[quote name='jh6269']Yeah, I had about 40,000 chips. I had a red stone and a black stone, you can only bet a max of 1,000 chips all on red or black. So I did that twice. Then, I used my green "zero" stone to place 1,000 chips all on single zero. That won be like 38,000 chips. I took all the chips and traded all of them in for Platinum discs. I took the Platinum discs to the pawn shop and sold them for $150,000 a piece.
So, I had 40,000 chips, if I bought all platinum discs, I could have got 26 discs. Sold 26 discs for 150,000, I would have 3.9 million yen. I bought other stuff and kept it (demon stone and some other stuff that's worth a ton of money), so right now, I have 3.2 million.
So, since you have 51,000 chips, you can get 34 Platinum discs and sell them at the pawn shop and get 5,100,000 yen.
I do have some other stuff, like some piss mountain stone and some other stone that makes your opponent roll a certain number, like 1,2,3 and 4,5,6. Dunno how to use those quite yet b/c I don't know how to play Cee-lo. And I have a blackjack card that gives me good hands, but I'm afraid that I'll lose. Any ideas?[/QUOTE]
Cee-lo, I had to lose alot to finally understand the game. If the banker rolls a 1-2-3, they pay 4x the betted amount or something like that. But basically the game of Cee-lo, you roll the three dice and you're trying to get doubles with two of them and the unmatched die is your point. 1 is the lowest, 6 is the highest. But you can also get triples as well. I'm not sure but I think three 1's (or ace out) beats trips 6. And 4-5-6 is a winning combination, but I'm not sure if that's the lowest of the trips and ace out. And if you roll a 1-2-3 or get no point on your 3 rolls you automatically lose. If you haven't found this guide on the net, its really helpful.
ThePatrick Yakuza 3 Guide
It explains alot in full detail. Locker keys being one of them, because there's alot of things to use that you get from the lockers like the 1-1-1 slip that'll make you roll a ace out. And I would use that when I'm the banker, because they pay out 4x or use it when you're betting a 1000, because I think the banker pays out 4x, not sure.
And goto the high stakes black jack table in Purgatory right where the Coliseum is at. There you can bet a thousand. And using that lucky card will give you black jack for 5-7 turns or something. And there'll be a time where the dealer gives you a challenge and you can get 3x the betted amount and if you're still on that lucky card (when the triangle button pops back up on screen that'll tell you its worn off) take the challenge and you'll automatically win the challenge with a blackjack.
I've completed all the casino challenges with those items I found in the lockers, and Cee-Lo as well. Koi-Koi, the evens/odds dice game and a couple others I'm still working on.
Hope this helps!
[quote name='phantasyx']You too must be Republican. Of course I own it, not saying this game sucks but it hasn't caught my attention enough to play it because of Bioshock 2, GOW 3, FF13 that are currently clouding my interest to really get into it like I would. I'm not going to sit around and play a incomplete game and let Sega potentially

up Kenzan or Yakuza 4. I'm going to sit around and get other people to compain about it so more content gets put in and it catches my interest again. Nuff said.[/QUOTE]
Honestly, what does my party affiliation have to do with liking this game or not because of content being cut. I'd like to know this. GoW3 took me 10 hours to beat on normal, and I'm going through a Titan run, but getting my ass handed to me fighting Hades right now. I usually play it a couple hours a night. FFXIII I haven't touched in a week, Yakuza 3 has most of my full attention, I just got to Chapter 9 in FFXIII. Haven't played Bioshock 2, but want to badly. But having others to do the work for you while you sit and wait, that sounds like the perfect thing for you, keep at it. You're doing a great job.
