the three casinos for the banned from the casinos trophy, lol. Then reload. I hope killing stuff works.
Or if I have I will play roulette or slots till I break the bank. Anything but card game gambling if I can help it.

Just a note , the sixy sleepwear does NOT increase luck. You have to get the Naughty Nightwear from Nick & Ralphs.
