S Slade
Six stacks, is that right, Shooter?
S 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.
S 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.
S Slade
Yes, for my kind of money, gut money. I wanta to see that smug old bastard gutted. Gutted!
S Slade
Yes, that's right, that's right!
You call that an argument?
S Slade
No, that's a fact. The argument's leaning over there against the door jamb. [Referring to his muscleman]
S 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."
