3 act structure rewrite

Title: The Bet

Logline: Three legendary poker players put money in the pot, but only one can win.

Act 1: Three legendary poker players, Billy Bob, John Johnson, and Dwayne the Rock, meet in the middle of nowhere and sit down at a conveniently placed table to play poker.

Act 2: Cards are dealt, and the game begins. After a few rounds with minor betting, Dwayne the Rock, feeling confident, puts all his money in the pot. Equally confident, Billy and John match.

Act 3: Tensions are high. Once all the cards are dealt, they show their cards one by one. First Billy shows, followed by John and finally Dwayne. Billy Bob has won!!! However, before he can respond, Dwayne the Rock reaches out, grabs the money, and runs away faster than either Billy or John can chase. The other two are left in the middle of nowhere.

The End!
