I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Ahh. Vishing. I would've called that Discover card thang so quickly.

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

I'm not American either, but I just figured it was kind of suspicious that the IRS would email something like this.
