-The draw-

  Your eyes widen as you calculate the result in your head, and the result is actually a draw. You look questioningly at the woman, but she shakes her head triumphantly. “Forget about it. We won't play again.” Then a grin forms on her face. “Remember how I said that if your number isn't closest to the number on the dice, you lose? That includes a draw.” She holds out her hand with a grin and claims her winnings. You reluctantly hand her the coins.

  Subtract your stake from the number of coins you have.
