As for poker, I've stayed away from that, even though when I was in Vegas for Ocean's Eleven, I would get accosted by these guys begging me to play. They just want to take my money. They see me, think 'actor' and see some easy money.

If you spend a week at a casino you will very easily see that people have a certain way of behaving in a casino.

I'm not like a poker player. I'm not into bluff. My way is to look someone in the eye and tell them the way I'm intending to go. My cards are always on the table.

I think one of the interesting things about poker is that once you let your ego in, you're done for.

If you're playing a poker game and you look around the table and and can't tell who the sucker is, it's you.

But I want people to understand that poker's not all glamorous, it's not all being on TV and making tons of money. It's a hard life. It's a lot of travel. It's a lot of weird hours.

One of the downsides of being a poker pro is that people see exactly how you play.

Poker is a skill game pretending to be a chance game.

Poker is a charismatic game. People who are larger than life play poker and make their living from playing games and hustling.

Poker is just a hobby I'm passionate about. It's not supposed to bring glory.
