"A raise is your opinion that you have a better hand than your opponent."

"If George Washington never told a lie, he would have made a lousy poker player."

I don't have time to study the game right now, I'm too busy trying to break this long losing streak that I'm in."

Forget all those losing hands that cost you money, but never forget what they taught you."

"The acceptance that you aren't a very good player will be the start of your poker education."

"Loose play, lose money."

"It's your choice. You can either swim with the sharks and try not too get eaten, or you can find another ocean to swim in."

"Poker is not about life and death. It's much more serious than that."

"Sometimes when I play poker, I get the feeling that everyone’s against me."

"What fun would poker or life be if we never took a calculated chance and tried to win?"

"Poker is just a game of condiments. You have to lay off the sauce and quit playing ketchup, or you won't cut the mustard."

"In poker, it's not what cards you have, but what cards you pretend to have."

"If poker is war, then Texas Hold'em is nuclear war."
