Dice Poker

Learn how to play Dice Poker in The Witcher, defeat ranked opponents like Haren Brogg (Novice, 20 bet), and earn money and experience.

Dice Poker is a mini-game in The Witcher that can be aggravating but offers good money and experience, especially in later chapters. The objective is to win two out of three rounds against an opponent. If you start with a good hand, bet aggressively; otherwise, play the odds. Saving and reloading can help secure wins.

Defeating ranked opponents is key to completing the “Dice Poker” quests. Opponent ranks include None, Novice, Professional, and Sharper. You must defeat three Novice players to become a Professional, four Professionals to become a Sharper, and three Sharpers to challenge the Legendary player. The quest “Dice Poker: The Novice” must be completed by the end of Chapter 3; since it can be accomplished in Chapter 1, there is no reason to delay.
