For Cord Diamondback, the luck of the draw is the luck of the damned...
JOKERS ARE WILD
For some people, poker is more than a game. It's a business... a deadly business. On a heavy New Mexico night, a card is played, wagers are made, fortunes are gambled, and a man is killed. The winner will be a millionaire. And the losers are paupers. Four people claim the pot -- no one claims a loss.
Only one man can settle the dispute. A judge whose justice is backed with his fist. A judge who knows that the law of the West is the law of survival.A judge who understands what the law books don't say -- a judgment is only as good as the man who stands behind it. Only Cord Diamondback can bring order back to the chaos of this town. Because only Cord Diamondback sees each morning for what it really is... a gamble between life and death.
