All in

October 18, 2010

There are times to hedge bets, and times to retreat from a bad hand, and sometimes the bust happens on the first deal, and sometimes late in the night, which looks just the same as day on the everlit casino floor.

But the house doesn’t win every single time, and on this particular night, as she pushed in all her chips and waited for the cards to turn, she felt the world tilt just slightly. No one else seemed to notice, but she was certain it was a sign the odds had shifted, finally, in her favor.
