Roll

Every player is in the same round. Bets are open for 15 seconds, then the strip rolls and stops on one of 29 tiles: 14 cyan, 14 violet and 1 gold.

Cyan and violet pay 2×. Flank pays 7× when the strip stops on the tile on either side of gold; one of the two is cyan and the other violet, so a colour bet on it wins as well.

Gold pays 14×. But 29 times in every 100 that the strip stops on gold (1 round in 100), the tile lights as the star: a second reel of 29 stars turns, and gold bets are paid what it stops on instead, from 8× to 100×. Every star is as likely as the next, and what each pays is listed below.

Cyan, violet and gold are each priced one tile short of fair and return 96.55%: 14 of 29 at 2×, and gold, 1 of 29, at 28× on average (71 landings in 100 at 14×, 29 on the star reel, whose stars average 62.28×). The flank is priced differently: 2 of 29 tiles at 7× return 48.28%, half of what the other three bets return.

The star pays 8× less often than it pays 100×: of its 29 stars, five pay 100×, fifteen pay 50× to 95×, six pay 20× to 45×, and three pay 8×, 12× and 16×. Two of them pay less than gold does without the star.

Bet on as many choices as you like, and on the same choice as often as you like while betting is open: each bet adds to what you have on it. A bet cannot be changed or taken back once it is placed.

A round is settled by the rules it opened under. Rounds played before the star paid gold a flat 28×; for a day after it the flank was two tiles on either side of gold at 7×, and then for a day one tile on either side at 14×. The verifier checks every round by its own rules.
