- Hey, listen.
- What? 
- I put it all on the line. That's true.
                And you know what? It wasn't a bad beat.
                I wasn't 1.__________.
                I got outplayed. I got outplayed that time.
                But I know I'm good enough to sit at that table.
                It's not... It's not a fucking pipe dream. 
- I don't doubt your 2.__________. 
- I never... I never told anybody this.
                About eight, nine months ago, I'm at the Taj, it's late,
                and I see Johnny Chan walk in.
                And he goes, he sits.
                And the whole place stops when Johnny Chan walks in.
                Everybody puts an eye on him.
                After a little while, there wasn't a crap game going...
                'cause all the high rollers are over there watching him.
                Some are playing with him, giving away their money to this guy to say...
                "Oh, I played with the World 3.__________."
                And you know what I did?
- What?
- I sat down. 
- Nah, you need       grand to play right in that game. 
- Well, I had six, but I had to know. 
- What happened? 
- Played tight for an 4.__________. I folded mostly, and then I made a score. 
- Wired aces or kings? 
- Rags.
                I had nothing. But he raised.
                And I just decided, you know, I don't care about the money.
                I'm just gonna outplay the guy.
                I'm just gonna outplay this guy this hand. I re-raised. 
- Re-raise.
                - You played right back at him, huh? 
- Oh, yeah.
                And he just comes right back over the top of me,
                trying to bully me like I'm some fucking tourist.
                I 5.__________ for two seconds. I re-raised.
                And he makes a move toward his checks, and he looks at me.
                And he looks at his cards, and he looks at me again.
                And he mucked it. I took it down.
                "Did you have it?" "I'm sorry, John. I don't remember."
                I got up, and I walked to the cashier.
                I sat with the best in the world, and I won.
                You put a fucking move on Chan, you son of a bitch.
