High Roller

The pitter patter of dice rolling across a table, the sound of shuffling playing cards, the pings and clinks of coins hitting the table: these sounds are like an angelic symphony to you. Win or lose, you are drawn to gambling like a bee to flowers. Are you the type that constantly bluffs, or the kind that doesn't know what a poker face is? Do you spend your nights raking in large sums of gold? Or do you barely scrape by on your winnings? And most importantly, what is your preferred game; cards, Three-Dragon Ante, horse races? Or are you the sort that tries everything to net that elusive big score? No matter your preference, the fact remains the same; you are a high roller, and you have come to play.
