"How to not be the victim only matters if you're going to make a habit out of playing the game." Unless. Wait. Are they still talking about cards? He thought they were talking about sabacc, but now he's got this feeling like he's no longer sure.
Anyway, he's glad she's willing to take him up on the offer at least.
That overview he gave at the cheating, brief as it was, really covered most of it. Now he has to think, as he's picking at his breakfast to come up with more for her, lest he let her down. If so far the most impressive he's been is at talking cards, damn if he isn't going to try work that angle as hard as he can.
"If there's no professional dealer or droid to do the dealing, you can employ an overhand shuffle to watch the cards and float the ones you want in strategic places in the deck or reverse the order, but that only helps so much when the values of the cards change mid-game. Same goes for trying to mark the deck."

"When you can put two people at the table and they're two people who know each other well, you can signal things to each other as well as work multiple strategies at once."
