Aces win Matches

My friend Ram sitting right beside me is licking his tongue at the mention of the term "matches"; the ever so optimistic cricket fanatic. Well he might be an Ace but he hasn't really won any matches of the type that I am gonna talk about. More so because he is a born winner and rarely has any "matches".

Now lets get over to tennis, the game that obviously comes to one's mind when you talk about Aces. Who said Aces win matches??? The player with the most number of aces in the last 2 years unfortunately hasn't won even a single grand slam in the last 5 years. Who then says that Aces win matches!!!

Now to the game which would be the most appropriate when it comes down to Aces . Well anyone remember Casino Royale!! - the high octane Bond thriller featuring Daniel Craig. Well that I suppose is a big enough hint about what I have been talking about. Yes ... none other than poker.

My knowledge about poker is next only to my knowledge of what my professors teach in my classes [:)]. But as my "gurudev", the all too famous Suku "Kung-fu" Panda says : Aces win Matches.
