I love watching a good horse do what he's bred to do-I guess that's what I like the most about it. And I love to see good athletes do what they're bred to do.
I've got about $30,000 in chips, not near enough.
The folks who own this hotel and casino are dear friends of mine. As far as I'm concerned, this is maybe the last old gamblin' joint in this town.
I raise quarter horses. Mine are mostly thoroughbred cross horses, a little bigger horses than some people like. I sell them or use them on the ranch. A lot of them go to the rodeo arena and some of them go to racetracks.
I'm very proud of my heritage.

Hopefully, generations after us will continue to protect, preserve, and look after this wonderful land.
I'm not anybody's judge; I don't know what motivates people to do what they do. But I have a lot of admiration for anybody who can start with absolutely nothing and make a little something out of it.
I rope steers in team roping events. There's a header and a heeler on a roping team, and I'm the heeler.
I maintain that if there is such a thing as a true and honest environmentalist, it's people like Slim and hopefully me, who have been caretakers of the land all our lives, along with the generations before us.
What I know about poker, you can fit into a thimble with room left over, but I'm learning.
