I'm playing through the Witcher series for the first time, and I'm currently in Vizema during the first game. Trying to complete the quest to play all the professionals is the most frustrating experience I've had in a video game. I'd rather fight Ornstein and Smough solo and naked than watch the 'rng' pull another full house out of a single pair.

Please tell me its not just me that hates this quest. Did anyone else get continually screwed by the rng in this minigame?

Howdy guys.
you may remember that a few months ago, I made a thread saying that the witcher 2 dice poker was scripted because the tougher opponents would always get super imba hands on the second roll even if they had an extremely crappy hand in the 1st one (they could go from no pairs to full house)
ofc everyone started calling me a jacknut, that I Was wrong and blablabla.
English is my native language and I have a few degrees in it, and I still couldn't tell you the answer. The phrasing of the question and a one-word answer doesn't really help. (Strictly grammatically, the reply is saying 'No, there are not 'zero possibilities' but the question is asked in such a bizarre way that I don't think that's what the Taleworlds rep intended to convey.)Personally, I would continue assuming that Bannerlord will only have a single-player campaign until an official source says otherwise (in clear language using more than one word). Mount and blade coop campaign mod.
well recently I had started the game again (taking the other path) and a few days ago I finished the game.
well while completing the 'poker face' quests, I decided to test something.
yes, how it would go with the 'tougher opponents'
Witcher 2 Dice Rules
I found out this: if you have a certain hand, lets say, 2 pairs in the 1st roll, and you aim for a full house (ONLY if you reroll 1 dice and no more) the opponent would get a full house (and a damn good one) in every freaking try., they only failed like twice out of 20 times (yes I played A LOT of matches to prove this) however when you rolled a dice out of the board, the opponent ai gets 'confused' and it screws up badly (everytime I would lose a dice in the 2nd roll the enemy would screw up his hand completly) for example, after the 1st roll I had 2 pairs and the opponent also had 2 pairs, but when I rerolled, I would throw 1 dice away, only 1, after doing this the oponent would reroll and get an extremely crappy hand, no pairs at all, or just 1 pair. and yes I also tried that a bunch of times.
the opponent has an extremely high chance of getting an equal or larger hand than yours after the 1st roll, if you manage to 'downgrade' your roll (like for example, throwing 1 dice away) the enemy chances go haywire and he wont even manage to score a pair in most cases.
you might say 'you are wrong! I beated the toughest opponents in a single match!' well yeah duh thats why its called chance..you were lucky enough to win the 1st round because you hit the 'lowest chance' saying that im wrong because you beated them in your first try is like saying that its impossible to win 10000000 dollars in a casino.
I keep losing every single time no matter how many times I try. Even when I get a Five of a Kind V the opponent got Five of a kind VI and beat me!
It feels like the game is rigged. Is there a way to win?

Throw dices low and in the middle of the board if you go around the egdges and throw too strong it can happen that your dice gets out of the board and you will be left out with great disadvantage.
Know the winning combinations(highest to lowest):

You can also save game before playing dice poker and by loading game if you lose you can ensure that you get the lead,it will lower the chances you playing all the rounds.

And if you really lose every game like 10 in a row there could be some bug or glitch especially if you are using unofficial mods..on the other hand if you win here and there you could be plainly unlucky :(
Read this maybe you will find something you didn't know.
