A man addicted to gambling loses his job and leaves his family. He lives at a 24-hour open sauna away from debt collectors, while borrowing money left and right to keep his habit going. When he finally gets the upper hand at a poker game, a police raid spoils his good fortune. He sees a driver sleeping in a truck with his wallet hanging out of his pocket. Struggling to keep his 'moral integrity', the man kills himself rather than commit the robbery.
