Most of the game's text has commented-out descriptions.

MAX BET

This text string is commented out and therefore unused. It seems that at one point in development there were max bets.

DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 1
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 2
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 3
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 4
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 5
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 6
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 7
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 8
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 9
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 10
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 11
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 12
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 13
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 14
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 15
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 16
DO NOT LOCALIZE ME 17

There are lots of unused strings in the game's data that apparently shouldn't be localized.
