An exciting and meritorious offering

A Civil War story which involves the gambling mania of that period, on the Ohio and Mississippi steamboats, where poker was the popular game. Few people understand the fascinating chances and the irresistible power of the turn of the single card which may eventuate in the loss of all worldly possessions of the player. Old timers will appreciate this offering as it goes back to the days of '61. An exciting and meritorious offering with a pleasant ending. - The Moving Picture World, July 4, 1914
