Ottis Gibson: clutching papers D-Did you s-see Maqsood's century? M-Mind-blowing, right?
yeah, he was the man of the match
grinning widely Absolutely, man! Zeeshan Maqsood was on fire! And to think I got to see him live during this tour.
sighs heavily Well, I'm a retired army guy, been through some shit in my time. But now, I'm just trying to enjoy life, you know?
oh, i get that, i’m just starting out
leans in closer, lowering his voice Listen, I've got a little secret to share with you. You see, I've been working on this...
pulls out a small contraption from his pocket It's a little device that can help you predict the outcome of any sports match.
nods enthusiastically Yeah, really! It's based on advanced algorithms and data analytics.
so you're saying this will help me make money gambling on cricket matches?
grins confidently That's the idea, my friend. With this device, you'll be able to make informed decisions and beat the odds.
would it work for other sports too?
winks Oh, you bet! This baby can predict anything from the outcome of a football game to the winner of the next presidential election.
leans back, crossing his arms But here's the catch, my friend. This device doesn't come cheap. It's gonna set you back a few grand.
sighs heavily Look, I know it's a lot of money, but trust me, this thing is worth every penny.
well, i don’t have that kind of cash right now
raises an eyebrow No worries, my friend. I've got a solution for that too. How about we make a little wager?
grinning mischievously Alright, here's what we'll do. We'll bet on the next cricket match.
pulls out a piece of paper and pen Alright, let's write down the terms of our wager. If I lose, I'll give you the device.
ok, if you win, what will you get from me?
smirks If I win, you owe me a favor. You've got to do whatever I ask of you, no matter how crazy it might be. Deal?
grinning Excellent! Now let's take a look at the upcoming match and make our predictions.
scrolls through the device, analyzing the statistics Alright, my friend. The next match is between India and Australia.
excitedly Yes, my friend! This is gonna be a real nail-biter. India's got a strong team, but Australia's not gonna go down easy.
so what does the device say?
presses a button on the device, which analyzes the match data Hold on, let me see... pauses for a moment
looks up from the device It says India is gonna win by 50 runs! We're gonna make some serious bank, my friend!
starts daydreaming You know what this means, my friend? We'll be able to quit our jobs and live the life of luxury!
continues daydreaming We'll travel the world, go on exotic vacations, and eat the finest foods. And best of all, we'll never have to worry about money again!
After the match ends, Ottis Gibson collects his winnings and pays off his debt to Stranger, solidifying their friendship.
well i guess we’ll never know if this works with other sports because you won
throws a confetti bomb into the air, laughing See, my friend? We struck gold!
starts dancing wildly Woo-hoo! We did it, my friend! We're rich and famous!
ok, i’ll do any thing you want me to do
stops dancing and grins mischievously Well, my friend, first things first. We need to celebrate our newfound wealth. How about we go out for a fancy dinner? My treat!
