Isabela had smiled when the man had sat in front of her, and even if she was fairly certain he had caught on her cheating game, that smile hadn't faltered. His own skills made the game a better challenge, and the pirate wasn't one to turn it down. Her earnings gained and lessened with time, but wasn't much different from what she held from the start, though she couldn't yet say if it as because of the new comers generosity, or simply because Lady Luck was on her side that night.
The brunette had also noticed that the man's game was more aggressive when it came to one of the native sitting with them. She cared little for the reason of the feud, but it was entertaining to see the native getting caught in all the man's bluffs and key plays.
The cards in her hand were not that good, and there was no doubts in her mind that her hand would be on the losing side. But the coin pile of the native was growing smaller by the minute, and Isabela was starting to get bored with the cards, and more interested in the man sitting opposite to her. Leaning forward with a coy smile, she reached for her earnings:
"I'll raise you five gold coins," she said as she threw the amount into the pile, knowing that their third player would have to go all in with a hand that was probably not worth it. Her purse might be lighter by the end of the game, but if she could just get to know the handsome fellow that joined their game, it would be worth it. And if not, there was always other ways to fatten her purse.
