Great tribute to the likes of "Lost Wages", NV. How easy it is to romanticize a truly evil endeavor.

Super job. Deal me in...
Might not fit terribly well, but could consider OAR, "Crazy Game of Poker."

Hey Mo - I got your discs burned!! I haven't forgotten! Can you include this in my stuff - pick another of mine or take a raincheck - this does indeed look like MOTW material. Great job! As an afterthought, I'll ask if you considered including my favorite Bob Seeger song - Ramblin Gambin Man. Maybe a little too poppy for this fine mix.

You must be playing with a stacked deck!
I once tried doing a gambling mix for a serious poker player
but mine came out way lame complared with this. Any chance you'd be willing to trade for this?
