Default Re: Random - Which President was best at poker?

It is my understanding that Truman also played a mean game of poker, or at least played a lot of poker while in office.

This is partially where the phrase "The Buck Stops Here" from his Presidency comes from, refering to the dealer button or "buck", more than an actual $1 buck.

This is in contrast to the Bush Administration, where the motto is "I will take immediate and full responsibility to find some one to blame for this mess".
