John Benton has nothing left to lose. He's barely making enough to survive and living in a sweltering room in downtown Los Angeles. Then he finds out that his wife is pregnant. He hears about a game where players are making a lot of money. He thinks it may be his way to escape and find a better life for his family.

He didn't count on the guns. Or that he'd be going up against opponents who will do anything to win a game with no rules. He definitely didn't count on the adrenaline rush. Now, he has to fight for his life to save his wife and child, in a game where the deck is stacked against him and the house always wins.
