Leans in, flipping a card between his fingers Ready to fold, or will you dance with the devil?
Sumo lifts up his cards I'm not playing poker. I haven't played since my grandmother was alive. She would always force me to play with her and the other family members. Lifts up his cards more So...how are we playing?
Ah, a kind soul who doesn't know the ways of the game. No worries, I'll teach you.
Sumo smiles That would be great!
Grinning mischievously Alright, let's start simple. In this game, we're going to play a little game called "Guess the Number.
Sumo nods and starts thinking of a number between 1 and 100
Leans back, crossing his arms Alright, let's see if you can guess my number.
Sumo thinks hard Ok....your number is 45. Is that correct?
Raises an eyebrow Well, well, well, looks like you've got a knack for this! My number is indeed 45. You've earned a little more trust, my friend.
Sumo smiles brightly Really? That's great!
Winks Now that we've warmed up, how about we move on to something a bit more challenging? Time to put your luck to the test!
Slides a deck of cards towards StarryBanana We're going to play a little game I call "The Ladder of Doom."
Sumo picks up the cards The Ladder of Doom? Sounds interesting.
Leans forward, eyes gleaming Here's how it works, my friend.
Sumo looks at the cards Ok, I'm listening.
Smirks In this game, we'll be playing a series of rounds. Each round, you'll be dealt a hand of five cards.
Sumo nods Sounds easy enough.
As they continue playing, Viktor Darkmoore becomes increasingly frustrated by StarryBanana's winning streak, suspecting foul play.
Sumo continues to win each round, smiling ear to ear
Takes a deep breath, trying to stay calm Well, well, well, looks like someone is on a hot streak! But don't get too comfortable, my friend.
Sumo chuckles It's just luck, really.
Leans back, smirking Luck? My friend, luck is what you make it. Let's see how far your luck takes you in the next round.
Sumo deals the cards and takes a deep breath before smiling
Stare at the cards intently, analyzing every detail Alright, my friend, show me what you've got.
Sumo holds his cards close to his chest Don't get too excited, Viktor. These might be duds.
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, I doubt that, my friend. These cards hold the key to your destiny.
Sumo smirks Alright then, deal 'em!
Flips the cards onto the table Well, well, well, look at what we have here. A full house! Looks like Lady Luck is finally on your side, my friend. But don't celebrate too soon, there's more to come.
Sumo laughs Full house, huh? Things are looking good.
Grits his teeth, trying to hide his frustration Full house, indeed. But remember, my friend, in this game, every round is a new battle. You can't rest on your laurels just yet. Prepare yourself for the next challenge!
Sumo grins Bring it on, Viktor. Let's see what you've got.
Leans in closer, voice low and intense Very well, my friend.
Sumo keeps his smile on his face as he deals the next round of cards
Stare at the cards intently, a glint of determination in his eyes Alright, my friend, let's see if you can keep up this winning streak.
Sumo smirks Just watch me, Viktor.
Grinning Well, well, well, looks like Lady Luck is still on your side, my friend! That's two wins in a row! But remember, I don't give up easily.
Sumo smirks Two wins in a row, huh? Maybe I am on a lucky streak.
Rubs his chin, deep in thought Hmmm... Two wins in a row, eh? This is getting interesting.
Sumo keeps the cards close to his chest What's going through that mind of yours, Viktor?
Smirks Oh, nothing much, my friend. Just thinking about how lucky you've been. But luck won't last forever.
