Description of the idea: The idea here is rather simple, as many of you know the Poker tables have been added a few years back, but have rarely seen any use. Lately, with the Continental Hotel organization taking initiative on gambling, mainly in the form of Small Stakes and High Stakes Poker, gambling in this officially implemented way has been completely revived and is seeing large popularity.

I believe that it would only be beneficial if people could craft and playPoker and other games such as the Roulette, Blackjack, and even maybe Slot Machines in their own player made establishments, casinos, and businesses, on their own crafted tables/stations. To balance this out against the large 8 man poker tables we already have in-game, these players made gambling stations would perhaps have space for only half of the players and be smaller in size, while also requiring a very high crafting skill/woodworking skill/genes, a steep price, etc.

Why should this be added? (pros):
- To give players more gambling options and add more depth to the gambling system already rampant in Paralake
- Add more opportunity for actual serious roleplay
- More variety and fun for everyone who might be interested in not only running such a business but as well as visiting and using their services
- The ability to have your own private sessions with just a few of your friends on your own private property, should you not be willing to travel such a long distance just for a game.

What negatives could this have? (cons): It could prove slightly difficult to code and script entirely new models and games, therefore it could take a while to make. It would also need to be balanced out against already existing systems in the game.

you might also have issues with players removing the props whilst they’re in use. I saw this done many times on a dark rp server that allowed you to purchase slot machines and roulette tables. The player would lose their money.

Or you could just have it so you can't remove them if someone is sitting on it?

So, without realising this post exists, I posted one. My idea was to have them sizeable, Small, medium, large. They'd require a lot of glue, wood, nails, plastic etc.

I believe the owners of the poker table etc, can set a 'rake', so they are incentivised to get more people playing at their table with more money, enhancing roleplay and making a new legal way to make cash, casinos.
