Bad Beat

Synopsis

Lee Yeonjun is burdened with profound guilt, watching his older brother, Lee Yeono, sacrifice everything to support him due to his frail health. Desperate to free Yeono from this lifelong obligation, Yeonjun intentionally pushes his brother away with harsh words and sets out for Las Vegas. His goal is to survive on his own terms by fulfilling a lifelong dream: defeating Dius, the undisputed king of Texas Hold 'em poker, and securing the astronomical prize money. However, Yeonjun's grand plan for independence takes a horrific turn on his very first night in the city of sin. While navigating the neon-lit streets, he accidentally stumbles into a dark alleyway and witnesses the brutal murder of a mysterious man named Anapa. Suddenly, Yeonjun's desperate quest for financial freedom transforms into a dangerous game of survival, where the stakes are far higher than any poker tournament he could ever play.
