"Yes!" "Also, my fashion is an extension of my self confidence" "I only wear name brand clothes" "I never put on anything cheap and I wear them well, woohoo!" "Thank you everyone for supporting the Government's Charitable Foundations." "No problem." "I have some personal issues to take up with Ms. Fong" "Anything you want to say to me?" "Yes, I like your outfit today" "You wore it well" "That's true, this shirt's a see through one" "You made a lot of good points at the meeting today" "What's it with you today with all the praises?" "I'm not going to be predictable to you" "A melon for you... perhaps for wearing a black bra today" "Ms. Fong, everything alright?" "He complimented my black bra, and fed me a melon" "I prepared your Chinese medicine for today" "Gee, thanks" "No worries, it was just a push of button" "So hot" "It tastes good?" "For some reasons, it does taste better today" "Give it a try" "It still tastes really bitter" "I thought it tasted well" "This is yours" "That's a lot" "It's just an extra pair of chopsticks" "I'm embarrassed" "No need to be" "I am used to having pizza" "It's good" "Boss, I brought a good friend over" " His name is Jack" " Chinese food?"

" Okay" "Fernado, I can't exactly be a high roller with this cash and you honestly expect me to have leftover money?" "I got my salary" "You're here just for kicks," "I know you're an expert at gambling" "Why don't we leave the hobby... for a sec and go gambling" " Let's go" " Not me" "Smiley's away, just go on your own" "You just need cash to go to the Casino, why do you need Smiley?"

"I'm mortified, Jack" "So what kind of life I'm having?" "We don't want your business, please leave!" "Why not?" "It's $10,000" "I want every cake that Jack made" "I don't want cakes from anyone else the hand made ones from Jack won't be a lot" "It's alright" "I want every cake he makes from now on" "Remember, a good smile brings good business" "Smile" "Sure, I am smiling" "That's possibly the worst smile I've ever laid eyes on" "Sir, we have delivery service" "We can deliver to any place" "Home delivery or office delivery" "Thank you, as long as there's an address, we deliver" "Thanks so much" "Still fuming over Uno Cheuk?" "He had kicked me out, why humiliate me further?" "Just consider it a run of bad luck" "I had worse luck than you though" "What happened?" "Look" "That's all I left of my salary" "You lost everything else?" "Losing was ok, but being humiliated by that jerk was unbearable" "That fat jerk... was a lot worse than Uno and his gang" "Do you want to..." "Sure I do!" "I haven't said anything" "We're friends and we can communicate with our minds" "Dude, you have more money to lose?" "And this time you brought your big brother?"

"You doubled my salary and you did it without Smiley" "I got lucky even if I didn't have Smiley with me" "Exactly" "Getting off work?" "We're thrilled about the win today" "So?" "So why don't we go and eat something?" "Why don't you guys go ahead..." "I'm not hungry" "So what should I do?" "Let's talk." "Come here" "What do you propose?" "Is that okay?" "But please don't tell Sean" "Why don't you say earlier, just snacks, ok?" "Let's go and eat" "You finally agree?" "Yes, I got hungry" "Where should we go?" "What did you tell her?" " You're nosy" " And you like it" "What do you like to eat?" "Thanks" "The BBQ here is quite famous" "Here, have some, these are yummy" "Looks great, thanks" "See, I told you" "What?" "Nobody has brought me anywhere fun when I was little" "I've never been on a Carousel" "Don't bother, it has been inoperable for a while" "Too bad" "If you believe the horses will move, they will" "Look" "Are they moving?" "Hi!" "Faster, faster" "Lucky!" "We meet again!" " Lucky..." " Fast enough?" " Faster!" " lsn't it interesting?" "Speed up, slow poke" "Your watch alarm is on" "Right, it's time to think of you again" "You alright?" "Time's up, I'm leaving" " Hey where are you going?" " Goodbye" "We had fun, let's do this again some other time" "What's your mobile phone number?" "Forget about it, you make $6,500 a month, don't lose it all on gambling" "You think I'd fall for you watching you lose?" "That's not what I meant" "I make over $15,000 a month as a dealer" "We're not in the same league..." "don't be an idiot" "I'm not the kind of girl who will share your dreams" "I wouldn't come here... if I didn't get a $3,000 tip" "Can I go now?" "Jack just wanted you to be happy" "The $3,000 midnight snack was worthy" "It was worth way more than that" "Let him go" "I'm taking you and Sean... to Ms. Fong's joint tomorrow" "Sure" "Jack, what a game!" "Ms. Fong, that kid from Sun Casino is in our Poker Room and he has won a lot of money" "Really?" "Play with him, find out what's going on" "Yes, ma'am" "Jack, allow me to play a few hands with you" "You guys allow employees to place bets at work?" "I work for Ms. Fong, not under Casino management" "I don't know if you work for Ms. Fong or the Casino" "I'm Japanese, so my Cantonese isn't perfect" "No need to make fun of me" "Deal" "You're covering your face so you can hide your emotions" "Gutsy enough to play with me without your hood and your shades?" "Sorry, it's been a long night and I've gone cross eyed, deal" "All ln" "Sorry, ma'am, I lost half a million" "Not a big sum, get him up here" "Yes" "Jack, Ms. Fong would like to meet you" "Sure" "Sorry, only Mr. Chang" "Please wait over there" "Have a seat" "Jack, very proud to have you in our Poker room today" "You have been making a name for yourself lately" "Cleaning out one Casino after one another like a video game" "As you know, Uno Cheuk is now my mortal enemy" "My father once said that an enemy's enemy is my friend" "I guess we should collaborate" "Yeah?" "What do you have in mind?" "I want to use your Casino to humiliate Uno" "What do you mean?" "I will participate in the Asian Poker King Tournament" "I want your Casino to sponsor my bid" "Imagine seeing the Sun Casino scion... being sponsored by their rival group" "You believe I'll do that?" "That's what exactly I'm going to do!" "You will be our representative" "Our conglomerate will support your bid at the tournament" "Nothing's more humiliating than having the guy he kicked out to represent us at the tournament, right?" "That's what I wanted to say" "I'm quite pleased with this idea of mine" "Dial *0462 on the phone" "Flora, get Season over here, hang up" "I'm sorry about last time" "But a promise is a promise, and you did lose" "We...knew each other before" "Season runs our Marketing operations" "She will take care of everything and she'll get poker experts to train you up" " Thanks" " Ms. Fong, your meeting appointment" "I'm really busy, good luck" "I'm imagining Uno's complete humiliation at your hands" "I get high just thinking about it, thanks again" "Do I need to press the elevator button for you?" "You're too hilarious" "Jack, come with me" "Jack!" "Who are they?" "They're with me" "This is our Presidential Suite" "It's huge and so beautiful" "Ms. Fong wants you to live here for now" "How many persons will there be?" "Just one" "No...two sometimes" "Which one?" "I need personal information for our record" "I have a home, I'm not staying here" "Understood." "So what is your relationship to Jack?" "I'm Sean, Jack's personal assistant" "Yes, he's my assistant" "How much do I get... for assisting him?" "I used to charge over $20,000 a month" "For your record, a Poker Room Assistant Manager fetches..." "If you refuse, tell Ms. Fong I'm out ...thirty grand a month. $30,000 alright?" "It's not perfect but I'll live with it" "Two key cards for the room" "I'm staying here tonight" "Is that my baggage?" "Yours are at Smiley's, you haven't packed yet" "I'll go home and pack for you" "I live on this floor too just a few rooms down the hall from here" "That's very convenient" "Anything you said" "Sure" "Guys, this is our new Assistant Manager," "Mr. Sean Ho" " Mr. Ho" " Mr. Ho" "Stand up and greet Mr. Ho" "Mr. Ho" "I want to ask you, what's the monthly salary of a dealer here?" "Starting at $10,000, and $15,000 on the average" "$15,000 is a bit high, isn't it?" "You might not know one thing though" "Guess how much... it cost to treat a $15,000/month dealer a midnight snack?" "I honestly do not know, how much?" "$3,000!" "That expensive?" "Not really, it's not the same for everyone" "That's the price tag... only for poor kids who make a few thousand a month" "She's leaving, Mr. Ho..." "I think I went overboard..." "Lucky" "Please don't go, Lucky" "Don't go, Lucky" "I know I was too harsh last time so you can insult me anyway you want, go on" "I didn't mean that" "Whatever" "I know I am greedy and materialistic" "I formally apologize to you, Mr. Assistant Manager and I'll resign tomorrow" "No, this is not what I want" "If you quit, I'll quit too" "I used to make almond cakes for a living" "Losing my meager salary on watching you... was my highlight every month" "Look, I got promoted but I made you cry" "There's no turning back in this world" "Why not?" "Of course there is" "Remember that night?" ""Go don't please" "sorry I'm", Lucky" "This shirt does not fit you, dump it" "Wow, this looks good on you" "To win this tournament, you have to observe things that people easily missed..." "let me show you frame by frame and you'll see some minute mannerisms" "True, he does that every time he bluffs" "Yes..." " You alright" " I'm ok" "What exactly... she's doing here?" "Smiley?" "She's been my lucky charm" "I see, like an Olympics mascot, you mean?" "Didn't take you for the superstitious type" "I thought you guys are together or something" "Mascot, scoot over, don't interrupt us" "Please" "Look at this" "Winfred's an international poker coach, two of his students have won... the Las Vegas lnternational Poker Tournament" "Many top poker players hire him to coach them" "He's an asset to you for sure" "I don't care if you were a genius at online poker" "Playing it life is entirely different" "In the online world, players can play over a hundred games simultaneously" "In live poker games, you'd be lucky to top 20 games in an hour" "It's normal to lose your patience in the beginning" "You may feel bored and look for distraction you may end up Calling... for the sake of playing" "Why the heck did you Call with that hand?" "Also, you bluffed... with your online playmates in the past it was ok even if you failed, but when you play face-to-face" "Even if you have a pretty good hand you may think twice... in case you end up losing" "Lastly, the weakest link for online players when they play live is how easy their body language betray them" "For example, when you get a good hand you might start reaching for your chips and sit up..." "like you want people to know you're going in for the kill" "In truth, all these are just theories" "The most critical component in poker is actual gaming experience" "Jack Chang's been looking at the Penthouse for a long time" "Roger that" "He's downstairs, and he's looking up at us" "I want to test your observational skills." "So guess what I have in mind showing up like this?" "I don't know" "Liar!" "Cheers." "What?" "There's something I need to do" "You're seriously not going to ask me to leave" "I...really need to do something else" "I cannot concentrate with you here" "I just can't seem to read you" "You're going to regret this" "Sir, I need you to leave now" "Leave?" "Roughness isn't necessary" "Damn it, I'm Fei" "Your boss Uno Cheuk used to... be my lackey" "You don't even deserve to lick my shoes" "Get Uno Cheuk out here," "I'll show him who's the boss" "Fei!" "Here I am, are't you going to beat me?" "Mr. Cheuk, of course not, excuse me for all this" "Were they bothering you?" "So, you were going to show me who's boss, right?" "Com'on, big boss" "This is between me and him" "Go help if you want to lose your job" "Who's the boss now?" "It's broken!" "I remember when you just started" "You were so determined to be my protégé" "I was at the Lisboa and you have five minutes to fetch me" "Macau's famous congee at Ching Kee," "you were 20 seconds late" "Yet, I ended up letting you work for me" "I got more angry as you got more successful in the business" "You're now at the top of the heap, and I ran out of places to go" "I'm blacklisted in every damn Casino" "Bottoms up, Big brother Fei" "Remind me... to remove Fei's name... from our Casino's blacklist tomorrow" "Yes, Mr. Cheuk" "Get me Miss..." "Miss Fong" "Your ride will be here any minute" "I'm walking, I'm not waiting" "Walking?" " I want to see Ms. Fong!" " Sir..." "Come over here" "Tell the Fong woman that..." "Uno Cheuk wants to see her" "It's late" "I advise you to notify her now" "Nothing to drink here?" "Ms. Fong, Mr. Cheuk is here to see you" "I've already told him that it's an inappropriate time" "Did he push you aside and make his own way up here?" "Not really" "I'm coming." "Ms. Fong!" "Ms. Fong!" "Uno Cheuk, what he heck do you want at this hour?" "Two things" "Firstly, the security sucks." "I got here easily" "Secondly... why did you open your door?" "Because you wanted to come in" "I feel so alone, do you?" "I'm not alone, just lonely" "Yeah?" "Can't really tell" "I hide it well, that's why" "Do you see it now?" "You sense my loneliness now" "Now will you show me how alone you are?" "Right away" " Smiley..." " Smiley..." "Smiley" "She's never been gone for so long" "What did you do to her?" "I didn't do anything" "Perhaps it's exactly what you didn't do to her" "she left all her winnings here" "She once told me she was afraid that her lucky streak may work against her eventually" "So she never used a penny of her winnings" "Whatever happened to your observational skills you couldn't even read those right beside you" "The only reason... she went gambling with you" "is because she likes you" "I saw you win at every turn in the Casino" "What's your secret?" "Can you please teach me?" "I'm begging..." "I can help you under one condition" "I want you to think of me every night when the clock strikes twelve" "That simple?" "The simpler, the better for you, no?" "Sure, I agree" "Jack, you've undergone a radical image transformation" "I would like you to join the Asian Poker King Tournament" "Sure" "If I win, I want back what's rightfully mine" "And what would that be?" "You've never contributed anything" "May the best man win" "You're so crap I'm worried you won't survive to the finals" "You should worry about yourselves" "I will be waiting for you at the final table" "OK." "I'll see you there" "See you there" "You need three things in gambling" "Luck, Power, Swagger." "Be in it to win it" "You have Swagger now as I'm fully supporting you" "If all goes well, you can ride it to consecutive wins this winning streak gives you Power, don't ever lose it" "As for luck, it's all up to fate" "Uno Cheuk started as a small time crook" "He has got probably the worst hand of cards" "But he finds a way to ride that bad hand all the way to the top where he is today" "Welcome to the Asian Poker King Tournament" "Will the top 8 players join us at the final table" "God of Gamblers?" "Nope!" "I am not the God of Gamblers" "My inspiration is...the saint of Gamblers" "Don't cry for mama when you lose" "Let the game begins" "Shuffle up and Deal!" "Why does Uno win every time... he goes All ln?" "They're on the same team, it's their strategy to get Uno all the chips he needs... for the final push" "You're kidding!" "Raise." "All in." "Call." "Straight win." "Good hand." "All In for me" "All ln" "Jack, I shall teach you one poker principle" "Raise your sails while the wind is blowing" "So ride your luck as long as it allows you to." "Oh..." "I feel Lady Luck is on my side," "I'm not even going to see this" "I will Call even if it means suicide" "I need a spade." "Come on, give me a spade!" "Pair Jack's win." "Uno Cheuk strikes as he eliminates two players in one go" "We're down to three players... and the tension is rising!" "Jack, I just taught you how to ride your luck to the hilt" "Now I'll show you how to intimidate others... with swagger" "With a good hand and plenty of chips in hand you can dominate your opponents" "I'm going to Fold for now" "I've got a good hand!" "How did you figure out?" "It's quite obvious." "Do you believe me?" "Do you?" "All In for me" "Call" "Pair King's win." "What a game!" "Jack Chang's on a roll and has caught up," "David Lin slides down to 3rd place" "It's now down to a duel between the top 2 players" "Who will be crowned the Poker King?" "Jack's got over $1 0 Million now, so what if doesn't win?" "One can't get too greedy, no?" "Someone please explain the rules to him" "Those chips aren't real money, they're just game points" "Applause!" "The moment has finally arrived" "Jack, you did what you set out to do" "Fold." "Jack, watch out." "The Blinds keep getting higher, you'll lose all your chips in time" "You're waiting for Lady Luck?" "8...10..." "A..." "My luck is back, I need to go help Jack" "Check." "All ln" "Finally some guts, Jack." "Call" "Four Queens with J kicker wins." "Uno's Pair of 10 doesn't do it" "Though his luck didn't switch to Jack it doesn't seem as powerful as it was a while ago" "I'm so hurt losing to you like this" "It's not due to sadness, I know, It's due to anger" "You need to learn about losing gracefully" "Use a few million to buy yourself a lesson, it's worthy" "I have Pocket Kings" "Do you believe me?" "Fold" "I have 4 of Diamonds and 8 of Clovers, trust me?" "Call" "You choose to believe in the wrong things" "I just can't get a good read on you" "I didn't realize that Jack is this...interesting!" "I wish I had a Straight Flush but..." "I really have a Straight Hand" "I Fold" "Good on you." "Quite a win streak you've cobbled together" "I should thank you" "It looked like you banished me, but you were just training me" "You've been watching my every move" "Just in case I went astray?" "This is your idea of a good life?" "I'm motified..." "then what kind of a life I'm having?" "Why humiliate me further when I was making Almond Cakes?" "Of course I can figure out your intention" "Uno you're extremely conflicted" "You want me to be capable enough to rule, but you don't want to relinquish" "No one can get a read on you" "Not even yourself" "You have been bluffing me all along" "Now you know" "The best bluffs are those that start from the beginning" "I just got back, I don't know what I'm doing..." "Can you repeat everything you just said?" "I'm hungry, gotta eat something" "You never should have underestimated me" "$3 Million" "Fine" "I'm not even going to look at my cards" "Let luck decide." "Call." "Check." "$6 Million" "Call" "Check." "If Jack isn't up for it" "I want you to run the business" "I don't want the Empire you and I built to crumble at the hands of an idiot" "What if I can train him up?" "You took me in when I was just a gambling addict and you taught me everything" "I'm All ln" "Uno Cheuk, you finally went All ln" "I'm with you no matter what, All ln" "What was it?" "It's a deadlock" "It now depends on the River card" "Uno wins if a Diamond turns up" "Jack nails it if it's a Spade" "Spade..." "Spade..." "Diamond..." "Diamond..." "Jack Chang is this year's Poker King" "Sorry, Miss" "I have a question" "You had this seemingly lucky girl beside you" "How much luck did she bring to your game?" "I won poker games by myself" "Then you may want to explain that" "She's right behind you" "Uno" "You're always welcome at my joint" "Thank you." "Smiley..." "The good fortune you brought me wasn't in gambling" "Meeting you has been the luckiest thing that ever happened to me" "This isn't a con and I'm not a bad person" "Can you please stay with me" "I don't want to be alone... at 12 midnight thinking of someone I'm not with" "Quit following me" "I lost everything" "Just leave, will you?" "You like me?" "I think I have seen your pocket cards" "I know you have and I want you to see them clearly" "Am I a Casanova or what?" "Uno Cheuk" "How about you start with working for us at a low position?" "1, 2, 3, 4, 5..." "Thought better of it...turn around" "How low you're offering?" "Well perhaps as an Almond Cake maker?" "Chairman of the Company, good enough?" "That's a promotion, why the heck not?" "But only under one condition" "OK" "I want you to think of me every night when the clock strikes 12" "That simple?" "I will promise you that" "It's to him actually" "Here, this watch is set to an alarm every midnight, when it beeps, think of me" "Man, I am so used to the weight of diamond watches" "This is much lighter, feels good" "Just because you're great at poker, doesn't mean you'll be a great manager" "I wanted to see for myself how good you can be" "Obviously you passed the test" "What now?" "A wedding?" "We just want to date first" "I promised my Master... we'd play in tournaments around the world" "You have a Master?" "Master!" "Allow me to introduce you to the real Master of Poker, Mr. Johnny Chan" "THE Johnny Chan who was crowned World Champ 10 times?" "That would be me, Uno Cheuk, you're pretty good at the game" "No wonder I lost...bear in mind I'm world ranked, too, though" "You guys can talk about rankings, let's go, Master" "Bye, take your time before you come back" "Jack, the tournament is still waiting for you to get the trophy" "You and Lucky can have it as a souvenir, see you soon!"
