  • Robert 'Rob' Petrie: This is my magic deck.
  • Buddy Sorrell: Yeah, magic is right. You just made your friends disappear.
  • Robert 'Rob' Petrie: Why would I use marked cards to win ten dollars?

  • [Rob's been on a two-hour winning streak]
  • Robert 'Rob' Petrie: [while rapping against the table] Gimme those deuces, and gimme those treys. Gimme those aces - that's the way I plays. Just put your money right in the pot. I'll take it home, and thanks a lot.
