195.1   Yudishtra loses rest of his wealth

Sakuni said " O Yudhishthira, you have lost much wealth of the Pandavas. If you have still anything that you have not yet lost to us, tell us what it is!" Yudhishthira said "O son of Suvala, I know that I have untold wealth. But why is it, O Sakuni, that you ask me of my wealth? Let tens of thousands and millions and millions and tens of millions and hundreds of millions and tens of billions and hundreds of billions and trillions and tens of trillions and hundreds of trillions and tens of quadrillions and hundreds of quadrillions and even more wealth be staked by thee. I have as much. With that wealth, O king, I will play with thee." Hearing this, Sakuni, ready with the dice, adopting unfair means, said unto Yudhishthira, 'Lo, I have won!'
Yudhishthira said "I have immeasurable cattle and horses and milch cows with calves and goats and sheep in the country extending from the Parnasa to the eastern bank of the Sindu. With this wealth, O king, I will play with thee. Hearing this Sakuni, ready with the dice, adopting unfair means, said unto Yudhishthira, 'Lo, I have won!'
Yudhishthira said "I have my city, the country, land, the wealth of all dwelling therein except of the Brahmanas, and all those persons themselves except Brahmanas still remaining to me. With this wealth, O king, I will play with thee." Hearing this, Sakuni, ready with the dice, adopting foul means, said unto Yudhishthira, 'Lo! I have won.'
Yudhishthira said "These princes here, O king, who look resplendent in their ornaments and their earrings and Nishkas and all the royal ornaments on their persons are now my wealth. With this wealth, O king, I play with thee." Hearing this, Sakuni, ready with his dice, adopting foul means, said unto Yudhishthira, 'Lo! I have won them.'
