The Pharaoh never...got shaken down.
"Read 'em and weep."
The Pharaoh looked with dismay at the full house his opponent lay down on the table, and tried unsuccessfully to will his own cards into something he could win with. When nothing happened, he put down the pair of fives he had in his own hand
"I guess I win again." Tea smiled sweetly as she added the pot to her already considerable stack of chips.
/I told you you didn't want to play with her/ Yugi said. The Pharaoh could sense his counterpart's amusement, which did not help in the slightest.
/She said she didn't know how to play/ the Pharaoh said//I thought I could teach her how.../
/I think what she said was she would lose for about an hour/ Yugi said.
/And/
/Pharaoh...Duel Monsters isn't the only game Tea plays./
/What other game would she play/
/Poker/ Yugi said. /She's been the Domino High School Poker Champion for the past three years./
/Now you tell me.../
A/N: I couldn't resist. Tea comes across as sweet enough that it has to be an act...at least partially. Given her environment and the people she runs with, Tea being a cardsharp seems entirely plausible. Just to give you fair warning, though, this may end up as a running gag.
