Of Kings and Aces by ClaireMonday2468

What does it take to change the course of a person's life? One small, seemingly trivial decision. For Jacob, it was when he decided to play a game of poker in a new city he was supposed to call home for the next few years. But he was at the wrong place, at the wrong time. For Ace, it was when he drove to a different city in the middle of the night to collect an employee from a police station. A man he believed he's never even met but whose eyes had already imprinted on him a few nights prior. Two people, brought together by simple decisions that rippled and entwined them. Two decisions that landed them as indispensable pieces in a wild game of chess against each other. One night. One game. One web of deception that led to a series of life-changing lethal events. One goal: to protect their king. ♤♡♧♢

The House That Whispers by beingillusionist

It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That Whispers

The Silver Wheel Game 1: The Fall by GlibberLiver

There is a place between sleep and dreams where fortunes fly at the whims of the dice. Where people from all walks of life can gamble for more than just money; they can wager their talents, their health, their family... so long as they own it, they can put it on the table for the chance to win the impossible. Where unwitting guests can have their luck and their cunning tested in games where the winner takes all. For time immemorial, the Silver Wheel Gambling House has run by these rules, giving people the opportunity to experience the greatest thrill or the deepest despair. But everything would change one fateful night, when the casino becomes host to an unusual - and diabolical - guest. A guest who raises the stakes forever. The first of a three-part series.

The Illusions of control by OctaviaBirthfield

The Illusion of Control: A Description The illusion of control is a psychological phenomenon where individuals believe they have more influence over events and outcomes than they actually do. This cognitive bias often leads people to overestimate their ability to manage situations, particularly in contexts characterized by uncertainty or randomness, such as gambling, investing, or personal relationships. At its core, the illusion of control manifests when individuals attribute successes to their own actions or decisions while downplaying the role of chance or external factors. For example, a gambler might believe that their strategy or intuition can sway the outcome of a game, despite the inherent randomness involved. Similarly, in everyday life, someone may feel that their meticulous planning guarantees a successful event, overlooking the unpredictable variables that can arise. This illusion can provide a comforting sense of agency and empowerment, allowing individuals to navigate life's complexities with a greater sense of confidence. However, it can also lead to overconfidence, reckless decision-making, and frustration when faced with outcomes that defy expectations. Recognizing the limitations of one's control can be crucial for making informed choices and accepting the uncertainties inherent in life. In essence, the illusion of control highlights the delicate balance between our desire for agency and the reality of unpredictability, urging us to reflect on the factors that truly shape our experiences.
