| Poker Quotes |
| "It never hurts for potential opponents to think you’re more than a little stupid and can hardly count all the money in your hip pocket, much less hold on to it." - Amarillo Slim "Nobody is always a winner, and anybody who says he is, is either a liar or doesn't play poker." - Amarillo Slim "I never go looking for a sucker. I look for a Champion and make a sucker of of him." - Amarillo Slim "Poker may be a branch of psychological warfare, an art form or indeed a way of life – but it is also merely a game, in which money is simply the means of keeping score." - Anthony Holden "Whether he likes it or not, a man’s character is stripped at the poker table; if the other players read him better than he does, he has only himself to blame. Unless he is both able and prepared to see himself as others do, flaws and all, he will be a loser in cards, as in life." - Anthony Holden "The guy who invented poker was bright, but the guy who invented the chip was a genius." - Big Julie "You cannot survive without that intangible quality we call heart. The mark of a top player is not how much he wins when he is winning but how he handles his losses. If you win for thirty days in a row, that makes no difference if on the thirty-first you have a bad night, go crazy, and throw it all away." - Bobby Baldwin "Cards are war, in disguise of a sport." - Charles Lamb "Poker is... a fascinating, wonderful, intricate adventure on the high seas of human nature." - David A Daniel "The poker player learns that sometimes both science and common sense are wrong; that the bumblebee can fly; that, perhaps, one should never trust an expert; that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of by those with an academic bent." - David Mamet "When we play, we must realize, before anything else, that we are out to make money." - David Sklansky "How long does it take to learn poker, Dad? All your life, son." - David Spanier "Poker is alot like sex, everyone thinks they are the best, but most don't have a clue what they are doing!" - Dutch Boyd "The commonest mistake in history is underestimating your opponent; happens at the poker table all the time." - General David Shoup "I've often thought, if I got really hungry for a good milk shake, how much would I pay for one? People will pay a hundred dollars for a bottle of wine; to me that's not worth it. But I'm not going to say it is foolish or wrong to spend that kind of money, if that's what you want. So if a guy wants to bet twenty or thirty thousand dollars in a poker game, that is his privilege." - Jack Binion "Limit poker is a science, but no-limit is an art. In limit, you are shooting at a target. In no-limit, the target comes alive and shoots back at you." - Jack Strauss "There is a very easy way to return from a casino with a small fortune: go there with a large one." - Jack Yelton "Poker is a combination of luck and skill. People think mastering the skill part is hard, but they're wrong. The trick to poker is mastering the luck." - Jesse May "If you play bridge badly you make your partner suffer, but if you play poker badly you make everybody happy." - Joe Laurie Jr "Hold em is to stud what chess is to checkers." - Johnny Moss "I must complain the cards are ill shuffled till I have a good hand." - Jonathan Swift "The cardinal sin in poker, worse than playing did cards, worse even than figuring your odds incorrectly, is becoming emotionally involved." - Katy Lederer "Poker is a microcosm of all we admire and disdain about capitalism and democracy. It can be rough-hewn or polished, warm or cold, charitable and caring, or hard and impersonal, fickle and elusive, but ultimately it is fair, and right, and just." - Lou Krieger "Most of the money you'll win at poker comes not from the brilliance of your own play, but from the ineptitude of your opponents." - Lou Krieger "I believe in poker the way I believe in the American Dream. Poker is good for you. It enriches the soul, sharpens the intellect, heals the spirit, and - when played well, nourishes the wallet." - Lou Krieger "Hold'em - like life itself - has its defining moment. It's the flop. When you see the flop, you're looking at 71 percent of your hand, and the cost is only a single round of betting." - Lou Krieger "You have it in your power to turn a bad-beat around simply by realizing this simple truth: The more bad beats you encounter, the luckier you are. It's a sign that you are playing against opponents who continually take the worst of it, and if you can't beat someone who always takes the worst of it, you can't beat anyone." - Lou Krieger "There's opportunity in poker.... If Horace Greeley were alive today, his advice wouldn't be "Go West, young man, and grow up with the country." Instead, he'd point to that deck of cards on table and say, Shuffle up and deal." - Lou Krieger "There are few things that are so unpardonably neglected in our country as poker. The upper class knows very little about it. Now and then you find ambassadors who have sort of a general knowledge of the game, but the ignorance of the people is fearful. Why, I have known clergymen, good men, kind-hearted, liberal, sincere, and all that, who did not know the meaning of a "flush". It is enough to make one ashamed of the species." - Mark Twain "People would be surprised to know how much I learned about prayer from playing poker." - Mary Austin "It is better to make people think you are a bad poker player, then to play and remove all doubt. Don't play to impress, play to win." - Michael Gersitz "Don't get mad that you lost, get mad because you didn't win." - Michael Gersitz "Aces are larger than life and greater than mountains." - Mike Caro "A dollar won is twice as sweet as a dollar earned" - Paul Newman "No matter how much you may want to think of Holdém as a card game played by people, in many respects it is even more valid to think of it as a game about people that happens to be played with cards." - Phil Hellmuth "Is it a reasonable thing, I ask you, for a grown man to run about and hit a ball? Poker's the only game fit for a grown man. Then, your hand is against every man's, and every man's is against yours. Teamwork? Who ever made a fortune by teamwork? There's only one way to make a fortune, and that's to down the fellow who's up against you." - Somerset Maugham "Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died." - Steven Wright "It's hard work. Gambling. Playing poker. Don't let anyone tell you different. Think about what it's like sitting at a poker table with people whose only goal is to cut your throat, take your money, and leave you out back talking to yourself about what went wrong inside. That probably sounds harsh. But that's the way it is at the poker table. If you don't believe me, then you're the lamb that's going off to the slaughter." - Stu Unger "See, in my world - the world of high-stakes gin and poker - we play for cold, hard cash. It's all business, pure and simple. Anyone who thinks cardplaying is a 'game' - I'll show you a loser. Money... M-O-N-E-Y. That's how you measure success. One dollar at a time. One chip at a time. That's how you keep score." - Stu Unger "Really Bad Players Joining Daily. Come Win Some of Their Money." - Superior Poker ad "If, after the first twenty minutes, you don't know who the sucker at the table is, it's you." - Unknown "If you are the 10th best player in the world you are still gonna lose if you are sitting amongst the nine best players." - Unknown "Luck never gives; it only lends." - Unknown "Lottery: A tax on people who are bad at math." - Unknown "Your best chance to get a Royal Flush in a casino is in the bathroom." - VP Pappy "The game exemplifies the worst aspects of capitalism that have made our country so great." - Walter Matthau "Ace is not good, Ace is God." - William Wigstrom |
