Slade

Six stacks, is that right, Shooter?

Six.

Slade

Well, we've been playing 30 hours... uh, that rate, six thousand, that makes roughly, uh, $200 an hour. Thank you for the entertainment, gentlemen. I am particularly grateful to Lancey, here; it's been a rewarding experience to watch a great artist at work. Thank you for the privilege, sir.

Well now, you're quite welcome, son. It's a pleasure to meet someone who understands that to the true gambler, money is never an end in itself, it's simply a tool, as a language is to thought. Good evening, uh... Mr. Slade.

Slade

Good evening, Mr. Howard.

[Slade blackmails Shooter into cheating on his dealing so the Kid will beat Howard]

Hey, why are you doing this? It can't be for money.

Slade

Yes, for my kind of money, gut money. I wanta to see that smug old bastard gutted. Gutted!

Like he gutted you.

Slade

Yes, that's right, that's right!

You call that an argument?

Slade

No, that's a fact. The argument's leaning over there against the door jamb. [Referring to his muscleman]

Slade

How the hell did you know I didn't have the king or the ace?

I recollect a young man putting the same question to Eddie the Dude. "Son," Eddie told him, "all you paid was the looking price. Lessons are extra."
