The story

Sir Giles Staverley, a compulsive gambler, is tricked into gambling away his home by his old adversary, Lord Harry Wrotham. As Staverley is distraught and desperate, Wrotham gives him one last chance―he will gamble everything Staverley has lost against Staverley's daughter's hand in marriage and her trust fund of 80,000 guineas. Desperate to recoup his losses, Staverley agrees, despite his nephew Nicholas's desperate attempt to persuade him against it.
