Dnd Casino Games 5e
Here were a few ideas I had off the top of my head:
- Shop our extensive selection of DnD dice sets, 6-sided game dice, and polyhedral dice (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20), dice in bulk, and a variety of tabletop gaming products!
- Bards in the College of Fortune know that if you trust Lady Luck she never lets you down. These performers travel from town to town, typically fleecing the locals in whatever casino or gambling institute the local laws allow. Amongst their companions, Bards of the college of fortune are known to walk in an almost palpable halo of good fortune.
- If your players want their characters to gamble in casino-style games I encourage DMs to steer them towards games that involved rolling dice, like craps or sic bo. Even roulette can be recreated using a die roll to represent the ball spinning around the wheel.
- The main room of the casino would have guards where players with decent stealth checks (or lucky rolls) could just sneak past, but players generally explore a little more. They could play 'mini-games' you have in the main room, that are just basically simple games of change with dice rolls.

List Of Casino Games
- straight forward casino games with in game stakes
- A racing game with multiple skill checks / rolls along the way, maybe with the opportunity to buy or earn advantages as part of the race mechanic.
- Make the game fantasy scale, (example: Use the whole of the ring city of Sigil for a giant Roulette game)
How have you used gambling in your games? I'd love to hear what you've done, or any ideas or recommendation you might have. I'm DMing D&D 5E, but I think the question is easily system agnostic.

Starting at 3rd level, you instill a bit of your gambling confidence in your compatriots when you inspire them.

You keep each card until you play it or your next long rest. When a creature you can see makes a saving throw, ability check, or attack roll and applies the ability score of a card you drew, you can expend your reaction and play a card that matches the applied ability score. If you play a weal, the creature gains advantage on the roll. If you play a woe, the creature gains disadvantage on the roll.
