chip and a chair

All that a skilled player needs to win a poker game.

I put John all-in with my pocket aces. He called with three-nine offsuit and drew out on me, costing me nearly my entire stack. But I've still got a chip and a chair, and so I can still win, just like Jack Straus at the 1982 World Series of Poker.
