Rivals
Chief O'Brien gets annoyed when he learns that Doctor Bashir is better than him at racquetball. Quark feels threatened by Martus, who opens up a casino on the Promenade. Sisko and Dax discover that something is causing people to experience big swings of good and bad luck aboard the space station.
Thoughts
This episode doesn't do it for me. Nothing about it pulled me in, touched me, or gave me a reason to care. There was an attempt to explain the whole luck aspect of the episode but it felt very unscientific.
Chris Sarandon played the part of Martus. This is the only episode of this series in which he appeared. I've seen him before in Dog Day Afternoon (1975), The Princess Bride (1987), and one episode of Orange Is the New Black, 4.05 We'll Always Have Baltimore.
