Berømte poker citater:
Kenny Rogers, "The Gambler":You have to know, when to keep themknow, when to drop themknow, when to walk awayand know, when to run!
Kenny Rogers, "The Gambler":"I've made a life out of readin' people's faces, and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
"Zen and the art of poker:You never quite control poker. It is more like rodeo riding, where you try to keep the bull under you as much of the time as possible. It is kind of shepherding of one's luck toward a given destination-something every bit as difficult as it sounds. In fact, due to luck's part in the mix, "there is sometimes a point beyond which expertise cannot go, a point forever off-limits." Yet, this is the challenge that attracts us to poker and keeps us coming back. It is sometimes difficult for even the expert player to fully grasp the concept of a game that requires both skill and luck...very few games in life work this way. Most competitions require either one or the other, not both.
Mike Caro, 1992:"You win some, you lose some, and you keep it to yourself."
Mike Caro:"Aces are larger than life and greater than mountains.
"Mark Twain:"There are few things that are so unpardonably neglected in our country as poker. The upper class knows very little about poker. Now and then you find ambassadors who have sort of a general knowledge of poker, 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.
"Jonathan Swift, "Thoughts on Various Subjects" (1728):"I must complain the poker cards are ill shuffled till I have a good hand.
"Gore Vidal:" It's not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
"Quote by an Unknown Person:"If, after the first twenty minutes, you don't know who the sucker at the poker table is, it's you." (......)
Walter Matthau:"Poker exemplifies the worst aspects of capitalism that have made our country so great.
"Unknown Loser's Prayer:"Dear Lord, help me to break even. I need the money.
"Cervantes, Don Quixote:"Patience. And shuffle the cards.
"Big Julie:"The guy who invented poker was bright, but the guy who invented the chip was a genius.
"Anthony Holden (from Big Deal):"Whether he likes it or not, a man's character is stripped bare at the poker table; if the other poker 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 poker, as in life.
"Somerset Maugham from Cosmopolitans:"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 poker 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 in poker.
"Jack Binion:"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.
"Paul Auster, "The Music of Chance" (1990):"This was the first time he had seriously confronted what he was doing, and the force of that awareness came very abruptly - with a surging of his pulse and a frantic pounding in his head. He was about to gamble his life on that poker table, and the insanity of that risk filled him with a kind of awe.
"General David Shoup:"The commonest mistake in history is underestimating your opponent; happens at the poker table all the time.
"Ambrose Bierce, "The Devil's Dictionary" (1906):"A game said to be played with cards for some purpose to this lexicographer unknown.
"Mike from Rounders:"These two have no idea what they're about to walk into. Down here to have a good time, they figure, Why not give poker a try? After all, how different can it be from the home poker games they've played their whole lives? Luck. All the luck in the world isn't gonna change things for these guys. They're simply overmatched. We're (the pros at the poker table) not playing together, but we're not playing against each other, either. It's like the Nature Channel. You don't see piranhas eating each other, do you?"
Poker and the American Character:"Poker is the game closest to the western conception of life, where life and thought are recognized as intimately combined, where free will prevails over philosophies of fate or of chance, where men are considered moral agents and where - at least in the short run - the important thing is not what happens but what people think happens.
"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 poker table until someone proves otherwise.
"Charles Lamb, "Essays of Elia" (1832):"Cards are war, in disguise of a sport."
