GAMBLING QUOTES
.
No horse can go as fast as the money you put on it.- Earl Wilson
.
All gaming, since it implies a desire to profit at the expense of another, involves a breach of the tenth commandment.
- Archbishop Richard Whately
.
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
.
The game [of poker] exemplifies the worst aspects of capitalism that have made our country so great.
- Walter Matthau
.
I figure you have the same chance of winning the lottery whether you play or not.
- Fran Lebowitz
.
You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away, know when to run.
- Kenny Rogers
