[This post is part of my series on Mike McDermott quotes from the movie Rounders]

“Listen. Here’s the thing. If you can’t spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, then you are the sucker.”

Easy games. Tough games. Home games. Casino games. Crooked games. Straight games. Every game has at least one sucker at the table. Even the High Stakes Poker television show has a sucker at the table in every episode.

To play profitably, you have to know who you can beat at the table. And who you can’t beat.
