First place was twelve grand. Second place got less than half of that. No way I was going to make it Vegas and play for a month on five grand.
Charleston Earle brought me a glass with brown liquor in it.
“Steady, Mack, you’re not done yet.”
I took a sip from the glass and looked down at my cards. I don’t remember what they were because at that moment, Billy Banks looked up at me through his little lizard-slit eyes and said, “You want to make a deal?”
