The talented gambling artist, Cheung (齊歡暢) ([[Bobby Au Yeung]]), entered a worldwide card playing tournament when he was 18 years old and was regarded as the favorite to win. However, due to the follies of youth, Cheung was seduced by Yan (藍小茵) ([[Florence Kwok]]), who was Chor’s (喬正初) ([[Michael Miu]]’s) girlfriend, Chor being the other competitor. Due to the distraction, Cheung also became separated from his 3 year old younger brother, Lok (齊歡樂) ([[Bosco Wong]]). In the finals tournament, Cheung could not concentrate on his game and forfeited the competition. Ever since then, Cheung was someone with forever bad luck. His life has been turned up-side down. He became a gambling addict.

Chor works as the casino's CEO, Wing as the commissioner of the bodyguards, while Cheung works as the caretaker for the garden.
One night, Li Ching-Wan ([[Jessica Hsuan]]) gambles at the casino. Chor and Cheung bets whether Wan will leave the place. Cheung loses the bet and must return to Hong Kong to start a new life. On the flight, Cheung is surprised to see Wan on the plane. Wan is being chased by loan sharks and she sells her phone to Cheung. Once they arrive, Cheung asks Wan to bring him to [[Mong Kok]], where he lived before he left. At Mong Kok, Wan steals all of Chueng's money to pay off her debts, repaying him by letting him rent out the apartment next door, also owned by Wan. Inside the apartment, Cheung finds several bags of junk and Cheung Lor-Fu ([[Bosco Wong]]), a 23-year-old man, who is afraid of the outside world.


One night, Wan (李青雲) ([[Jessica Hsuan]]) stays at the casino, trying to win money. She stays at the casino for days, without sleeping. She become the gamble for Chor and Cheung. (Cheung needs to go back to Hong Kong to visit his parents, but he's scared for he lost his brother and feels too ashamed to face them). The gamble is that Chor thinks Wan will leave the casino, but Cheung thinks otherwise, acknowledging the fact that Wan stays overnight. If Cheung loses, he has to go back to Hong Kong. Cheung loses and goes back to Hong Kong that day, but is surprised to see Wan on the plane. Wan is being called by loan sharks and she sells his phone to Cheung to get money. Once they arrive, Cheung asks Wan to bring him to [[Mong Kok]], where he lived before he left. At Mong Kok, Wan steals all of Chueng's money to pay off all the debts she owes, repaying him by letting him rent out the apartment next door, owned by Wan. Inside the apartment, Cheung finds several bags of garbage and junk, and Cheung Lai Fu (張來富), a 23-year-old guy, who is afraid of the outside world, refusing to go outside alone, let alone him leave his blanket. Wan takes care of him because her grand-aunt told her so before she died.
Through fateful events, Cheung finds out that Fu is his missing brother. Cheung, finding his brother a social outcast, encourages him to become more open. However, Fu is scared and runs away bring him to meet Chor. Chor teaches him that if he doesn't want to be stared at, stare back. Chor soon becomes Fu's idol after gaining trust and confidence from his mentor. Chor informs Cheung that Fu is staying at the casino residence and Chor returns to the Philippines. One day Cheung asks Wan to take care of Fu; but unfortunately, Wan and her friend take Fu to the casino floor, and they find out that Fu has the uncanny ability to memorize all the 52 cards and their position, just by watching the dealer shuffle.


Through fateful events, Cheung finds out that Fu is his brother and he was kicked around like a ball, sold to [[United States|America]], then [[China]], and he was severely wounded in the shoulder by a blade his "master" was wielding for unable to obtain money when Fu was out as a beggar. Cheung, finding his brother a social outcast, encourages him to become more open. Fu is scared and runs away. Fatefully, he meets Chor, and Chor gives him a makeover, so Fu can look decent. Chor teaches him that if you don't want to be stared at, stare at the person who is glaring at you, and demonstrates by making a couple leave just by staring at them. Chor soon becomes Fu's idol. Chor informs Cheung that Fu is at his residence and Fu goes back home.
Chor and Wan fall in love with one another. To protect Wan, Chor tells her a white lie and breaks up with her. He later realises he still loves her very much and tries to force a kiss onto her outside her place. Wan realises a cut on his hand and tries to help him. Chor tells Wan that she knows who she loves. Wan tries to deny everything, but Chor forces her to kiss him. He brings her back to Onisac's hotel and they have sex.


Cheung is busy, and asks Wan to take care of Fu. But unfortunately, Wan and her friend take Fu to a gambling den, and they find out that Fu has the uncanny ability to memorize all the 52 cards' order, just by watching the dealer shuffle. Soon, everyone becomes entangled with personal problems: Cheung trying to lead Fu in the right way and getting his "good luck" back. Chor cheats in a gamble, which is being taped. He has to conform to bad people by secretly stealing Onisac's money, soon being consumed by greed. Wan, deciding who to fall in love with: Cheung or Chor.
