More about this game

High Stakes: Pirate's Gambit is a card game where you challenge five pirate dealers in a race to four wins per battle. Your goal is to get closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. Each dealer has a unique trait, such as Brine Bess standing on 15 or Blacktooth Barn hitting on a soft 17, which changes how you must play against them. A run ends when you defeat all five dealers to claim the legendary treasure, or lose a race and have to demand a rematch.

Tips

Pay attention to the dealer's trait; Brine Bess stands on 15, while Captain Morrow follows regulation 17.
Aces count as 1 or 11, giving you flexibility when drawing.
Pushes award no points, so aim to beat the dealer outright.
