Occurs at The Poker Room while Lucky!

Notes

• Since you've already seen where at least four of the cards from the deck are, the odds of the card being the ace of spades were a bit better than 1:52. Unless there were more cards in the deck to begin with.
• The meat goes into your pocket, not to charity, when under Way of the Surprising Fist.
