A talented card player, Chai Foon Cheung, entered a worldwide poker tournament when he was 18 years old and was regarded as a favorite. However, due to the follies of youth, Cheung was seduced by Lam Siu Yan, who was his rival competitor, Kiu Ching Chor's girlfriend. Due to the distraction, Cheung also became separated from his three-year-old younger brother. In the final tournament, Cheung could not concentrate on his game and forfeited the competition. Since then, Cheung's life has turned upside down, and he became a gambling addict in the Philippines. Fate decided that Cheung was able to bring his life back up and become good friends with him, being united by Chow Fook Wing. Cheung works as a gardener at the Onisac casino and discovers that Chor is the casino's CEO. (Source: Wikipedia) Edit Translation

REWATCHED AFTER 14 YEARS STILL IMPRESSED

So I watched this as a kid with my parents, and vaguely remember it was good, and the acting was great, but after rewatching it again after 14 years with a sibling, I'm even more impressed that the story holds the test of time!

Such an interesting Psychological, Life Drama. The characters are SO COMPLEX! All of them!
Bosco Wong is INCREDIBLE as a depressed kid with major social anxiety, and trauma, to see his character grow is so heartwarming and satisfying to watch!

The complicated relationships between all the characters in the latter half are so gripping, the only downside is that it can feel a bit slow at the time and FRUSTRATING because the EVIL SIDE keeps winning, but it's WORTH THE WATCH either way.

Benz Hui plays one of my favorite characters here as a loyal bromance mediator!

To summarize Dicey Business is:
HILARIOUS, TOUCHING, ADDICTIVE, and the card games are SO INTERESTING! The cast is PERFECTION!
