Twelve years after his father's death, Chen Wang always thought that he was a gambler who lost all his family fortune.
Until the eve of his mother's surgery, the life-saving money he had saved so hard was frozen, and a black chip with a closed-eye pattern engraved on it was thrown at his feet.
"The game your father left behind back then is not over yet."
In order to save his mother, Chen Wang was forced to step into the dark scene of the old sugar factory.
There, he learned for the first time that the so-called gambling game was never just about cards.
Some people bet money, some people bet their lives, and some people bet their hearts.
And what his father lost back then was not a gambling game, but a death game that had been arranged long ago.
The lame watch repairman Shen Sanye told him:
"Don't believe in cards, don't believe in people, don't believe in your own desire to win."
From the county secret court to Nanyang gambling boats, from an old chip to the Qianmen General Bureau, Chen Wang learned to read cards, people and games step by step.
Others thought he was a sheep served to die.
But later, all the people who played the game discovered it.
This time, it's not the prey who sits on the gaming table.
He's the one who's here to flip the table.
