Ace. Is it considered a face card? The argument is that all the other face cards have people -- and hence faces -- on them.

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.

Paint = face cards, sure it doesnt have a face on it but any proper deck the aces are well decorated, or some might say "painted."
