Master and Mash will get one couple's ticket, since they are both essential to the big picture mission, and Hokusai and I will get the other, since we're both Sabers.

Suiten Palace only has slot machines. That is, there are no games where customers play against a dealer.
[k]
＠Sophisticated Pirate
The slot machines cost one token per pull, no more and no less. There's no limit, so you can play them all you want until your tokens run out.
[k]
？1：Slot machines, huh. There's no purple-haired imp in them, is there?
？2：There's no BB mark in the slots, is there?

＠Sophisticated Pirate
Not to worry. These slot machines are completely on the up-and-up. I confirmed that for myself just yesterday.
[k]
＠Sophisticated Pirate
Most of the casinos in Dazzling Las Vegas are arranged so that the house always wins, but not this one.
[k]
＠Sophisticated Pirate
These slots are completely fair, and there are no dealers lurking to prey on amateur players.
[k]
＠Sophisticated Pirate
You won't find a more wholesome casino anywhere. See for yourself. There's not a single intimidating security guard anywhere.
[k]
＠Sophisticated Pirate
It's a veritable paradise for beginner gamblers...

＠Sophisticated Pirate
...but it's also great for more well-off guests who just want a little thrill more than they want to hit it big.

The smallest amount you can win at the slot machines is still ten tokens.

If you hit it big, you can win a thousand. Do you know what this means?
