Mine is what a use at work.
I work for a very large global corporation in a Tech position. Our upper management adopted sending out team e-mails with these deep meaningful platitudes/quotes at their signature which barely related to the message they would be trying to communicate. Basically they were using a cache of these quotes at the end of their messages to Camouflage their obtuse point. These things would make us roll our eyes and gag. I decided to add mine as a rebut to their garbage.

Mine is just from the movie, I thought it was appropriate. During that scene, Luke is heads up and bluffs the other guy out of the pot and then shows a hand of nothing....

and then he says :arrow:

My current quote came from my boss. I thought it rather fitting to poker.

My other quote "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits" flew out of my mouth during a home game. I'm sure that I heard it somewhere else, but it was a real hit at the table (except for the person that I said it to, who had just called me a genius in a very sarcastic tone). Of course I was counting his chips that he'd lost in the last pot by making a blatant bluff that I called, so that probably wasn't nice of me. Witty, but not nice. But hey, I never claimed to be a nice person. :twisted:

I guess I should explain that statement. It's an inside joke with our poker group. It started when I was playing online and there was a guy in the room who was giving another player a hard time. Then he beat her pretty significantly in a hand. She then started with the tongue lashing to which he replied "hold on a sec, I'm still counting your chips". I played in a home game that night and relayed how funny I thought that was. It's been a thing with our group since.

My quote is a great poker statement, and a statement that should keep things in perspective and remind you that sure, this guy did suckout with PP Kings againts Aces, but no one is perfect, and you shouldn't whine because you've done it too! There is no luck streak that goes on forever, Aces are a 4-1 favorite over everyhand AT LEAST. That means it WILL lose on average every four times. You can't win them all, your determination will win you money however.

Wholly thread revivals batman.

Mine is from the Tennessee Cowboy James Storm. I thought it would be pretty wicked to say everytime some one wined about losing a hand.
