Games of chance have seemed to a weakness for many pirates. In fact, some crews had rules banning them to prevent fighting and cheating aboard ships.
In Pirates of the Caribbean Online, the player can partake in two card games of chance in island taverns: Poker and Blackjack.
Finding Cards
Often when defeating an enemy, the pirate may find a playing card among the loot; most often from an EITC, Royal Navy or Skeleton. Normally, the tougher the enemy - the better the card.
Black Mack in the Rowdy Rooster tavern in Port Royal will give you quest to win 150 gold. Return to him and he'll give you another quest to kill a skeleton. Then, come back for your free card.
You can repeat the quest and keep collecting as many cards as you like! Yes, you could potentially have all 52 cards up your sleeve at once! And you may have more than one copy of the same card.
Shane McGreeny in Port Royal's Royal Anchor bar gives out three different quests, each of whose payoff is a cheat card.
Cheating with Cards
And while a good honest game may be hard to come by, nothing says a little extra something up your sleeve wouldn't hurt?
Pirates may want to Swap cards while playing Blackjack or Poker in the taverns to move the odds in their value.
During the pirate's turn, the game will prompt for them to swap cards. If the pirate chooses to swap a card - they can then choose the suit and value of card - from those in their possession. A card swap may fail. If so, the game continues anyway.But you cannot swap cards again for the rest of the round.
If the pirate swaps for a card that ends up in play by another pirate or the dealer - they are caught cheating. Any moneys won during that sitting will be lost, the player will be fined 100 gold, and the pirate is immediately sent to the nearest jail, you will not begroggy uppon waking up.
