OPTIONAL PLAYER MATCH FEATURES

Wagers and RPS Chips

In eligible player-versus-player games, each player can choose an optional wager from 200 to 1,000 RPS Chips, in 100-Chip increments. The winner takes the pot. A draw or tied top score returns the stakes, and cancelling before the first move charges no stake.

RPS Chips are virtual in-game currency and have no cash value. Bot practice does not use wagers.
