Interesante atículo hemos encontrado en la red, más específicamente en poker.about.com, relacionado con el poker dentro de la música. Una selección de las siete mejores canciones sobre poker (relacionadas directa o indirectamente con él), que nos parece curiosa y que merece ser compartida con vosotros. Posiblemente se dejen muchas dignas de mencionar, pero estas son muy conocidas y típicas.
La primera canción es 'The Gambler' de Kenny Rogers, todo un clásico su "You got to know when to hold'em, know when to fold'em".
Otra popular canción, que sin embargo no hemos encontrado en un video de buena calidad, es la canción 'That was a crazy game of poker' de OAR (of a revolution).
Según hemos leido, la autora de este 'No cheap thrill', Suzanne Vega, es una gran jugadora de poker. Posiblemente por ello, se pueden encontrar muchos términos familiares en la letra de esta canción, como en el coro "I'll see you, I'll call you, I'll raise you, but it's no cheap thrill".
Otro clásico, el 'Deal' de Grateful Dead.
O el marchoso tema 'Go down gamblin'de Blood, sweat & Tears.
La quizás más reciente y popular actualmente, es la canción 'Poker face' de Lady Gaga. Es normal escucharla en cualquier lugar, ya que esta muy de moda.
Y por último, el tema del famoso Leonard Cohen, 'The Stranger song'

The ace of spades de Motorhead.
No es un tema de poker al 100%, pero tiene bastantes similitudes con él :D .
la letra de No cheap thrill de Suzanne Vega parece que esta un poco mal en el video, he encontrado esta
Ante up. and don't be shy.
who is that man who is catching my eye?
what's underneath all of the deadpan face?
sitting so pretty with a criminal grace?
lamebrain pete wants to spit in the sea.
he's got a cool hand but it isn't for me.
butcher boy thinks he'll be splitting the pot.
but i've seen what he's got and it isn't a lot.
(when deuces are wild you can follow the queen.
i'd go too except i know where she's been.)
i'll see you, i'll call you, i'll raise you
but it's no cheap thrill
it will cost you, cost you, cost you
anything you have to pay.
i limit the straddles, and you shuffle and deal.
when will the dealer reveal how he feels?
is the lucky beginner just a five-card stud?
is this winning streak going to be nipped in the bud?
i'll see you, i'll call you, i'll raise you
but it's no cheap thrill
it will cost you, cost you, cost you
anything you have to pay.
i'll match you, i'll bet you, i'll play you,
but it's no cheap thrill
y esta es la de the gambler. muuuuuy buena
Kenny Rogers - The Gambler
On a warm summer's eve, on a train bound for nowhere
i met up with the gambler. we were both too tired to sleep.
so we took turns a-starin' out the window at the darkness.
when boredom overtook us, he began to speak.
He said, "son, i've made a life out of readin' people's faces.
knowin' what the cards were by the way they held their eyes.
so if you don't mind my sayin', i can see you're out of aces,
for a taste of your whiskey, i'll give you some advice."
So i handed him my bottle, and he drank down my last swallow.
then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
and the night got deathly quiet, and his faced lost all expression.
he said, "if you're gonna play the game, boy, you gotta learn to play it right.
You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em
know when to walk away, know when to run.
you never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
there'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
is knowin' what to throw away and knowin' what to keep.
'cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser
and the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
And when he finished speakin', he turned back toward the window,
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
and somewhere in the darkness, the gambler he broke even.
and in his final words i found an ace that i could keep.
You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em
know when to walk away, know when to run.
you never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
there'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
Repeat twice
