'''My opponent has 14 Æmber in their pool and I have 0 in mine. At the start of my turn I select Shadows as the active house and play the card Bait and Switch (CoTA 267). How many times does Bait and Switch trigger?'''
 
In this situation, Bait and Switch’s effect will be triggered 2 times. When
the effect is triggered for the first time time it checks if your opponent
has more Æmber than you, and if they do it will repeat the first effect
again, stealing another Æmber. However, since the card says to repeat
the preceding effect and not the whole effect it can only ever trigger
twice.
