Safe Bet

Giver
Agatha Baker
Location
Ms. Baker's phone call, or the Pause Menu job list; you spawn wherever you were in free roam, and the first marker is the airport where the van waits.

The casino’s chip shipment was hit last week, so Ms. Baker wants you to ride along with the security van. You meet it, follow it to the Diamond Casino and keep it alive if anyone attacks.

Before you start

Take a fast, sturdy car you can keep close to the van, and bring a rifle and armor.

With a team, put one player in the lead car and the rest on rooftops or in the back seats to cover the sides.

Objectives

  1. Go to LSIA.
  2. Escort the security van to the Casino.

Safe Bet walkthrough

Meet the van

Ms. Baker says the chip deliveries keep running into trouble and asks you to tag along in case anything happens. Drive to the marked pick-up; on this attempt it was Los Santos International Airport, and the spot can change between attempts. Pull up beside the armored van and the guards take their seats, then the van sets off for the casino.

Stay close and watch the van

A VAN HEALTH bar appears at the bottom right, and a tip from Ms. Baker warns that someone may hit the shipment. Drive just behind or beside the van so you can shoot at anything that approaches, but stay out of its path. If cars close in, take them out before they reach the van. Use the side streets and highways it follows to plan where an ambush could come from.

Into the city

The van heads through Del Perro and through the tunnel into central Los Santos. Keep your car behind it in tunnels and tight corners so nothing cuts you off, and watch the health bar for sudden drops. When the Diamond Casino lights appear, stay close until the van reaches the marker and the shipment is safely inside.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

  • the security van is destroyed
  • the team runs out of lives

After the mission

When the van is delivered, you earn cash, casino chips and RP, and Ms. Baker calls to thank you. You can request another job from her right away.
