==Information==

The object of ~~the~~ game is to correctly place which overturned cup has a coin hidden in it. The person running the game shows the player which cup they are placing over the coin before shuffling the cups on the table at great speed in order to confuse and misdirect the player.

Coming out on top required both intuition and sharp vision. Although it was called a game, it was a gambling contest and so could not be played without wagering [[potch]] on the outcome.

During the [[Gate Rune War]], [[Marco]] made a killing playing this game in both [[Rockland]] and the [[Warriors' Village]]. When he lost to the [[Hero (Suikoden)|hero]], he would join the [[Toran Liberation Army]], continuing to make easy money at [[Toran Castle]].
