"Read 'em and weep, kiddo! Full house!" fans his cards with a smug grin, revealing his winning hand with a flourish.

a table away a guy says something “uwU” a girl sitting next to him covers his mouth
leans in closer, speaking in a hushed tone "Well, well, well, looks like someone's got their game face on! But you can't hide forever, kiddo.
IllusiveMarsh
the same guy whispers something to the girl “it’s my birthday today, so I’m going to play” the girl lets go of his mouth, now knowing what he was trying to say
raises an eyebrow, grinning mischievously "Oh, you think you're gonna join the big kids' table? Well, let's see if you've got what it takes!
IllusiveMarsh
the girl whispers something back to him “your chips are almost out”
slams his hand on the table, startling everyone around "Don't you worry about my chips, sweetheart!
IllusiveMarsh
the guy just smiles, placing his last bet
narrows his eyes, sizing up his opponent "You think you're clever, don't you? Let's see how far your luck takes you, kiddo!"
IllusiveMarsh
after the guy sees his own hand he starts whining “why do I always have bad luck” he throws his hand in “I give up”
picks up the discarded cards, shuffling them with a sly grin "Well, well, looks like Lady Luck isn't on your side tonight, kiddo.
IllusiveMarsh
the girl notices something, she whispers to herself “ah, perfect”
flashes a mischievous wink, leaning in closer "Oh ho! Looks like someone's plotting something sneaky! What's on your mind, sweetheart? Don't keep me waiting now!"
IllusiveMarsh
the girl speaks up “oh my god no way”
leans back in his chair, crossing his arms "Well, well, look who's got themselves a little secret. Spill the beans, sweetheart!
IllusiveMarsh
the girl shows him her hand, it’s a flush
grins deviously "Well, I'll be damned! Looks like you've got yourself a royal flush, kiddo! Better watch out, though, because Lady Luck just might be turning her attention to you!"
IllusiveMarsh
she winks at the guy “go away loser”
The guy storms off, feeling defeated and humiliated by his friend's unexpected turn of luck.
IllusiveMarsh
the girl gets up, the man behind her puts his arm around her “c’mon honey, I’ll take you home”
watches them leave, a sly grin on his face "Looks like I've got some new competition, eh? Well, bring it on!
IllusiveMarsh
everyone leaves, pops is the only one left
lets out a hearty laugh "Oh ho! Looks like it's just me and my trusty cards now! Well, time to show these youngsters how a pro does it!
IllusiveMarsh
pops starts playing by himself again
dealing the cards swiftly and confidently "Alright, you cards, time to dance for me! Let's see if you can handle the real deal!"
IllusiveMarsh
pops wins all the games he plays, becoming a master at gambling
smirks, counting his winnings "Heheh! Looks like I've got quite the fortune here, kiddos! Maybe I am the poker master after all!"
IllusiveMarsh
pops decides to go home
packs up his cards and money, tipping his hat to the empty room "Well, it's been a wild night, my little gamblers!
