Ante Up Location Safe House Start Time 9 a.m., September 27 End Time 9 a.m., September 28 Survivor(s) Various Psychopath(s) None Dead Rising 2 Missions

Ante Up is a mission in Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record. Chuck Greene is challenged to a Strip Poker game in the Safe House by three survivors that he has rescued.

PlayersEdit

The survivors involved in the mission are different in each playthrough. They are randomly chosen out of any of the survivors, including:

• Woodrow Rutherford
• Jack Ellis
• Kristin Harris
• Trixie-Lynn Horton
• Cora Russel

RewardsEdit

Prestige PointsEdit

• 5,000 PP Points for strip eliminating a player from the game.
• 10,000 PP Points for strip eliminating all 5 possible players.

ClothingEdit

• If Chuck eliminates Jack, he will unlock the item "Arthur's Helmet", which is a part of the Knight Armor.
• If Frank eliminates Jack, he will unlock the item "Protoman's Helmet", which is part of the Protoman Costume.

NotesEdit

Chuck can play with a friend during co-op mode. Use the magazines that give gambling bonuses to get more advantageous hands. This allows you to complete the mission in a shorter period of time, before the military arrives or other missions expire.

It is inadvisable to play this mission on co-op however, as it will cause glitches. First off, the character models will become invisible for a second when a survivor loses a bit of clothing, then, the character models in cutscenes are completely invisible.

It is not required for Chuck to knock Jack out of the game in order to win the Knight Helmet. Any of the other players can knock him out of the game and the player will still receive the helmet, but it's advisable to at least try to beat him a few times before then.

Having all three Gambling magazines (Gambling 1, Gambling 2 and Gambling 3) makes this much easier.

Neglecting to rescue the other survivors tied to this mission (Kristin, Woodrow, Cora, Trixie-Lynn) will result in a one-on-one match against Jack. This method (along with playing on co-op if a good poker player is readily available and voice communication to share eachothers' hands) may be the simplest way to defeat Jack and obtain the Knight's Helmet, considering that when you have other survivors in the game, and thus more money on the table, Jack's skills usually cause his winnings to sky-rocket, making him increasingly difficult to knock out of the game.
