"Me, I actually have a hand you can play. Queen and queen. There are only two hands you're really worried about when you have queen. You're worried about ace-ace, and king-king. And you're somewhat worried about ace-king. But really, statistically, when you've got king-king and there's only three people sitting at the table, you've got the boss hand as they say. So, me, I'm going to look there, I'm going to see his bet, I'm going to know he's playing his position, actually he's playing his chips, he's playing rock, and I'm going to say heck, I'm all in. This person over here, he looks down and he says, I've got ace-eight, normally ace-eight is pretty strong in a three-handed game, but the first guy bet several times the big blind, the next guy went all in, I'm going to use my position, the scissors, to say "My hand's probably not good. I fold." And that, is the power of rock, paper and scissors, or chips, cards and positions."
