A story about breaking the rules, beating the odds and realizing the only game that's being played is you. Edward is a compulsive gambler who's lost everything and is forced to work as a numbers runner for "Deepthroat," a sadistic sociopath and big time professional gambler. From his high tech sanctuary, Deepthroat takes perverse pleasure in putting Edward to the test - waiting for him to slip up and checking for every dollar. Edward tries to start a new life with his beautiful girlfriend, but when some money goes missing, Deepthroat wants his payback, and one last desperate gamble on human nature will decide their futures.
