Proposal : Gambeling Fix [Mob]

Replace the text
All losing bets are added to the Casino's Cash.


in rule 21 with the following


For the purposes of this casino odds are expressed as follows

2:1 X

This means the payment back from the casino to the punter, should result X occur will be double the amount the punter paid to the casino at the time of their bet. All payments to the casino must be made at the time of placing the bet, If the payment cannot be afforded the bet is considered invalid.

For example if the odds are 2:1 and the bet is $100, the punter pays the casino $100, and if they win, the casino then pays the punter $200

A bet can only win in a specified category once, but can win in multiple categorys should it qualify. For example in the game Slots, Bar-Bar-X pays off, as does Bar-Bar-Bar. A punter who achieved Bar-Bar-Bar receives the Bar-Bar-X pay off once, and the Bar-Bar-Bar Payoff once.

Should the casino be unable to cover a payoff, the casino is declared Bankrupt, And is closed Automatically. All the casino's cash is paid out to the punter.
The casino may re-open when it has recieved additional funds from any source.


Additionally Remove from rule 21 the phrase

One role only.


I felt that this needed clarified, and there were still a few problems with how the casino is working, so hopefully this will fix it. By my math, this leaves the odds extremely slightly (<1%) in favor of the casino making a profit. Which is how it was intended I believe, and how it should be. If anyone wants a copy of my math, email me for it.


Edit - Remove implication that B-B-X == X-B-B, Fix typo, and add removal of one role only phrase + spelling
