“Turn the Cards Slowly” by Patsy Cline; written by Sammy Masters (1955)
Turn the cards slowly while you’re dealin’, darlin’.
Please don’t double-deal to win my heart.
Turn the cards slowly while you're dealin’, darlin’.
Don’t go breakin’ rules right from the start.
The ramblin’ gamblin’ reckless way you treat my heart’s a sin.
Each night down on my knees I pray your gamblin’ ways will end.
Turn the cards slowly while you’re dealin’, darlin’.
And if you stack the deck, then I’ll move on.
“House of Cards Worth $220,000” by Pat Putnam, from Sports Illustrated, May 31, 1976 issue
I read excerpts from an article about the 1976 World Series of Poker Main Event. You can access the full article online in the Sports Illustrated “vault” -- an archive of all SI articles -- by clicking here.

Show notes for Episode 18:
I read a short selection from the entertaining and informative strategy text by John Fox, a book that preceded both Doyle Brunson’s Super/System and Mike Caro’s Book of Tells. Click here to read my Hard-Boiled Poker post in which I discuss the book further.
In the excerpt, Fox tells a story of how he devised a system for keeping track of statistical data at the poker table -- and how all of his careful planning was nearly spoiled in dramatic, humorous fashion.
Starring Brace Beamer (The Lone Ranger) and John Todd (Tonto). Directed by Charles D. Livingstone.
Here is the Wikipedia entry on the Lone Ranger, which includes the story of the long-running radio show. Sites with many of the episodes are available all over the web -- here is one with nearly 1,000 episodes of the show.
