“Please, if it’s money you want, I can give it all to you. Just please let me go. I can’t breathe.” Laughter erupted from what I assumed was three guys as one of them said in a taunting voice. “That sounds like a lovely plan but I don’t think you can pay us enough to let you go,” he barked and the others erupted in another round of laughter. “But I suppose I can think about it after my boys and I take what we want from you.”

My options. "I see you don´t know what to choose." My Master passes me several playing cards. Not a full pack, just the Ten, Knave, Queen, King and Ace of Hearts. I look at them blankly. "Master?" "We going to play a game Charlotte, and you are the prize. You will shuffle and deal the cards. You will give each of us a card. When it is time for a new...um... participant, you will call a card. The holder of that card takes a turn.

The commander paused to watch where his shot landed and then kept going to the command tent. Sargent at Arms Macklin stepped up first. With his arm raised and pointing to the target. “That is what you get from practice and paying attention. Listen up! I will only say this once. Look down. We have used ropes to cut the field that you are standing on in four. Each section will be learning a different move. We will simply be working on basic hand to hand combat today. You have four instructors, one in each section. You will circle around them to learn your technique and when the bugle blows you will switch clockwise to the next section. All right get started.” With that he stepped back and four

She seems oddly excited by the game. “Do you even know how to play this?” he scoffs. “No, but I’m good at math so I know how probability is being used to win!” She exclaims in a hushed tone. “It’s fun!” Nathan wasn’t planning to win this last round but Halsey’s excitement is amusing to him. “Fold,” one man says. “Fold,” another one groans. Kelso grins and shows his cards: a jack, a ten, a nine, an eight, and a seven.

"You are definitely cheating! How come you've won when you still have many cards left! It d-doesn't make any sense!" "Perhaps you still didn't get it," Xavier replied. He took his cards from the table and set them in order. There are four spades at that. King, Queen, Jack, and 10. Whilst the other cards have another 3 more cards, two 10, and heart of 2. It was such basic tongits, unlike what they've played earlier. Xavier realised how dumb this person is. "And then that left me with 2, less than yours." "IMPOSSIBLE!" Alejandro shouted, looking petrified.

The dealer began to get angry, the emotions that began to evaporate, the veins on his face stood out. "People here can use Mana however, they prefer luck." replied Altair as he spread his hands. Altair then put his 4 gold coins on the two cards. Each contains 2 gold coins. "This is the joker," then opens the card. "Then this is 3 hearts," he opened another card. "Uncle didn't mention how many cards you could bet, right?" Altair said slyly. Everyone was amazed that the card that Altair opened was a joker and 3 hearts.

I watched them closely, not risking even the slightest movement. Matteo scratched the corner of his mouth, something he always did when he had a strong hand. The one with a scar on his eyebrow tapped the table twice when he was bluffing a capture. The quiet one on the left breathed through his nose, something he also did when he was screwed. First two rounds, I lost to them. But not again, even if it meant having a tie. The table now has a seven of cups, a three of swords, a king, and the ace of coins — the most valuable card in the deck.

“I’ll shuffle them and place a card at each spot. No peeking. We all flip our cards at the same time.” “Can we trade,” Zephyra raises her hand. “Like what if I got lust? I mean, I’m not making out with her just for this stupid game.” “No trading, no takebacks,” I clarify. “You get what you get.” “And you don’t throw a fit,” Simon finishes for me in a sing-songy voice. Zephyra glares at him, her pink lips pouting as her blue eyes shoot daggers from across the table.

Ms. Justice: "So wait," SpeedBlade starts, looking at the cards in his hand. "How do I do this again?" "I'm not sure," JumpStart says looking at the cards in his own hands. "Wait. When do I pull a card from the deck?" "Draw," Ms. Justice says, "You draw a card when I say go fish." "Sssooo do I draw a card now?" "No. Not yet. First thing first, you need to ask one of us if we have a card."

“Do you want to play with us?” Hugo’s face broke into a charming smile showing dimples on both his cheeks. “Really? Can I? Please teach me. I don’t know how to play these.” “What? You suck, man.” A blush spread over Hugo’s cheeks but he endured Ponjie’s taunt. “I can learn.” “Whatever. Since you’re new to this, here. Let’s check all the cards.” The three of them got busy laying out all the cards and grouping them based on their kind. Hugo was once again amused with what he’s seeing. He clarified, “So this is what we call the standard deck of cards containing four suites: hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs?”
