On luck, from my hopefully, soon to be published book: The "JOKE-
TIONARY of POKER"
Luck: 1. A poker player's best friend or worst enemy.
2. Something that belongs in the same category as Santa
Claus, Frosty the Snowman, the
Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny.
3. When bankroll meets opportunity.
4. An enduring, maddening, mystery.
5. I broke a mirror last week. I'm supposed to get seven
years bad luck. My lawyer thinks he
can get me five.
6. Q: What do you get when you cross poison ivy with a four-
leaf clover?
7. I don't need to exercise. I get enough just pushing my
luck.
8. It's bad luck to be superstitious.
9. Q: Why did the poker player iron a four-leaf-clover?
10. The only explanation for the success of people we hate.
11. The thing that draws us for jury duty, but never for
the lottery.
12. What happens when preparation meets opportunity?
13. A black and white cat crossed my path this morning, and
since then my luck has been patchy.
14. A lazy man's estimate of a worker's success.
15. Luck often wins out over science and technology!
16. He's so unlucky that last week his swimming pool burned
down.
17. He's so unlucky that last week his artificial flower died.
18. Luck: The residue of design.
19. It is bad luck to be superstitious.
20. My luck is so bad that if I bought a cemetery, people
would stop dying.
21. A man on a date wonders if he'll get lucky. The woman
already knows.
An optometrist told his patient: "It appears your vision is
improving!"
"Really?" replied the patient. "Must be the luck of the iris."
"Luck: The only real protection bad players have against good ones."

A: A rash of good luck.
A: Because he wanted to press his luck.
