Dabo
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Dabo was a roulette-style game of chance developed by the Ferengi. When one won, it was customary to shout "Dabo!" Given the "profit at any price" philosophy of the Ferengi, it was not uncommon to find that a Dabo table had been rigged.
Often Dabo girls were specifically instructed by their employers to distract players into losing. A common saying in Dabo was "Watch the wheel, not the girl." (DS9: "The Abandoned")
Gravimetric scanners could be used to predict the outcome of a dabo game to cheat. Two Yridians used such a device at Quark's in 2373. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
When Quark announced that Major Kira Nerys was the millionth customer of his establishment, he gave her five free spins at the Dabo wheel as one of three presents. (DS9: "Meridian")
Quark once taught the rules of Dabo to the Karemma representative Hanok who promptly busted him by betting on "Triple Over". (DS9: "Starship Down")
- The word "dabo" means "I will give" in Latin, and "Gold" in Aramaic.
