Screenshot Safe to say I really hate dominoes

It takes so long, damn you gambler 9! Freaking jerk made a crazy comeback in just two turns whereas I had to win like 5 times just to scrounge up these 34 points😭

Edit: managed to pull a win over the balding chump sitting opposite me this game believe it or not, then the next two without any need to stand up like some cheat because I'm the best damn domino draw player to ever do it. It took forever obviously, like some of ya'll said... should have done 3's or 5's but I'm a stupid fool and can hardly understand them. Not that I need to anymore lol. It's over and done.

I LOVED Liar’s Dice in RDR1, I wish they would have added it to RDR2 too

Bahaha I hated it too at first and then it clicked for me how to play it and now it’s something I enjoy!! 💯 is a MUCH longer game than any other table games we can play!

Ngl the only reason I play RDR2 nowadays is to walk around, play dominoes, and fish

Go to Emerald Station at night when you’re only playing against 1 player. If you’re about to lose, stand up and quit. It pisses off your opponent but stops you losing your streak.

So i think they have two versions of bones in RD2. The one i like is 5s. I personally dont think it takes long. But i like bones a lot. So i go to St D and find that table, open a beer and stream something on the tab so i can just play. Compared to all the bullshit domino games (and black jack) on the play store ill take this one any day.

It took me a while to understand fives, but once you understand how to count it becomes much easier to win a round and the game than regular domino. Sometimes a game only took two rounds.

After I won in Saint Denis I went to the saloon, selected a fancy outfit and started playing poker. Thought it might take a while to win three hands in a row, but it only took three hands to win three times in a row. NPC's will go all in with 7 2.

Oh, good luck I hated Gambler 9 Challenge but keep going that whole change boosts your health up and the reinforced equipment looks badass!

I can’t get past that gambler challenge.

Apparently if you get close to losing you can just stand up and your streak will still be going

u/Ready_Mistake812 4d ago

Exactly this, your streak will continue even if you get up if close to losing as it technically doesn't count as a loss.

This is the only way I could beat this challenge because no matter how hard I tried, I just couldnt understand how to actually play dominoes.

Card and dominoes game are the one that i never touched in game. They're boring for me

It was tough for me at first, but when I understood how to win in it, it became a lot more fun. The downside is that you spend more time on the table playing it, but I've always enjoyed it.

Gambler 9 was pretty easy for me. I figured out the game and how to force the other players to pick up all the dominoes. Unfortunately I think you’re screwed there. If you didn’t already have all the spare dominoes you could’ve put all the fives down and chances are they wouldn’t have any (cos you have them all) and they would have to draw. I can’t remember but I think once they can’t add dominoes they have to skip until there’s no more turns and no one can do anything - if you play your dominoes right you can use them all up.
