Air power is like poker. A second-best hand is like none at all - it will cost you dough and win you nothing.
George Kenney
As for poker, I've stayed away from that, even though when I was in Vegas for Ocean's Eleven, I would get accosted by these guys begging me to play. They just want to take my money. They see me, think "actor" and see some easy money.
Matt Damon
As I stood there absorbing Hammett's novel, the slot machines at the back of the shop were clanking and whirring, and in the billiard room upstairs the perpetual poker game was being played.
Ross MacDonald
Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to quit when he's losing; nobody wants you to quit when you're ahead.
Jackie Robinson
Being able to pit your wits against literally hundreds of other people is really exciting and ultimately the biggest single challenge for a poker player.
Tim Page
But I want people to understand that poker's not all glamorous, it's not all being on TV and making tons of money. It's a hard life. It's a lot of travel. It's a lot of weird hours.
Chris Moneymaker
For the most part, I get to do what I want to do. If I want to play poker, I can. If I don't want to play poker, I don't have to.
Chris Moneymaker
I am very driven. I work really hard, whether it's acting or my charity or even poker. When I focus on something I give it my all.
Shannon Elizabeth
I can never have a poker face. Anybody looking at me can tell exactly what I'm thinking.
Gena Rowlands
I completely take on the risk, the poker game, which being an artist means, and I'm going to try to make a film which honestly reflects what I have in my head.
Antonio Banderas
I could think of worse ways of going than at the poker table.
Al Alvarez
I think one of the interesting things about poker is that once you let your ego in, you're done for.
Al Alvarez
I used to sports gamble a lot and I was getting killed on that but then I found poker and really enjoyed it. But it was a hobby more than anything else. I played it every day but only on pretty small stakes.
Chris Moneymaker
I'm absolutely gonna win it, because I'm ruthless. I sit at the poker table and my job is to destroy people.
James Woods
I'm the first person in my family to play poker.
Chris Moneymaker
I've been playing Texas Hold 'em and other forms of poker since I was about 12.
Richard Roeper
If scientific reasoning were limited to the logical processes of arithmetic, we should not get very far in our understanding of the physical world. One might as well attempt to grasp the game of poker entirely by the use of the mathematics of probability.
Vannevar Bush
If you're a poker player and you show up at a casino at 8 a.m., you're going to be by yourself or with some people that are rocks and just don't give you any action.
Chris Moneymaker
If you're playing a poker game and you look around the table and and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.
Paul Newman
Initial feedback we got from people was that Poker could and should be a product in its own right. For us, that was definitely a case of us not seeing the forest for the trees since we are Poker nuts.
