Once [[Luxord]] invokes "parley" from the pirates' code, he summons four Gamblers to keep a cursed [[medallion]] each. [[Sora]], [[Donald]], [[Goofy]], and [[Jack Sparrow]] later find one at the [[Ship Graveyard]], promptly defeating it and gaining the medallion back. They then set out to find the other three to return them to the chest and free Jack from the [[Grim Reaper]]'s curse.

===Reaction Commands===
*Stop Dice: When the Gambler begins to throw a die at Sora, he can use the Stop Dice reaction command to begin a game of chance. If the O is pressed, Sora receives valuable items. However, if an X is hit Sora transforms into a [[Die Form|die]].
*Begin Game: Another game of chance that involves hitting O. This time however, the command menu turns into the X's and O's menu and Sora will have to hit O on each bar. The outcome is similar to Stop Dice, except instead of becoming a die Sora transforms into a [[Card Form|card]].
Have everyone equipped with the Jackpot ability. Sora should also have [[Wishing Lamp]]. Lots of Gamblers appear in [[Port Royal]], especially where [[Captain Barbossa|Barbossa]] is fought The same basic principle (Wishing Lamp does not have to be equipped), can be used in the Underworld Cups, to get a lot of points. This is also a good opportunity to level up summons. Before going into a room with Gamblers, summon Genie. The main reason to summon is if Sora loses a game with a Gambler and he has a summon active, he will never turn into a card or a die.

Gamblers drop the most amount of [[munny]] of any enemy, but not by defeating one. Instead, munny is rewarded by winning one of its games. Winning a game, be it a Stop Dice or Card game, forces the Nobody to drop 100 munny and stuns it. If there are multiple Gamblers present, one game will force ''all'' Gamblers on the ground to drop 100 munny. For example: Sora engages four Gamblers in a battle and one challenges him to a dice or card game. If he wins and all four Gamblers happen to be on the ground, they will collectively drop 400 munny. Sora can also get a [[Nobody Guard]] shield or [[Twilight Shard]] by winning. The Jackpot Ability makes them drop 50 additional munny for every Jackpot ability equipped.

[[Thunder]] magic excels at destroying groups of Gamblers due to their weakness to it. While they can't be easily farmed for [[munny]] using their Reaction Command like in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', they still drop 40 munny upon being defeated. Their Card Shuffle attack can be blocked from behind, so using a [[Dodge Roll]] isn't necessary.

[[Thunder]] magic excels at destroying groups of Gamblers due to their weakness to it. While they can't be easily farmed for [[munny]] using their Reaction Command like in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', they still drop a sizable amount of munny upon being defeated. Their Card Shuffle attack can be blocked from behind, so using a [[Dodge Roll]] isn't necessary.
