"If I wasn't a fool, I wouldn't be in this game." "What's the matter with this game?" asked Harris. "Isn't the limit high enough to suit you?" "That's the matter," said Dare, swiftly. "Let's raise the limit." "Let's throw it off," urged Snell. "What's the use of limit, any how?" Frank shook his head. "I don't believe in a no-limit game," he said. "There are none of us millionaires."
He was the son of rich parents, who weren't quite rich enough to buy chips and sit in the game of the no-limit millionaires. So they went in for what they called the simple life. I want to say right here that I'm a great believer in the simple life, but some people are so blamed simple about it that they're idiotic.
"And for that very reason, none of us will play a heavy game," said Sam. "We have played a no-limit game before, and nobody ever bets more than a dollar or so. That doesn't happen once a game, either." "Twenty-five cents is usually the limit of our bets," declared Harris. "Then raise the limit to a quarter," said Frank. "I am willing to give you fellows a show to get back your money."
But they did not fancy having the limit a quarter, and quite a long argument ensued, which resulted in the game being resumed as a no-limit affair. "There!" breathed Wat Snell, "this is something like it. Now I can do something. If a fellow wanted to bluff he couldn't do it on a ten-cent limit." Hodge had said very little, but he seemed willing and ready to throw off the limit.
