wealthiest of the wealthy, it's not athletic prowess or book smarts that keep
you ahead. It's reading your opponent, the art of the deal. What better way to
hone those skills than with a rigorous curriculum of gambling? At Hyakkaou
Private Academy, the winners live like kings, and the losers are put through
the wringer. But when Yumeko Jabami enrolls, she's gonna teach these kids what
a high roller really looks like!
