The story

In Monte Carlo, Paul Gaillard, an impoverished Russian exiled aristocrat, has a run of good luck, breaking the bank at the baccarat table. His winnings, ten million francs, are so vast he needs a suitcase to carry away the banknotes. The management tries to entice him to stay, placing various signs of good luck including four-leaf clovers, a horseshoe, and a hunchback in his path, to no avail.
