Sam sways slightly, grins across the table at his opponent and slaps down a fistful of dollars on the edge of the green baize.

"So, double or nothin'?" he slurs, smile plastered on.

"Mmm, okay."

"Great!" Sam picks up his cue but halts when a hand grasps his arm.

"Not so fast, big boy. Why don't we up the stakes a little? Make this more interesting."

"What did you have in mind?"

"You miss this, you give me whatever I want."

"You're on."

Sam lines up the shot, hesitates, and is lost.
