The Big Score (Closed)

[FireyIce]

Dane watched Yvonne as she headed to a roulette table. He made no intention of hiding that he was looking at her ass since she was wearing heels. After a moment, he went to a slot machine that gave a good view of some of the blackjack tables. He took a look at two of them while working on the slots. He took a few drinks as he started to win and lose several dozen times at the slots.

Once he got a good feeling of what the right table was, he pulled out his phone and sent a text to Yvonne. It just said “Blackjack table” before he put it back in his pocket. As he made his way to the table, he started to play a few hands before catching Yvonne out the corner of his eye. When he saw her sit down, he heard her ask if she could join. With a semi-defiant attitude he looked at her and said, “Sure. It’s a tough table though. I’m already down a few hundred dollars though,” he told her as he signaled for a drink from one of the waitress’s walking by.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne took in his act and looked at him and said with a chuckle " Having bad luck pretty boy?" She teased earning a few chuckles from the men at the table. She lost a few times as well pretending to grow frustrated and stood to leave when one of the men stopped her convincing her to try one more time and she smiled telling him she would and what a mistake that was.

She has watched all of the men's body language and she again had earned them a couple hundred thousand because she had been really good at the game. She took her earning and stuffed them into the small back texting him to meet her at the restaurant.

She won a couple hundred more at the coin slots and cashed in before heading down the restaurant a block down. Spotting the car and Alex and smiled.

 

[FireyIce]

“Bad luck would be some good luck for me right now,” he said acting frustrated. He played out a few more hands with betting the wrong amounts on purpose. He had been winning low and losing high. “Fuck this,” he said after a while and stormed off. Luckily, he knew that Yvonne was familiar with how their system was working.

He went to a poker table and played a few hands. Going against others and not the dealer was a better bet on his part. He could read their faces and see when they were debating on what to do or not to do. He figured he wouldn’t drop in too much before making a nice profit. He stayed at the table until he broke a little bit more than even from when he first entered the casino.

When he left, he got the car from the valet and headed down the street to the restaurant. When he saw her come closer, he got out and greeted her with a kiss. “How did it go?” he asked as he walked into the restaurant with her. When they got in, there wasn’t much of a wait so getting a table wasn’t an issue. Dane had requested one of the quieter spots so that they could talk without being overheard. Again, he ordered just a simple water since he had a few drinks at the casino.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne smiled kissing him back as he greeted her and she smirked as he asked how it went "Let's just say I left a couple of old dogs howling"she laughed remembering the older men trying to flirt with her "Made nearly a million total at the table. " she said softly deciding she'd give the money back at the room and she looked across the street seeing something for a two million dollar prize and more .

" Do you see that babe?" She said pointing toward the sign out the window. She saw the smirk on his face and she knew he'd be in. She ordered a glass of champagne and she looked over the menu.

 

[FireyIce]

“I do,” he said as she pointed out the sign. “Two million, huh,” Dane said. “I’m thinking we’ll need to check out the details for said prize. It would definitely help with gaining our rep if we won or got into some top tier category where we would be given publicity,” he pointed out. “Besides, we can always stay longer if need be. Or make a change in our trip. I think we might be able to afford it,” he said in a joking manner.

Dane looked over at the menu to see what looked good. He was thinking about a steak as he continued to see what choices there were. “So, are you ready for later on tonight?” he asked hinting at the wedding. “Did we miss anything as far as with the planning?” he thought out loud as he started to double check what they had to finish doing to get ready.

 

[MzSeductress]

"Yeah Dane I think we're all set actually we have everything we need except our wedding clothes but I think we can rent a tux and dress" she said and thanked the male waiter who brought their drinks to the table. He asked what they're order and she told him she'd have the chicken Al a vodka .

She heard him order a steak and the waiter asked if they needed anything else and she told him they were great. She watched him walking off the turned to Dane again " You thought of anything we need babe?"

 

[FireyIce]

Dane thought if there was anything else that he needed before he answered. “I think we’re good,” he told the waitress as she left to take care of their order. He turned his attention over to Yvonne after he placed his order.

“As for our wedding in a few hours, I think we have everything that we need,” he said with as much assurance as he could muster. He looked at her lovely eyes and hair. “I think they’ll have tuxes and dresses that we can use. If not, then we’re probably not going to be the worst dressed people to ever get married in a 24 hour chapel.”

They continued to wait for their food, talking at the same time about what else to do during that time. “Can you find anything on your phone about the contest across the street?” he asked as he thought about it. “I’d like to know what it is and what else they’re doing for prizes. And when it is,” he remembered at the last moment. “That would be a huge advantage to our grand entrance back into L.A. as a wealthy couple up and coming for the huge socialites.”

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne nodded agreeing they'd be fine if they hadn't had the clothes and she searched the contest prize as wel. " ok Dane it says her that the winnings are a million and 700 thousand and the rest includes a luxury three night stay for two in the best hotel in Vegas, a week long trip to Hawaiii for two and a picture with the guest celebrities"she grinned "Sounds exactly like what we need baby"she said.

She sipped her drink sighing and said "Nothing better than a Cosmo babe"she grinned "You want to try some?"

 

[FireyIce]

“Sure, I’ll try a sip,” Dane said as he took the glass and had a small sip. “It is pretty good,” he told her as he handed it back. He was still processing the idea of how much the rewards would help them with winning. “I would definitely love a week in Hawaii,” he said as he was imagining them on a beach just relaxing for the better part of a week.

“So, what game is it?” he asked as he thought about what games either of them could be good or bad at. He figured there might be some concern with how much he lost, though intentionally, in front of her. As much as he didn’t want to show a huge run on some of the tables, he was very good at poker. It wouldn’t be too hard to hustle some of the people if it was poker and quickly turn his “bad luck” into “good luck” but he would still need to find out what Yvonne thought.

 

[MzSeductress]

She smiled and said "I'm glad you like it you should know it's my favorite. Anyway it says here that there is a game of blackjack and three games of poker. That shouldn't be too hard" she smirked " There's a $100 fee to play but in sure we can manage "she chuckled "I can't wait until we get to Hawaii" she said imaging the fun they'd have.

She also saw tv stations there which meant they were there to interview players and of course the winner and ask them the famous question of what he'd do with the money. The waiter returned with their meal which she was great full for a little hungry from the light lunch. " Thank you" she told the waiter and handed Alex the phone so he could see the terms as well.

 

[FireyIce]

“Hmmm, seems simple enough,” he said as he looked at the phone and read the rules and some of the exclusions. “So, who gets to play?” Dane inquired as he finished checking everything. “I know you’ve been on a nice hot streak lately and I’ve lost a few grand, but keep in mind that was for show,” he told her as he made a pitch.

Dane watched as they brought them their food and thanked the waiter as well. He also decided to order a bottle of white wine to be brought out at their earliest convenience. They started to eat and talk about the possibilities before the wine was brought out for them. Most of the conversation was based on either the contest or wedding.

“I think regardless, we should just hustle them and make it look like we’re easy pickings. You know, get their guard down before striking,” he suggested. There were many times that he hustled people and though they didn’t like it, an environment like this would make it to where they couldn’t retaliate. “What are your thoughts dear?” he inquired as he finished his food and sipped some wine.

 

[MzSeductress]

" I'm thinking that you join in and I'll play arm candy or that we play as partners but we're not very good and you hustle those guys out of their seats"she smirked knowing Alex was more than capable.

She sipped the wine and ate her dinner thinking of how they could do this easily without dection. She smiled at him saying " What are your ideas for this baby?" She asked curious on what his approach may be.

 

[FireyIce]

“I’m thinking I can do it solo and you can be a nice distraction for the other players,” Dane suggested. He thought for a moment before adding, “I can make it seem like I’m well over my head, maybe get to where I can barely afford a buy in for the next round if its poker or go stupid and go all in depending on the hand. There’s a chance they’d have to match it and some others might not get to be so lucky as a result.”

Dane moved a little bit closer and gave Yvonne a small peck on the cheek. “Blackjack I’d just have to throw some guaranteed hands they won’t get suspicious of counting cards. I can also call bullshit on someone else who would benefit from that and make them be under the microscope. We just need them to lose. I’d like to do that very quickly,” he told her as he continued to think about what to do. “Maybe, we can get some practice in at a smaller casino before our wedding to make sure we don’t mess up.”

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne smiled glad he was getting more comfortable with her and she listened to his plans and agreed only one of them should play so people weren't suspicious. " I definitely can handle being eye candy for the night it wouldn't besmartbfor us both to play they may suspect something is up. " she said

She looked at him as they finished eating and she said " That's a good idea babe we should get headed out because the tournament is two hours and we should be there on time. " The waiter returned to clear the table and brought their bill over andthey psid and were on their way to a small casino for practice.

They arrived a few minutes later and she spotted the poker table and pointed him to it " Alirght babe time to work some magic" she said and headed toward one of the table observing then nodded her head to call him over

 

[FireyIce]

Dane paid the bill as they left. When they headed to the other casino, it looked like not many people were there. They went to the poker table and Dane played for about half an hour before clearing out the small amount of competition. This time he wasn’t trying to hustle anyone, he just wanted to do a straight up victory to make sure he still knew what he was doing.

When he finished with his game, he looked over at Yvonne. “So, what do you think dear?” he asked with a slight smirk as he looked into her lovely eyes. “I just had to figure out if any changes in my strategy had to be made before we finish. Granted it’s only a few grand, but better than nothing,” he added. “So, how are you going to be a good high quality distraction?” he inquired as he got up and went to cash out his chips.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne grinned seeing him play and he was very good without the hustling in fact he could be one of the professionals. She leaned down giving him a kiss and said "You are quite the card shark baby and I think competion should be very afraid of you Dane" she giggled.

She stepped back letting him stand and smirked leaning sexily against the poker table her curves fully on display and she grinned saying. " Oh I think I can find a way to get these men distracted .., and keep an eye on those card if you need me too baby ." She chuckled and stood following him toward where he went to cash chops falling back slightly.

 

[FireyIce]

Dane handed her several hundred dollars. “I don’t want you to be too bored while I’m trying to win,” he told her as he wrapped his arm around her while they walked. “I think we’ll be good without having to sneak a peek at the competitions cards,” had assured her as he kissed her cheek.

When they got to the casino, Dane went to go register and pay. He knew that they still had some time before the tournament would start. It was interesting to him how many people were going to try to win and how quickly the amount of money and prizes were going to be changing hands. They walked around for a while looking at the other people that were contending as well. The competition did seem to be very firm and solid players. This would be an interesting challenge indeed, he thought to himself.

“So, do you have any ideas?” he suggested as they looked and saw that it was almost time to start. There was a good amount of planning that Dane was doing in his head while getting ready to begin this tournament.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne rolled the money up and slid it into her bra as they left for the other casino she had plenty of money from earlier and didn't really need but she figured that she would save it accessorise for the wedding later.

She looked at him as he asked for suggestions and said " Stsy focused weed out the weak players which are a lot and I'd say in about an hour majority of that game will be out " she said confidently. " Those two are professionals.. Just stand ins they're not doing it for money just for fun but they're who you need to best babe" she said

She leaned in kissing him deeply and said " Good Luck Dane" she said walking away and headed to a spot she could watch for a bit as the tournament went on.

 

[FireyIce]

“Thanks babe,” he told her as he went to his first table. As it was somewhat expected, it consisted of a lot of the same people, amateurs who were looking for their quick way to fame. It didn’t take long for him to win a few hands, increasing his pool by a lot. When he saw that he had a good majority of the prizes, he simply waited for a good solid hand and went all in. The process was fairly quick and easy as everyone had to go all in, making the other seven people at the table lose at the same time.

Dane looked around trying to figure out where Yvonne was, seeing if she was messing around with the competitions focus at all. He did admit to himself that she did look very stunning in the dress she was wearing. For the next few rounds, the same aggressive style had been working well. Though there were times that he didn’t knock out all of them at the same time, the amount of effort was still relatively easy.

After a few hours, the last few people were being vetted out for the championship game. As Dane entered, he looked highly stressed, as if he didn’t expect to get this far. As the match started, he took his cards, his hands shaking as he tried to see what he should do. He made several “mistakes” that cost him several hands. He noticed Yvonne as he continued to put on his show, wondering what she was thinking or if she would be looking at some way to get his competition to lose focus on their playing.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne had watched the entire match not seeing much that interested her on the large casino packed with customers. She flirted her way paat the guards around the table and managed to make it close enough to distract a few of the men with her sexy curves and charming encouraging words.

She saw Dane watching her on and off and hoped his focus was all on the game. She saw he was down to his last round and a man asked her how much which earned him a nice slap and security escorting him out with him not too pleased about it which wasn't the distraction she wanted but it helped some.

She grinned seeing it was down to Dane and the man and sexily moved her way toward Dane with a smile sexily lending against the table."Your on the wrong side gorgeous.. A lady like you should be with a winner "the man on the other side said .

Yvonne smirked turning to look at him seeing he took the bait and leaned forward sexily chuckled saying " Oh is that so?"she grinned and slid her hand up Danes arm "And what makes you think pretty boy here won't win?" She asked

"He's nervous" the man said cockily. She smirked giving Dane a slight look before moving to the other side of the table. She wouldn't get physical with the man but flirt. "Ok big guy ...Lets see you win this and umm.. Maybe later we'll have some fun"she said and trailed her hand down his chest eyeing his cards slightly and after seeing Both she knew Dane would definitely win with his hand.

 

[FireyIce]

Dane watched as Yvonne made her way back and forth between the two of them. Regardless of what Yvonne saw with both of their hands, he wasn’t fazed at all by his lame insults against him. Dane thought that it was time to end this game. “How about we do this a bit different?” he inquired. “Not only do we both go all in before we see the last two cards making it be a partial blind take all, but the winner also gets the girl,” he offered. He wasn’t sure what Yvonne would think of the offer as he pretty much was using her as a prize.

Before the man could respond, Dane had moved his pile of chips towards the center, “All in,” he declared while still looking nervous. “I can’t tell you what to do, but I’m sure you might look weak if you don’t follow suit,” he told the man. With the amount of money on the line, the last thing that the guy would want to do is lose, let alone look weak.

Dane looked over at the dealer who wasn’t sure what to do. Right now only 3 of the 5 cards had been revealed and unless he was holding a few better cards, then Dane had this in the bag. He had been paying attention to the cards and knew that the chances of his opponent having the right cards of what was on the table were slim, though still possible.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne raised her eyebrow hearing Dane offer her up along with the prize and if she hadn't known he was definitely going to win she'd be upset. She saw the man hesitate and she grinned " What's the matter honey don't you think I'm worth the gamble?" She said and ran her hand down his thick arm.

" Hell yeah you are baby" the man said eyeing her lustfully.

Yvonne smirked and saw the.man stupidly went all in and said " Maybe we can hit the chapels and honeymoon in Hawaii once were through here beauty" and Belle rolled her eyes inwardly and said " One step at a time handsome" she winked and moved over to one of the empty stools on the side watching the two of them.

 

[FireyIce]

Dane took a quick look at his hands as he watched his opponent go all in. He had been watching his tics with his playing style for close to the last hour. He had pretty much found out when he was trying to pull off bluffing. As the chips went all in, Dane did the math in his brain. Though a royal flush would’ve been ideal, a high straight flush would have to do. Before the last two cards were revealed, Dane tossed his cards down calling his hand, “Straight flush. Unless they turn over two cards you would need to break that, then its game over for you.” Dane watched as the man sitting across from him started to lose color in his face.

As Dane had calculated, neither of the last two cards had anything to do in his opponent’s hand. He watched as his opponent had thrown down his cards in disgust and walked away. As he did Dane looked over at Yvonne. “So, how did this ‘pretty boy’ do?” he asked with a smirk. There were a few moments as he watched the table get cleared and then they got escorted to the winning area to look over and sign the paperwork.

By the time they were done with everything, they had scheduled a time for tomorrow night to do a more proper photo shoot and to do finalized paperwork with their prize package since they did disclose they were getting married in an hour or so. They did a few quick publicity photos before starting to head out. “So, did you have fun watching me?” he asked as they headed over towards the wedding chapel.

 

[MzSeductress]

Yvonne headed over kissing him as he won and saw the man storming off like a sore loser. " I think you did damn good Dane especially with how intense the game was"she grinned they kissed some more after the table got clear and they were escorted to the winners area where he signed paperwork and they declared they were getting married in an hour.

They took a few photos for the press before he grabbed her hand and they walked past the crowd and their car was ready outside. He asked her if she enjoyed watching him and she grinned quoting the man from earlier "Hell yeah I did baby"she chuckled and leaned over kissing him at the red light "I'm glad you were the one to play "

They arrived at the chapel in about 20 minutes and the hostess quickly escorted them off to get dressed so they wouldn't be late. Yvonne was taken to a room so she could shower quickly they did her hair and makeup and she got to pick a dress with some gorgeous accessories. The woman makeup artist applauded herself and asked If she could take a picture because she was one of the most gorgeous brides she seen come in there .

They gave her champagne and tea cookies to snack on with 10minutes left and began escorting her toward the chapel room saying he would be stunned seeing her.

 

[FireyIce]

Dane laughed on the way to the car when she quoted the guy. The drive to the wedding chapel was fairly short. It didn’t take long for them to be split apart and cleaned up. As he went to go get changed, he grabbed a quick shower and put on a standard tux. When he finished getting ready, he made sure to splash some water on his face to make sure he was still awake. The day had been fairly long and he was going to be glad when it was over.

When he was finished getting dressed he waited down the end of the aisle. Though there weren’t many people, just the ones who were waiting after them to get married, it did look like a descent small wedding. He was a bit surprised when he saw Yvonne show up and walk down the aisle. He was very surprised at how stunning she looked in her dress. He was also a bit surprised that she went with a more traditional look rather than a modern one, though he wasn’t going to complain at all.

When she got to the end of the aisle he watched as she walked up the steps. “You look beautiful,” he told her as he looked into her eyes. “Are you ready for this?” he asked as the ceremony began to start. In the most ironic way, this was more nerve wrecking than the tournament that he had just won.
