Deuces Wild
Wandering around the Bugbear Cave, you come across some bugbears playing cards. The only game they seem to know is Go Fish, although they call it Grildn Fshti. You teach them how to play Cobb's Knobb Hold 'Em, though you can't seem to get across the idea of an 'ante' with your limited knowledge of the bugbear language. You also discover that bugbears get violent when they lose, so the best strategy is to let the bugbear win.
You leave them peacefully playing poker, looking like something the Pretentious Artist would probably sneer at in disdain.

Occurs at The Bugbear Pen (post-quest).
