A Calculated Gamble

By Ed Teja

"If you don't gamble, you'll never win." - Aldous Huxley

Aaron is a professional poker player stopping over in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. After he takes part in a casual game, a corrupt official demands that he play in a high-stakes game. Chea Pran wants to stake Aaron so that he can humiliate his arch enemy. If he refuses, he will be deported to a country he just fled from. And returning isn't a good option. Not until things cool off there.

At the game, he learns that Alex, the man he is supposed to ruin is the local boss of the Russian mafia. Taking either side is a gamble, but he is going to have to pick one and deal with the consequences. There is no middle ground. That means he has to calculate his odds and play the cards he's dealt.

When not playing isn't an option and there are dire consequences to winning or losing, how can you improve the odds?
