- Synopsis:
To say factory worker and fly-by-night Jimmy Harper (Gary Webster) loves a little flutter is like saying a piranha enjoys a nibble. So when he receives an 'open sesame' to a clandestine big bucks game with the big boys he can't resist - not that he has any inclination to. Trouble is, these guys are players. And since fate has never dealt Jimmy much of a hand, a touch of identity embellishment is called for. As James Harper, international stockbroker, man about town and gambling ace, Jimmy becomes a new man who can cut the mustard and the cards. He enters the game confident that he has everything to gain. But there's more to this game than meets the eye; something that makes the men lie to their loved ones; something driving them to keep it secret at all costs...As the stakes get higher and higher Jimmy's confidence wanes, and he realises he has everything to lose: his money, the girl he loves...his life... - Actors:
