He pulled the chain and smiled as her finger caught it. Elias reset the chain, switching which hand he began with, as he talked to Elirea, making comments about how the odds are in her favor, how she's already won two out of the three preliminary rounds, so-on-and-so-forth. Elias finished the loop and placed his finger on the chain where he would pull. He looked at the audience, who had begun placing wagers on whether or not she could get it right three times in a row.
"How lucky do you feel, my friend?" he asked.
Elias had a plan for whether she won or lost this round, though he was hoping it was the latter. Either way he would offer her a double-or-nothing round, and do everything he could to ensure she would win the final round. Once she left a winner, other suckers would come up, and Elias would make plenty of money for the Society.
