FIL: Sa isang laro o sugal, ito ang taong namamahala sa pusta o salapi ng lahat ng manlalaro; ang bangka.
EN: banker (in a game)
In the context of Filipino games, the **banker** isn't the guy in a suit at BDO. He's the one holding all the cash in a game of "tong-its" or "pusoy dos." The **banker** is the house, the dealer, the one you need to beat to take home the pot. Losing to the banker feels like getting a low credit score.
From English 'banker'.
Primarily used in the context of gambling and card games, not professional banking. The term 'bangka' is a more common local equivalent.
