Mei Xiao'ou (played by Bai Baihe), a female gambler who has experienced many hardships, navigates the gambling city of Ma Ge (Macau) while dealing with gamblers from different backgrounds. These include real estate developer Duan Kaiwen (played by Wu Gang), artist Shi Qilan (played by Huang Jue), and various politicians and businesspeople from different classes. Even her ex-husband Lu Jintong (played by Geng Le), who has long fallen to rock bottom, becomes involved again in her life. These individuals fight in and out of the casino, defaulting on debts; the life of a female gambler revolves around lending and collecting debts. Gambling makes one lose their true nature; when a gambler interacts with them, it’s like dealing with the devil—sometimes pretending to be kind and sometimes cutting ties. When the final stakes are made, who can retrieve their true nature, and who will strike it lucky?
