Don’t put in money on hands you feel «lukewarm» about. The real hand -the one you feel good about pushing a lot of chips in on - may be right around the corner. It may occur on the very next hand, and you want to have plenty of chips in front of you when it arrives. Think of the chips you’re using to «chase» with on borderline hands as money you’ll wish you had later to use - when that better hand comes along.
Those who worship by folding two hands Or by raising one hand Or only by nodding their head And those who give offerings to images of Buddha, Even with only a flower, Will eventually realize an infinity of Buddhas. They will reach the highest realm. - The Lotus Sutra
