One Eyed Jacks And Other Urban Legends

The day you go to Vegas… it ain’t no game
The day you go to Atlantic City… it ain’t no game.

Not anymore.

Here the House wins.

You’re not in the den or the kitchen or the garage.
(Don’t forget to tip your waitress)

Here, EVERYONE plays for keeps
But the House never loses.

Don’t try to cheat,
Don’t count the cards…

You will be allowed to win
When the House so chooses.

Studs and flushes?
Sure, they’re here.

But get ready to
Go home alone.

And play solitaire.

‘Cause the House makes the rules.

And the House never loses.
