Around the table, all would sit;
Each one fills his regular place
Sighs and enthusiasm control the players.
Anticipation is the aura.
Fear and hope are the spirit.
Risking all is easy
In the poker game of life.
Taking all is also the desired end
Though loss is expected.
Satisfaction is far from being an ambition
The dexterous slyly assert:
The jackpot or not.
Each one ponders the possibilities and assesses his lot.
The acceptance of loss is dour
Yet, the anticipation period is exceedingly sour.
Each coup revives desires
At the end, the jackpot goes to the patient player.
