The plot:

The story is about a great gambler, poker player, and, of course, charming fraudster Bret Maverick. About how he selflessly "earns" money to participate in the poker championship. But not only is he going to take part in the "great fraud" - the charming thief Annabel also aspires there. A lot of adventures will fall to their share, as long as they manage to collect 25 thousand dollars each, which is exactly the amount needed to participate in the game...

 

4. Lady Gaga – Poker Face

"Poker Face" is a song by singer Lady Gaga from her debut album "The Fame". Of course, this song is more about life than poker. However, the catchy chorus "You can't read my poker face" accurately conveys the atmosphere of the game itself.

 

5. Madonna – Gambler

"I'm a gambler and I'll take you by surprise. As a player, I'll trick you around my finger" - this casino song from the soundtrack to the 1984 film Vision Quest. Sounds like a great mantra for any player. The slogan of the movie is: «All he needed was a lucky break. Then one day she moved in».

 

The plot:

6. Motorhead – Ace of Spades

For fans of heavy metal, this song is about a gambler who walks on a razor's edge and crushes competitors. The legendary song "Ace of Spades" fully corresponds to the three epithets that can characterize the Motorhead group: they are "dirty", heavy and loud. "Ace of Spades is a wild "opener" from the band's 1980 fourth studio album of the same name. These are the speed metal riffs jumping, crashing into the brain, and the incomparable vocals of Kilmister.

 

7. Juice Newton – Queen of Hearts

The country song Queen Of Hearts by Juice Newton from the album Juice was recorded in 1981 by Capitol Records Nashville. In this song, you will hear that the queen of hearts is not the most suitable card for the game. You can try it yourself and make up your mind.

 

[Chorus]

Playing with the queen of hearts

Knowing it ain't really smart

The joker ain't the only fool

Who'll do anything for you

Laying out another lie

Thinking 'bout a life of crime

'Cause that's what I'll have to do

To keep me away from you.

 

8. Frank Sinatra – Luck Be a Lady

"Luck Be a Lady" is a song written and composed by Frank Loesser in 1950 and first performed by Robert Alda. The song was featured in the musical Guys and Dolls. Lady Luck can be fickle and inflexible, but nothing prevents you from winning her over to your side. No matter if you play dice like Sky Masterson in the 1955 movie Guys and Dolls, or if you prefer playing at the online casino without leaving your cozy home.

 

Guys and Dolls, the plot:

 

A hard-core player, Nathan Detroit, receives an offer to organize a big dice game, but this requires somewhere to get $ 1,000. Being in difficulty, Nathan accidentally meets Sky Masterson, famous for his passion to bet on almost anything.

 

Skye boasts that he can take any woman he wants with him on a trip to Cuba. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nathan offers to bet that the woman he indicated would not agree to go with Sky. He agrees to the conditions set, and Nathan chooses the strict Sarah Brown from the "Mission to save souls".

 

9. Ray Charles – Losing Hand

Returning home after an unsuccessful hand is much easier to the sounds of your favorite song, it helps to tune in to the next session. Losing Hand is the song from the album "The Anthology Album".

 

Lyrics:

 

I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand

I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand

Your ways keep changing like the shifting desert sand

While I was playing fair baby you played a cheating game

While I was playing fair baby you played a cheating game

I know you don’t care but I love you just the same

I thought I’d be your king baby, yes and you could be my queen

I thought I’d be your king baby, yes and you could be my queen

But you used me for your joker 'cause I thought you’re deal was clean

The way you did me pretty baby I declare I never understand

The way you did me pretty baby I declare I never understand

I gambled on your love baby and got a losing hand

 

 

10. Grateful Dead - Truckin’

This is a classic song containing the famous quote: "You've got to play your hand. Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime if you don't lay'em down.”

That was a crazy game of poker

I lost it all

But someday i'll be back again

And I, never to fold

(never to fold)
