Through distinct symbolism and pernicious conflict against one's self, The Bet by Anton Chekhov depicts how manipulative greed can be a crippling trait towards impulsive young adults, sparking irrational actions.
In Anton Chekov's short story "The Bet", the conflict is between the lawyer and the banker who disagree on terms of capital punishment. While the banker thinks it is more humane than life imprisonment, the lawyer disagrees and believes that a prisoner's life is preferable to death.
