Found this quote by Lou Krieger that I found interesting:

"Hold'em - like life itself - has its defining moment.  It's the flop.  When you see the flop, you're looking at 71 percent of your hand, and the cost is only a single round of betting."

Answer 4

well i`d play you at poker friend-lol

Answer 5

yes, life is like a game poker except there is no rebuy, so you have to really pick your battle.  Needless to say that move all-in with 72os is just stupid regardless of the situation.  

Bluff (lies) may work once or twice, but most of the time you need to have a real hand (skill) in order to play poker. (survive in this world)

Good Luck!

Answer 6

In the poker game of life, women are the rake, man.  They're the f**king rake!

Answer 7

I like strip poker.

Answer 8

Yep definitely.  You need to know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em.  As the song says.

Answer 9

Aces and Eights

Answer 10

When do you "play that card" in poker? Are you sure you're not talking about snap?

Answer 11

anything can be a metaphor for life.

However, I don't think poker is a good one. In life, if you work hard, you will succeed. In poker, you can be the best player at the table yet get donked on the river by 72, and you can't call the cops or sue them.
