Card game with Mephistopheles (A Faustian Tale)

CATEGORY

Card game with Mephistopheles..

Plasma red poker table with actual legs of sinners cutoff at the thigh.

Mephistopheles, resplendent, crisp in Brioni dinner jacket..

Formally attired 666 monogrammed on Egyptian cotton shirts.

Shuffling 52 cards.

Kings,Queens slide past Spades and Jacks.

Mephistopheles, master of all games of chance.

Compelling 5 card studs to play in freeway traffic..

Dealing from the bottom of the deck with a flawless diamond pinky ring.

Face cards cohabitate inner space.

Face cards hide your naked self..

Sandwiched between glossy esoteric playing cards..

Played by Mephistopheles, he holds cards in underworld Casinos

With no clocks. Enticing involuntary gamblers to play themselves..

The house always wins..
