Dead Right / The Switch / Cutting Cards

A gold digging waitress goes to a fortune teller who predicts that by the end of the day her boss will fire her and she will land a new job. When the prediction becomes reality, she goes back for more. The fortune teller predicts that she will marry a man who will inherit a fortune then die. She gets the money first and when she tells her husband to kiss off, he stabs her to death and ends up in the hot seat. An elderly millionaire asks a plastic surgeon to give him the body of a younger man to win the girl of his dreams. Two rival long time gamblers meet up in a small town to have one last duel.
