I declare myself Bookmaker.

I play the 9 of Batons.

I play the Knight of Batons

I play the 10 of Coins

I play the Knave of Cups

I play the Knight of Coins

I play the Ten of Batons. My pocket totals 33, your pocket totals 31, so I score both L’Aria and Il Toro for a total of 5 points.

I’m betting on Clucky. The Juice is 3.

I play the Knave of Batons and score 4 for il Toro.

I use my Arlecchino mask to replay the Knight of Batons, scoring another Il Toro for 4 points, putting my total points to 9.

I play the 10 of Cups, claim il Toro for 4, putting me at 8.

I play the King of Batons, giving me Il Propore and L’Aria for 3 more points, putting me at 12.

I arlecchino-play the Knight of Coins again, claim 4 points for il Toro again, putting me also at 12.

I play Lightning, treating it as another Baton, allowing me to score Il Propore for 2 more points, putting me at 14.

Sfida?

Wait, fff

*crosses fingers*

Accepted

Not gonna bluff your way out of this one XD

I play the Knave of Swords, scoring 4 for another il Toro. I’m at 16.

jesus

okay who wants to drop some bets on Pokes and then pay me stuff to not make my final play until after Brendan’s proposal passes

Clucky you had one job

I bet on Pokes.  Juice is now 1.

I play a Devil

Game ends with a Fine: Pokes did not have the Knave of Swords in their hand. Clucky wins 1 Peg and 1 Magistrelli, Pokes loses 1 Peg.

Correction: 2 Pegs/Magistrelli rather than 1, with the Sfida.
