Tokyo, 1934. Gang boss Arakawa is too iIl and a successor must be named. The choice falIs on Nakai, but being an outsider he refuses and suggests senior clansman Matsuda instead. But Matsuda is in jail and the eIders won’t wait for his reIease, so they appoint the younger and more malleable lshido to take the reins. Clan honour and Ioyalties are severely tested when Matsuda is released, resulting in an increasingly violent internaI strife. An atmospheric tale of gangland intrigue written by Kazuo Kasahara (Battles Without Honour and Humanity) and starring Tomisaburo Wakayama, (Lone WoIf and Cub, The Bounty Hunter Trilogy) and genre Iegend Koji Tsuruta, Big Time Gambling Boss is one of the aII-time cIassics of the yakuza genre.
