This made me laugh:

make sure the crescendo
of your cha-ching
overwhelms the cut
of your bustle

It's wise advice, but we know gamblers are sick with greed and luck.

Besides its clever irony, I loved the rhythm helped by the layout in this piece, too. It allowed me to make little pauses to picture the gestures of the speaker.

This poem of a game speaks the truth of life.

Loved it, @prydefoltz :D
