Not a bad story, but you lack fundamentals. Search for 12 basic rules of animation.

Camera movement is distracting

Akhila

huh???

Reginald Crumpler

Good situation, but the character speaking had no facial expressions. Especially with him having a winning hand.

Sergio Candela Ramirez

I dont like the camera choices that you made, I didnt understand anything almost until the end. But good job!!

Jez

i don't think you need those camera moves (dolly, dolly zoom, pan ...ect) Thay don't bring anything to the scene (perhaps even distract viewers)

A couple of big problems here. The first one I noticed right away was the camera. For a scene like this, you'll only want to have a maximum of two cuts and remove camera animation. The second biggest problem is your acting. The poses in the characters don't feel natural. I would recommend taking some video reference to work from.

Keep up the hard work!
