[edit] Walkthrough
While dealing out blows to one of the fistfighters in the Hairy Bear Inn, Geralt notices a beautiful young lady sitting at one of the inn's tabels. After winning the fight, he decides to go talk to that woman and learns that her name is Milka. She challenges him to a game of dice and who is Geralt to refuse? But while she is a good player, she can't help but losing all her money to the witcher, yet instead of being furious, she offers to tell him a secret if he fleeces Gunn and Orel. Of course, Geralt makes short work of them and as a tribute to his strain of luck, Milka hands him the key to a gambling den in the Temple Quarter, where rich Trade Quarter citizens gather to play undisturbed for high stakes. Off the witcher goes! These players prove to be a challenge, but eventually Geralt wins all their money. He is very happy to have won so much money that will help him get Dandelion out of jail and when he tells Milka she is very delighted to hear he won.

[edit] Notes
- You have to beat every player until they refurse to play anymore! They refuse to play once they have no money left, getting close to this is indicated by increasingly smaller or uncharacteristically low bets that look like [0 1+ 2++] or the like!
[edit] Phases
[edit] Milka
I met a very likeable girl named Milka at the Hairy Bear. She offered to play dice with me. I suppose that's one way of earning more coin, though it's just as likely a way to lose some. But there's no gain without risk. I should play her, maybe I stand to gain more than just orens. I need to play Milka and win whatever I can.
[edit] Another Challenge
I completely fleeced Milka. Funnily enough, instead of being furious at her bad luck she congratulated me. She also offered to let me in on a secret if I beat Orel and Gunn, two other keen dice players. I need to beat Orel and Gunn. In exchange, Milka will let me in on a secret.
[edit] Orel Defeated or Gunn Defeated
I managed to beat Orel. I still need to beat Gunn before Milka will reveal that secret of hers. I have to beat Gunn at dice. or I managed to beat Gunn. I still need to beat Orel before Milka will reveal that secret of hers. I have to beat Orel at dice.
[edit] Milka's Secret
I managed to beat Orel and Gunn. I should get back to the Hairy Bear and talk to Milka. Now that I've proven that I'm a good player she should let me in on her secret. I need to get back to Hairy Bear and talk to Milka.
[edit] Playing for Real Money
So, Milka spit it out. A small group of wealthy townsmen meet at a secret location to play dice. She claims they play for high stakes and someone with my skills and luck could get rich quick. I should go to the gambling den where the wealthy play dice and join them.
[edit] Quest Completed
Looks like I've beaten anybody worth beating in Vizima. I'm still short on coin though and need another way of earning orens.
