    34 years ago in 5th grade. I sent a letter to Kenny. He sent me a 12x 12 picture signed. I still have it to this day. He's legend

      Sounds like my childhood. My father particularly loved Alabama, those guys could really play. Back when country music was right in the sweet spot of time it had developed and still tremendous respect for what came before them. I listen to modern country and shake my head. Classics like these get better over time...

    My Dad feel in love with poker the last 15 years or so of his life, turned out he was really good at it. He never went and played professional, just played at bars and the like. He started taking me when I was 17, and I learned the game too. It has been years since I held a hand, but I ALWAYS keep his deck of cards with me, you never know. He passed away on May 26, 2024, so it's been six months with him gone. For those that read this, this song so much reminds me of him, for he always had a word of wisdom to offer. He was a good man. My late wife explained it the best.
    He was a father and man worth missing.

Once you know the One who wrote the rules, follow them and give Him everything, He will let you say how you're going to play the game. Draw or stud, 5 0r 7 cards, what's wild etc. Just remember, you are a dead man walking, you never play for keeps! Break even!

      Tomas Balciunas music is a magical way of teaching. I remember music more than anything from my childhood. Its why I don't think two year olds should hear gangsta rap. When I'm alone in the morning, at my worst, hangover and sad, what I hear in my head is Eagle's songs. My dad was a musician so I don't doubt that factor, but no child should ever hear music promoting something horrible. I remember songs I learned in other languages as a kid, including Latin and an African tribal language. Dude. Seriously.

      "The gambler, he broke even" I love that sentiment as a metaphor for death. It's like in the movie the Green Mile, Brutus tells Percy: "He's paid what he owed, he's square with the house again." after the execution of Arlen Bitterbuck. Some people look at it as euphemisms and newspeak but the sentiment behind lines such as these is quite lovingly poetic.

    When I was 18 years old, my boyfriend (who is now my husband) was getting ready to deploy overseas. The night before he left, he took me into his living room then put on this song and danced me around his living room while he sang it to. Many, many years later, the best man at our wedding sang that song for our bride and groom dance. It's been 30 years and two kids and that is still one of my favorite memories.

    Why I've always cherished this song is because it's a message that everyone, at times, needs to follow. Be aware of what and who's around you, knowing that your daily life is a gamble. It's a game where you have confidence in yourself, know when to evaluate yourself, learn to accept and trust others, run away from fear but towards what you feel is your calling. Give yourself faith and do your best, self evaluate, and finally... balance!
    I find it a message on how to live the life you've been dealt. This will always be a gamble. Play your cards right!

He is one of those few who had "IT.". I saw him performed in 2016 and when he sang The Gambler I sobbed. I felt so lucky to have heard that performance live. Mr. Rogers, with your talent, your advice, your example, your patriotism, your songs, you gave this could try so much. Thank you for so many memories and lessons. May you rest in peace. I hope as you showed your last hand you remembered that beyond your family you were loved and respected by countless fans across the world.

She was 14 and a violinist. She had her instrument with her and when he saw the case he started to ask her thoughts on various music that she played. He was genuinely interested in her music. The second time I met him he was sitting across and one row up from me on a plane. I introduced myself and told him about how his meeting and talking to my daughter was so great for her. He remembered the occasion!!! God it is nice to see such a superstar behave like a gentleman and be so nice to a young fan. Thanks for so much great music....

      Why should it matter if you are black or white? I think it is more a question of parenting. It is likely that you favour the same or at least some of the music genres that your parents like as well. The only reason that so many black kids like "ganster rap" is because of their culture and therefore Self-fulfilling prophecy. If a very young child already thinks "I am black so I must like rap and hip hop" it is very common that this actually comes true.

      That is why I am here. This song came on the radio one early morning. And for the first time I head the opening lyrics. The chorus is such a hook that it blows everything else. This is a great great song. Long live the Gambler. ❤️❤️
