Full steam ahead!<\/span><\/p>\n

1. The Gambler by Kenny Rogers<\/b><\/h2>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

The Gambler is a first-rate country classic by Kenny Rogers, where you find yourself on a train overhearing a wise conversation between a seasoned gambler and the one who appears to be \u201cout of aces\u201d. As a result, the latter, together with the listeners, find an ace in the words of the wise man – they get an insight into what gambling and what life are really about:<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cYou’ve got to know when to hold ’em<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Know when to fold ’em<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Know when to walk away<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

And know when to run<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

You never count your money<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

When you’re sittin’ at the table<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

There’ll be time enough for countin’<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

When the dealin’s done\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Without a doubt, this compellingly melodic song full of philosophy deserves a comfy place in a gambler\u2019s playlist.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

2. Ace of Spades by Motorhead<\/b>\"Ace<\/p>\n

This song is a mascot of the renowned hard rock and heavy metal band, Motorhead. The heavy rhythms of the guitar intertwined with the emphatic screaming singing style of Ian \u201cLemmy\u201d Kilmister produced a huge wave in the ocean of poker songs. It tells the story of playing on the edge, where pleasure is all that is important no matter if you lose or win! <\/span><\/p>\n

Isn\u2019t it a true statement? Listen and make your own judgment!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

3. Poker Face by Lady Gaga<\/b>\"Poker<\/p>\n

\n

With her iconic song, Poker Face, Lady Gaga took the world by storm! Back in 2008, right at the start of her career, an eccentric blonde chose to tap into the popularity of the game of poker. \u00a0And we must admit, she hit the nail right on the head! This song was and remains one hell of a success. Gaga skillfully used the terminology of the game to show the correlation between poker and love. <\/span>Most would agree that showing your emotions in love makes you vulnerable – which may be good or bad, whereas showing your emotions at the poker table most likely makes you an outright loser – we bet this is not a really coveted scenario!<\/span><\/p>\n

As it stands, wearing a poker face in some situations is a must, just look at Gaga with her unemotional expression who\u2019s holding all the winning cards! So get tuned to: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCan\u2019t read my, can\u2019t read my <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

No, he can\u2019t read my poker face\u201d,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

and be a winner both in a game and life!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

4. Deuces Are Wild by Aerosmith<\/b>\"Deuces<\/p>\n

Steve Tyler draws a parallel between his strong feelings for a girl and the well-known deuces wild poker. To elaborate on the crux of the game, it revolves around cards with the rank of a \u201c2\u201d, so-called deuces, they are wilds that act as cards you need to build a strong hand, and consequently, make your game<\/a> go great guns. His girlfriend has all he could possibly dream about: <\/span>\u201cI love you \u2018cause your deuces are the wild girl\u201d, <\/span><\/i>he keeps repeating. And then he adds: <\/span>\u201cYou an\u2019 I is two of a kind\u201d<\/span><\/i>, meaning they are a perfect match just like a poker winning combo! And devil take those ruddy grammatical rules!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

5. Desperado by the Eagles<\/b>\"Desperado<\/p>\n

The thing is, we all can feel lonely at times, there\u2019s no crime in this. However, from the Eagles\u2019 perspectiv<\/span>e, living in solitude for too long equates to committing an unlawful act and detaining yourself in \u201cprison\u201d, hence the song\u2019s name.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poker metaphors are popping up all the way through the verse. \u00a0For instance: \u201c<\/span> Don’t you draw the queen of diamonds boy, she’ll beat you if she’s able<\/span><\/i>. <\/span><\/i>You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/span>. In other words, <\/span>the cards you draw in life make all the difference. <\/span><\/p>\n

So if you feel like succumbing to a somewhat melancholic mood, your best bet is the Eagles\u2019 Desperado!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

6. Shape of My Heart by Sting<\/b>\"Shape<\/p>\n

It\u2019s quite safe to say that many lost their hearts to Sting\u2019s song about a game of chance. In the song Shape of My Heart, the singer positions himself as a philosophical gambler who cares little about winning, instead he seeks to put his finger on \u201c the hidden geometry of chance, the hidden laws of probable outcome\u201d. <\/span><\/p>\n

The song feels like meditation, during which you may be able to crack the mechanics of the game, which is called life! You\u2018ll do it via symbols and cards, shuffle them in your mind a couple of times. We bet you\u2019ll end up in the mood for playing!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

That\u2019s it! The top 6 songs list about gambling is done and dusted! So how do you like it?<\/span><\/p>\n

In all honesty, there are plenty of songs that were just inches from our thoroughly concocted collection of the best game of chance music creations. We may write about them in our later posts, so make sure you keep your eyes peeled to our blog!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

As for now, get some good vibes from a musical, poker, black jaggery, slot machinery, you name it, mood!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
