Last night I write a MiniScript implementation of a classic card-betting game. You get two cards, and then bet whether a third card will fall between the first two. Just a bit of fun!

print("On each round, you ante $2.")
print("You are then dealt two cards.")
print("Choose how much to bet, then one more card is dealt:")
print("   If the new card falls between the first two, you win 2X your bet!")
print("   If the new card falls outside the first two, you lose your bet.")
print("   If the new card matches either of the first two cards exactly, you lose 2X!")
