When you play someone for a rare card, you can just keep playing them over and over again until you get a good draw or go away for a while and collect more cards. Wouldn't it be something if Geralt could bet HIS cards as well? Yikes.
For the longest time I thought you could lose cards. So I saved the game before every match and loaded the game if I lost. Then I read on here that its impossible to lose cards. lol wtf. So yeah you can just play them over and over. But seriously it should not be hard at all.
btw Im playing witcher right now and I think Ill go and enter that high stakes tournament. My deck is fucking awesome
And high stakes opens up a new quest and thats the only way to get that quest

Nope. I played with the guy in White Orchard and never played another game after that. Felt like the only thing I missed out on was the "oh god, not you again" expression on the NPC' face...

I miss arm wrestling too. There's something more satisfying in the physical contests and it always seems Geralt enjoys proving himself.
When i played my first ever playtrough i skipped gwent because i didn't understand this xd
But after my second playthrough on DM i started to pay attention to it and finally learned it, it turned out to be easy mini game to learn and its fun, the quests are interesting too

They've made a great game with gwent, you don't have to play it to complete the game but you'll definitely miss a lot of fun 
If you're looking to find some stronger cards here's my favorite list I'm working with: http://gwent-cards.com/ , also in the NG+ now.
They also have a nice listing of the gwent quests if you're looking for them.

What I still find hilarious is the fact that in-game people are killing each other for what amounts to rare pokemon cards. I just can't wrap my head around it. Love playing Gwent though.
This is what's going on in Geralt's internal monologue before he challenges someone at Gwent

Lol me too, I had a perfected northern realms deck, but I couldn't draw any spy, while the other guy was just smashing me.... with scoia'tael no less.Had all the cards, finished the High Stakes tournament and haven't lost a single game. Then I played against a merchant in Skellige, made a bad draw and did one stupid mistake and got my ass handed to me
I obliterated him 3 times afterwards just to show him who's really the gwent god here...
yeah me too. I smashed him 3 or 4 times after and came back later and smashed him again just to make sure he doesn't get cockyI neglected gwent in my first playthrough, my second time I played it, got into it and now I can't get enough of it. Its really fun to play. Hoping CDPR can make an online gwent to play against other people.
