Tournament Strategies
After receiving pocket cards, you are immediately faced with a choice: play your cards and either raise or call the blinds, or fold.

“Enough of that, Enrico”
“Enough of that, Enrico” said Oppenhiemer. “You’ve been scaring the enlisted men all week. We all know the calculations show that won’t happen. Now deal the cards, Enrico!”
Enrico Fermi dealt a hand
Enrico Fermi dealt a hand of Five-Card draw. The pot was small and was won by I.I. Rabi. The deal moved to General Groves. As the army man in charge of the entire project, everything, from the very beginning, he felt his responsibility keenly. He was never well liked, but always feared and respected for being able to get the job done. He used his size to intimidate many a man. “Five-Card draw,” he declared, “A soldiers game.” Sure enough, the big burly soldier won the pot.
