Kabers is a card game on Roshar that involves wagering.[1]
Yalb played kabers with four guards outside of the Palanaeum in Kharbranth while waiting for Shallan Davar to finish her meeting with Jasnah Kholin. He won around eighty chips of various gemstones from the guards by cheating, despite the fact that they were watching him with suspicion.[1]
“[Cheating's] what they right expected from me. Watched me like handlers of poisonous skyeels, they did. The game wasn't about the cards—it was about them trying to figure how I was cheating and me trying to figure how to keep them from hauling me off. I think I might not have managed to walk away with my skin if you hadn't arrived! ”
