影片对白
Rachel: Well, now, how come you guys have never played poker1 with us?
Phoebe: Yeah, what is that? Like, some kind of guy thing? Like, some kind of sexist guy thing? Like it's poker, so only guys can play?
Ross: No, women are welcome to play.
Phoebe: Oh, OK, so then what is it? Some kind of... you know, like, like... some kind of, y'know, like... uh, what is it?
Chandler: There just don't happen to be any women in our games.
Joey: Yeah, we just don't happen to know any women that know how to play poker.
Girls: Oh, yeah, right.
Monica: Oh, please, that is such a lame2 excuse!
Rachel: Really.
Monica: I mean, that's a typical guy response.
Ross: Excuse me, do any of you know how to play?
Girls: No.
Rachel: But you could teach us.
Guys: No.
Chandler: OK, so now we draw cards.
Monica: So I wouldn't need any, right? Cause I have a straight.
Rachel: Oh, good for you!
Phoebe: Congratulations!
Chandler: OK Phoebs, how many do you want?
Phoebe: OK, I just need two... the, um, ten of spades and the six of clubs.
Ross: No, uh, Phoebs? You can't-you can't do...
Rachel: Oh wait, I have the ten of spades! Here!
Ross: No, no. Uh... no, see, uh, you-you can't do that.
Rachel: Oh, no-no-no-no-no-no, that's OK, that's OK, I don't need them. I'm going for fours.
Ross: Oh, you're...
Monica: Alright, here we go. We've got salmon3 roulettes and assorted4 crudites.
Phoebe and Rachel: Ooooooo!
Joey: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Monica, what're you doin'? This is a poker game. You can't serve food with more than one syllable5. It's gotta be like chips, or dip, or pretz...
Chandler: OK, so at this point, the dealer6...
Monica: Alright, you know, we got it, we got it. Let's play for real. High stakes... big bucks7...
Ross: Alright, now, you sure? Phoebe just threw away two jacks8 because they didn't look happy...
Phoebe: But... I'm ready, so, just deal.
Chandler: OK, alright, last minute lesson, last minute lesson. Joey... three... eight. Eight... three. Alright babe.
Monica: Dammit, dammit, dammit!
Phoebe: Oh I see, so then, you were lying.
Joey: About what?
Phoebe: About how good your cards were.
Joey: Heh... I was bluffing10.
Phoebe: A-ha! And... what is bluffing? Is it not another word for lying?
Rachel: OK, sorry to break up this party, but I've got resumes to fax before work tomorrow...
Guys: Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Chandler: Rach, Rach, we gotta settle.
Rachel: Settle what?
Chandler: The... Jamestown colony of Virginia. You see, King George is giving us the land, so...
Ross: The game, Rachel, the game. You owe us money for the game.
Rachel: Oh. Right.
Joey: You know what, you guys? It's their first time, why don't we just forget about the money, alright?
Monica: Hell no, we'll pay!
Phoebe: OK, Monica? I had another answer all ready.
Monica: And you know what? We want a rematch.
Ross: Well that's fine with me. Could use the money.
Rachel: So basically, you get your ya-yas by taking money from all of your friends.
Ross:...Yeah.
Chandler: Yes, and I get my ya-yas from Ikea. You have to put them together yourself, but they cost a little less.
Ross: Look, Rachel, this is poker. I play to win, alright? In order for me to win, other people have to lose. So if you're gonna play poker with me, don't expect me to be a 'nice guy,' OK? Cause once those cards are dealt...
Joey:...Yeah?
Ross: I'm not a nice guy.
Ross: Alright boys, let's eat.
Chandler: Oh, did you get that from the 'I Love Rachel' pizzeria?
Ross: You still on that?
Chandler: Oh, come on. What was with that whole Black Bart speech? "When I play poker, I'm not a nice guy!"
Joey: No, I don't think so, see Ross, because I think you love her.
Ross: Um.... no. See, I might've had feelings for her at one time-not any more. I just-I... Marcel! Where are you going with that disc? You are not putting that on again! Marcel, OK-if you press that button, you are in very, very big trouble.

Poker Strategy: When to Check-Raise in a Sit and Go Tournament
The check-raise is a strong move that should be used sparingly. It can be used as a bluffing device, as a semi-bluffing device, and as a defending strategy for a great hand. The first way in which the check-raise can be used is as a bluffing tool. To set up the bluff the check-raise can be used during the preflop, the flop12, the turn, at the river, or at a combination of these game events. If a player doesn't have a strong opening hand, but they do have the advantage of a late position and most of the early position players have folded or checked to them and there are no more than three players remaining in the round, the player can use a check-raise to start their bluff. A check-raise under these circumstances will almost always force the other players in the hand to fold, unless they too are trying to bluff their opponents.
If the check-raise is called or raised at the flop, and the player feels that their opponents are also trying to bluff in this hand, they may want to again make a check-raise bet instead of backing off or folding. If their opponent(s) still don't back down, then the player will need to decide if the amount of poker chips they have already added to the pot are all ready too much for them to wager13, or if they feel that they have enough chips to see their bluff through until the showdown. If they decide to go as far as they need to defend their hand, they will want to maintain their aggressiveness to the end, when wither14 their opponents fold out of the hand or they meet their fate at the showdown.
Another way the check-raise can be used is as a semi-bluff tool. The semi-bluff check-raise can occur at the preflop to intimidate15 their opponents into folding out of the hand, or it can be applied16 to the flop thereby17 allowing the other players to add chips to the pot during the preflop. The benefit of using the check-raise for a semi-bluff is that if the semi-bluff makes it to the showdown, there is still a chance that the hand will be able to win the hand on its own merits.
The final way that the check-raise can be used is to defend a killer18 hand. The check-raise is a very strong and aggressive bet that should be used sparingly. However, if there is a hand that is worth defending, the check-raise is a great way to intimidate weaker players, and to entice19 aggressive players into adding more chips to the pot. This strategy will help a player to minimize their losses and it will help them to maximize their wins. By learning all of the above semi-bluffing skills and strategies a poker player will be able to perform better is a sit and go tournament, and they will be able to improve their overall poker playing abilities.
To quote the great Doyle Brunson "Poker without the check raise is like football without the forward pass".
