Default you gotta know when to fold'em

you gotta know when to fold'em

I'm out

You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em.
Know when to walk away, know when to run
You never count your money, when you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin', when the dealin's done.



Thanks for looking

beachcomber

I love the action, I feel like I'm about to get hit by your crappy hand

Steve, yet another inspirational shot mate, I only wish I had your creativity & skill.

Amazing how the cards stayed in perfect focus.

Expertly done.

Great shot and a great quote from a great song. Though I was always partial to Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town

Another nice piece of trickery Steve, or was it. Oh well, you'd better not tell I love it buddy and I can't wait till you get back on the beach and get the one with the fish jumping onto the end of your line. lol.. Well done mate, another great shot.

Dave.

Well, now there's ecclectic musical taste! Kenny Rogers made it across the pond? Given the suspense element in cards, these--suspended in air--fits the nature of the game. Folding? Holding? Walking away? What's the word for a photo like this? Oh, yea...brilliant.

I always add an expletive when I toss in a skinny hand .. I used one when I opened this, but it was expressed in a very different manner .. unique and so well presented
