The Card Shack

A little shady joint just up the street from the AMF airbase. It is owned by Morane (as are all locations in the city outside of the AMF's jurisdiction) but is managed by Maxwell Graham (who also hosts and acts as the dealer for all major Poker games.) There is a lobby with a small bar, and a game room down the hall. The game room isn't much larger than the lobby but it seems to be able to accommodate large crowds of people whenever a game is in session. Towards the back wall of the game room is an old stairwell that leads up to Maxwell's office. There are no restrooms located on the property therefore patrons are forced to leave when they need a bathroom break, or they can do what everyone else seems to do and use the back and sides of the building as a toilet. Maxwell isn't even aware of this until Victoria later brings it up during a private chat session.

Since the place is located near the military base it sees a lot of activity from the soldiers and other personnel looking to get a quick drink or watch a game. People of the AMF seldom participate in any of the games, mostly because they know they are rigged.

Enrique Alveras works as the only bartender in the joint, until he later quits after Victoria Thompson gives him a raise in the form of blood money (In Atlantech Days of Darkness.) Enrique is still currently missing as the story stands, but Victoria has recruited Stan Winston's help in finding and possibly getting him back.
