■ Primary Axis
- Entry: Can risk become identity rather than a means to profit?
Reason: The protagonist does not gamble only to win money, but to maintain the state of being alive through pressure.
Related Film: The Gambler - Middle: Can a person escape debt while using the same compulsion that created it?
Reason: Each solution repeats the original destructive logic and expands the trap.
Related Film: Owning Mahowny - Core: Does victory lose its meaning when the self cannot stop escalating?
Reason: The highest win does not produce liberation because the structure of compulsion has already consumed the life around it.

■ Secondary Axes
- Crisis Acceleration: Every attempt to regain control creates a faster collapse.
