  Your best chance to get a Royal Flush in a casino is in the bathroom.
 ~poker sayings by VP Pappy

  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.
 ~inspirational sayings about Poker quotes by Mark Twain

  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.
 ~poker quotes by Jack Binion

  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.
 ~famous quotes about Poker by David Mamet

  The commonest mistake in history is underestimating your opponent; it happens at the poker table all the time.
 ~poker sayings by David Shoup

  Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he's losing; nobody wants you to quit when you're ahead.
 ~poker sayings by Jackie Robinson

  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.
 ~inspirational sayings about Poker quotes by Anthony Holden

  Poker: the art of civilized bushwhacking.
 ~poker quotes by Nick Dandalos, attributed

  Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he's losing; nobody wants you to quit when you're ahead.
 ~famous quotes about Baseball by Jackie Robinson

  The guy who invented poker was bright, but the guy who invented the chip was a genius.
 ~poker sayings by Author Unknown

  Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.
 ~poker sayings by Seven Wright

  Industry executives and analysts often mistakenly talk about strategy as if it were some kind of chess match. But in chess, you have just two opponents, each with identical resources, and with luck playing a minimal role. The real world is much more like a poker game, with multiple players trying to make the best of whatever hand fortune has dealt them. In our industry, Bill Gates owns the table until someone proves otherwise.
 ~inspirational sayings about Computers quotes by David Moschella

  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.
 ~poker quotes by W. Somerset Maugham

  Pure mathematics is the world's best game. It is more absorbing than chess, more of a gamble than poker, and lasts longer than Monopoly. It's free. It can be played anywhere - Archimedes did it in a bathtub.
 ~famous quotes about Math by Richard J. Trudeau, Dots and Lines

  In a game of poker, I can put the players' souls in my pocket.
 ~poker sayings by Beausourire

   An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made in a very narrow field.

   The best bridge between despair and hope is a good night's sleep.
 ~good sayings about Sleep by E. Joseph Cossman

   Advertising is the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket.
 ~poker quotes by George Orwell

   To carry a grudge is like being stung to death by one bee.
 ~motivational quotes about Anger sayings by William H. Walton

   Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill.

   A poem is never finished, only abandoned.
 ~poker quotes by Paul Valery

   Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks. Historians are pessimists because they ignore the banks for the river.
 ~motivational quotes about History sayings by Will Durant

   Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.
 ~poker sayings by Buddha

   There is in every true woman’s heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity, but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.
 ~good sayings about Attitude by Elisabeth Guizot

   The only good thing about punctuality is that it usually gets you an apology.
 ~poker quotes by Author Unknown

   You have to allow a certain amount of time in which you are doing nothing in order to have things occur to you, to let your mind think.
 ~motivational quotes about Growth sayings by Mortimer Adler

   We need a type of patriotism that recognizes the virtues of those who are opposed to us. We must get away from the idea that America is to be the leader of the world in everything. She can lead in some things. The old manifest destiny idea ought to be modified so that each nation has the manifest destiny to do the best it can - and that without cant, without the assumption of self-righteousness and with a desire to learn to the uttermost from other nations.
 ~poker sayings by Francis John McConnell

   I have a wife, I have sons: all of them hostages given to fate.
 ~poker sayings by Lucan

   People find it hard to be both comic and serious, though life manages it easily enough.
 ~good sayings about Life by Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966

   I hate to be near the sea, and to hear it raging and roaring like a wild beast in its den. It puts me in mind of the everlasting efforts of the human mind, struggling to be free and ending just where it began.
 ~poker quotes by William Hazlitt

   Find the person who will love you because of your differences and
not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

   Do what we can, summer will have its flies.
 ~poker sayings by Ralph Waldo Emerson
