3.20.3

"dyūtābhiyoge jetuḥ pūrvaḥ sāhasadaṇḍaḥ, parājitasya madhyamaḥ //

My preceptor is of opinion that in complaints regarding gambling, the winner shall be punished with the first amercement and the vanquished with the middle-most amercement; for though not skillful enough to win as ardently desired by him, the vanquished fellow does not tolerate his defeat.

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra
