Post your submissions for the Poker Playlist

[TenPercenter]

I'd like to build an MP3 playlist to run during games. What are your suggestions for poker/gambling related songs for the list? As the list gets going I'll update this thread with what we have so far.

This is probably not known by many, (if any), but here's my first submission, which happens to be a favorite song of mine:

Ten

[plaster8]

Casino Queen -- Wilco

"I've been gambling like a fiend on your tables so green."

[Slow Play Ray]

O.A.R. - Crazy Game of Poker
Grateful Dead - Loser
Grateful Dead - Deal

[chipper57AA]

Turn of a Friendly Card - Alan Parsons Project

"oh the game never ends when your whole world depends on the turn of a friendly card."

[MeridianFC]

"Mississippi Flush" Ray Wylie Hubbard (this could be one of the best poker songs ever)
"the Card Cheat" - the Clash (as is mentioned above)
"House of the Rising Sun" - Woody Guthrie

[CaptLego]

well, I suppose *somebody* has to say it....

Kenny Rogers -- "The Gambler"
You've got to know when to holdem, know when to foldem...

[DerryABU]

I prefer the Johnny Cash version of "The Gambler"

[P1mphand]

As I don't normally (ever) post here, whatsup. I think that party favorites, on a digital cable music channel, work well, especially if there are other people not into the game there. Good old school hip hop and popular reggae, very depending on the crowd, are good for the right mood. I like rock and way out alternative, some trance myself, but a lot of that isn't any good for background. That, and here are some good ones...

Take the Money and Run- Steve Miller Band
Mack the Knive- Frank Sinatra
I Ain't Goin' Out Like That- Cypress Hill
Ace of Spades- Motorhead
Kings and Queens- Aerosmith
Beat It- Michael Jackson (for joke value)
Take Five- Dave Brubeck Quartet

[Mojo Tooth]

Phil Harris' "Darktown Poker Club" is a must.

Don't forget AC/DC's "The Jack," which is so full of poker/sex double-entrendres that it should be canonized.

Losing money in Vegas by High Strung

Local band, used to be a friend of mine.
