<v Speaker 1>In a dark poker room in Buenos Aires, the air

00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.879
<v Speaker 1>clear goal to win the money needed for his sister's education.

00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:30.639
<v Speaker 1>the players closely. Elle Ra famosa la Loozemas. She was

76
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:32.879

00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 5>for his aggressive tactics and confident laughter, made the novices tremble.

82
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:06.720
<v Speaker 1>winter had brought a chili breeze to the south, but

83
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>inside the room, the heat of the competition contrasted with

00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:20.399
<v Speaker 1>the outside weather. Elrido de lasi la rispiras pasio carji.

85
00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>The sound of shuffling cards and tense breathing was the

86
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:29.800
<v Speaker 1>only thing audible in the energy charged space. Mateo saville

00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and he wanted to be the one to make that

90
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:49.519

<v Speaker 1>play it safe or risk at all.

00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Carlos smiled smugly and raised the beat with more chips

00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.279

<v Speaker 1>just like a clever fox, when a wolf was disguised

113
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:38.080
<v Speaker 1>The same with Lucia. She was too confident in her

114
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:41.840
<v Speaker 1>ability to read others, often forgetting that others could also read.

00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:52.480

128
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:56.559
<v Speaker 1>as he collected the chips, but a smile of relief

129
00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:58.159
<v Speaker 1>and victory appeared on his face.

00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:51.559
<v Speaker 1>the certainty that he could face any challenge for his family.
