Poker Face: A High-Stakes Drama

人物 (Characters):

* Leo ("The Shark"): 经验丰富、冷静的资深玩家。

* Sarah ("The Sphinx"): 面无表情，难以捉摸的新星。

* Mike ("The Loudmouth"): 话多，喜欢虚张声势的玩家。

* Dealer: 发牌员。

场景 (Scene):

一场私人高额赌局（High-stakes cash game）的最终回合。气氛紧张。

(The scene opens at a dimly lit, luxurious poker table. Chips are piled high. The final hand is down to three players: Leo, Sarah, and Mike.)

Dealer: (Smoothly) "Final betting round. The board shows: Ace of Spades, King of Hearts, Ten of Clubs, Jack of Diamonds... and the river card is... a Queen of Hearts.

(最终下注轮。公共牌是：黑桃A，红心K，梅花10，方块J... 河牌是... 红心Q。)

(The board now has a potential straight: A-K-Q-J-10. Anyone with a King or a Nine has a straight. Sarah checks. Leo looks intently at the pot.)

Mike: (Leaning forward, pushing a stack of chips) "Well, look at that! The Broadway Straight is on the board! I've been waiting for this. I'm all-in!

(看那个！ Broadway顺子（A-K-Q-J-10）就在台面上！我等这一刻好久了。我全下！)

(Mike pushes his entire stack of chips into the middle. Sarah remains motionless, her face her face a mask. Leo studies Mike, then Sarah.)

Leo: (Thinking aloud) "Mike, you've been bluffing all night. You're trying to buy the pot because you think that Queen scared us. But a paired board? Someone could have a full house.

(Mike，你整晚都在诈唬。你想吓走我们，拿下底池，就因为你觉得那张Q吓到我们了。但牌面有对子了？可能有人已经成了葫芦。)

Sarah: (Quietly, without looking up) "I call.

(我跟。)

(She effortlessly matches Mike's bet. All eyes turn to Leo.)

Leo: (Sighs, flicking the edge of his cards) "You're a tough read, Sarah. A real 'poker face'. But I have to believe my hand is good. I call as well.

(你真难读，Sarah。真正的"扑克脸"。但我必须相信我的牌。我也跟。)

(The tension is palpable.)

Mike: (Grinning triumphantly) "Read 'em and weep! I've got the nuts! The King-Nine! The stone-cold nuts! No one can beat a straight to the King!

(亮牌认输吧！我拿到坚果牌了！K-9！绝对的坚果！没人能打败K大的顺子！)

(Mike slams his King and Nine onto the table. He starts reaching for the massive pot.)

Leo: (Shakes his head, showing his cards) "Not so fast, Mike. Two Kings. I have a set of Kings. But on this board... it's no good against your straight. Well played.

(别急，Mike。一对K。我是三条K。但在这种牌面上... 打不过你的顺子。打得好。)

(Mike's grin widens. He looks at Sarah, expecting her to muck her cards.)

Sarah: (In a calm, steady voice) "A straight to the King is strong...

(K大的顺子是很强...)

(She pauses, letting the silence hang.)

Sarah: "...But it loses to a straight to the Ace.

(...但它输给A大的顺子。)

(Slowly, deliberately, she turns over her cards: the Ace of Clubs and the lowly Nine of Spades. She has an Ace-high straight, the "Broadway", which beats Mike's King-high straight.)

Mike: (Face falls) "No... you slow-played Ace-Rag? You checked the nuts on the turn?!

(不... 你用A带一张烂牌慢打？你在转牌圈拿着坚果牌过牌？！)

Sarah: (Allows a faint smile) "Poker isn't about the cards you're dealt. It's about the story you tell. And you, Mike, played your part perfectly.

(扑克不在于你拿到什么牌。而在于你讲的故事。而你，Mike，完美地扮演了你的角色。)

(The dealer pushes the enormous pile of chips to Sarah. Mike sinks back into his chair, stunned. Leo gives a slight nod of respect to Sarah.)

Leo: (To Sarah) "A brilliant trap. You read the table, you read him... and you and you never flinched. That, my dear, is how you win a 'Poker Storm'.

(一个精彩的陷阱。你读懂了牌桌，读懂了他... 而且你从未动摇。亲爱的，这才是掀起"扑克风云"的方式。)

(Sarah quietly stacks her chips, the calm center of the storm she just created.)
