*.k t * * CHAPTER 111 \"I agree with Doane,\u201d said Henderson.\"I\u2019m funny that way, bat the sight of bloodshed, or even the thought of it, turns me sick at my stomach.You gentlemen, in the police and the District Attorney\u2019s office, ard practicing criminal law, naturally take it as part of the day\u2019s work.I\u2019m going to have another drink before we get back to the business of the evening.Will you join me?\u201d Only Doane accepted, and the two drank another highball each while the others resumed their seats at the card table and Frasier began to deal.\"Sorry I started anything disagreeable, gentleman,\u201d Michaelis apologized again.\"Dan, you ought not to talk shop when you\u2019re out in company.\u201d \"I\u2019ll talk nothing but poker from now on,\u201d grunted the Inspector.\"It\u2019s a cold, dark night and I crave excitement.\u201d \"The excitement begins right now, Dan,\u201d said Max Michaelis.\"Table stakes, all jackpots, I believe?Then I\u2019ll take the lid off this one.\u201d He shoved a stack of blue chips into the middle of the table and the game was on.\"Poker isn\u2019t a game of cards; it\u2019s a game of human nature,\u201d was one of Dan Flaherty\u2019s aphorisms.After & few hands had been played he could tell more about the character of the others at the table than an ordinary man would learn by months of intimate association.With the poker technique of Martin Frazier, Archie Doane and Max Michaelis he was already sufficiently familiar to estimate almost to a two-spot the probable contents of their hands, by their expressions and manner when making their bets.Michaelis* friend, Williams, and the host of the evening, Elmer Henderson, were strangers, and the veteran detective gave his closest scrutiny to them.I < : FI iv ' V A# Yet more than W 1 s\u201e^>,r EH L v v\\ \\ XX f \\ vtA \\ I \\ < \\ m .o 111 V 1 * y \\ fes?\" m ^25?9/ m / m , I m ¦mm.dd x-,m« » iurwonul letter*!
