I'm all in!

[kentuck]

If I may make another poker analogy other than "double down"...

Like a poker player that is down to his last two dollars, I am ready to throw it all in the pot. If I don't win, I will go home broke.

But, I'm holding a full house, Aces over Kings, and I feel pretty good about it. The other player is drawing for a straight or a flush. I'm betting he doesn't hit a straight flush.

This hand is too important to fold. I may go hungry if I don't win it? I may no longer have a job? I may be out on the street? But I'm holding nothing back. I'm betting it all on this hand. (As I stand up and dust the back of my britches)

Read 'em and weep, MF'ers!
