Title: Just Got Lucky
Pairing: John/ Sherlock
Rating: very soft R
Warnings: Non-explicit sex and discussions of sexuality
Genre: Romance, fluff, smattering of angst
Word Count: ~7k
Summary: If you were to ask Sherlock how he ended up at the final table in a high-stakes, no-limit Texas Hold 'em tournament being filmed for broadcast on American television, he would simply wave you off and tell you it was for a case. If you were to ask John, he'd tell you it was because his flatmate was an ego-maniacal twat that would go to almost any length to prove a point.

madder_badder , who wanted to see Sherlock and John on vacation. This what fell out instead. A working knowledge of poker, specifically Texas Hold 'em, might make this fic easier to read in places. A good primer, along with a glossary of poker terms, can be found here. The title is from the song of the same name, by JoBoxers.
Many thanks to my quick and skilful betas, blue_eyed_1987 and mazarin221b .
