I HAVE HAD DEALINGS WITH GAMBLERS IN MY WORKING LIFE AS A CAB DRIVER FOR MORE THAN 35 YEARS, AND I HAVE OBSERVED HOW THEY BECOME OBSESSED BY WINNING, TO THE EXTENT, THAT EVEN THE MONEY INVOLVED HAS NO REAL RELEVANCE, ITS THE WINNING THAT MEANS EVERYTHING. PLAYING CARDS HAVE A LONG HISTORY, AND WHAT THE ENGLISH SPEAKING WORLD USES TO PLAY VARIOUS GAMES, POKER ETC..ARE NOT THE SAME AS CARDS USED IN OTHER COUNTRIES, HISPANIC, FOR EXAMPLE.
