Gambling was the betting of credits or possessions in wagers,[2] which could be placed on events like droid-fighting,[3] or in games like sabacc. For example, Lando Calrissian bet the Millennium Falcon in a game of sabacc with Han Solo, which he lost.[2]
Gambling was rampant on Tatooine. The city of Canto Bight on Cantonica hosted all sorts of gambling in its many attractions.[4] Droid-fighting was gambled upon on Nal Hutta.[3] The Latero Greez Dritus had a habit to gamble, which often got himself and others in trouble with the Haxion Brood.[5] There was a form of gambling on the supertanker fuel depot Colossus known as the Platform Lottery.[6]
