They Played Dirty. I Played Deadly.

I used to be the King of Gambling. But I had already retired from the underground scene and wanted nothing more to do with the game.

But life had other plans.

My mother was dragged into a setup. My old rival took her hostage just to force me back into the game and face him one more time.

But no matter what hand I played, it was like he could read my mind.

At first, I thought it was just a fluke—one bad game. But I was wrong. I lost everything until I was completely bankrupt.

The fans who once worshiped me hurled rocks and even urine at me, screaming in my face and mocking me online.
