The Definitive Poker Quote

"The Gambler" by Kenny Rodgers, 1978.

"You got to know when to hold em,
Know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away,
And know when to run."

It makes sense to open the blog with a classic, so why not the most famous poker quote in the world from Kenny Rogers' song The Gambler. A good fold can be as valuable as a good bet. Watch your opponents at all times to see how they act in different situations - so if they try and put you to a decision, you know whether to bet into it, or whether to run.
