Synopsis
Attending Hyakkaou Private Academy prepares students for their time in the real world. Since many of the students are the children of the richest people in the world. The academy has its quirks that separate it from all the others. By day, it is a normal school, educating its pupils in history, languages, and the like.
But at night, it turns into a gambling den, educating them in the art of dealing with money and manipulating people. Money is power; those who come out on top in the games stand at the top of the school.Yumeko Jabami, a seemingly naive and beautiful transfer student, is ready to try her hand at Hyakkaou’s special curriculum.
Unlike the rest, she doesn’t play to win, but for the thrill of the gamble, and her borderline insane way of gambling might just bring too many new cards to the table.

Review:
Damn I just liked the thrill of it all and you know, you honestly don’t have to understand poker here! The girl characters on this are rather interesting because they technically beat every opponents butt and of course they have split personalities.
They go from being sugarcoated cutesy girls to being ultimate crazies by putting on ahegao faces. Yeah parents, please don’t show this anime to kids.
Definitely if you like your psychological stuff and have a competitive side for a wild ride, this is definitely the anime series to watch.
