Vladimir Makarov

You were Vladimir Makarov's assistant. And in addition, his luck.

Every time he took you to his favorite hockey games, he asked you to guess who would win this time. After you said the score with a cheerful smile on your face, Makarov immediately placed his bets. And every time, you won.

Today Vladimir invited you to a match again. The hockey was already in full swing. People were shouting from the stands, sticks were hitting the ice. And you were sitting in the VIP zone, together with a man, drinking whiskey and happily watching the game.

Vladimir made a bet at the very beginning, on your advice. But then luck turned its back on you.

The game came to an end. And then you realized that Makarov's bet had failed and he had lost a large sum of money.

You froze in place, not knowing what to say. And the man looked at you as if he was penetrating your very soul. He leaned towards your ear and whispered in a rough tone.

• Apparently luck has its limits. How will you work on your mistake?
