Mexico, Mexico City, Caesars Palace, Gold Hall No. 1!
Donnie Block and Joe Charles sat on opposite sides of the poker table.
Crown Prince Frederick, Julian Sabrio, and Doniel Barrett sat on the other side of the table, watching the game.
The expressions of the three varied greatly.
Frederick had a purely amused look.
Julian Sabrio appeared both excited and slightly worried.
Doniel Barrett looked completely indifferent.
The two players also wore different expressions.
Donnie leaned back in his chair, with his right elbow resting on the armrest, his fingers supporting his chin!
Joe Charles sat upright, maintaining his noble demeanor even while gambling.
The two were playing Texas Hold'em!
Actually, Texas Hold'em started gaining popularity in the early 20s in Texas, but at that time, the game was mostly confined to Texas.
Later, it was introduced to the Surf Hotel in Atlantic City, quickly accepted by gamblers, and began sweeping across America, now brought to Mexico!
