a deck of cards

Are you a gambling man? Play a round with me. We both have nothing to do anyway. You don't trust my cards? Look, you can examine them. They're not marked. Of course I won't stack the deck; what kind of shark do you think I am? You shuffle then, if you're afraid.

Oops. Too bad for you. Yes, I win a lot, but that's just the way the cards fall. I do know how to stack the deck, and how to calculate odds by the cards that have entered play, but I don't need to. Lady Luck favours me. What, if she has a change of heart? Oh, it won't last. Luck's a fickle bitch. Let the cards fall where they will. Besides, it's not smart to get too used to having things your way all the time. You can't touch her deck.
