A wealthy gambler charms Mac


With each successive poker night, Mac's confidence ? and profits ? have grown. This week, she's set to make more money than ever when a mysterious new player arrives in Summer Bay.

Mac (Emily Weir) recently helped Nathan (Ryan Panizza) pay off a debt to loan sharks. But now, she's behind in her rent and her business is on the line.

When Nathan arrives at the next poker night, Mac refuses him entry ? he owes her money. Nathan then introduces his friend PK (Ryan Johnson), a man with means and who's good at cards.

He offers to triple the buy-in for a seat at the table.

Felicity (Jacqui Purvis) insists all players be vetted first. Plus, there's something about him that's not quite right. But Mac can see dollar signs.

"Mac observes PK is someone of status, power and importance," Emily, 30, says. "She initially doesn't warm to him and finds him arrogant, but also intriguing."

That night, PK rakes in the chips. As Mac delights in another successful event, PK ups the ante: he wants to run an exclusive poker night: one table, 10 players and a $5000 buy-in.

Suddenly, Felicity is alarmed. Is PK all he seems?
