31.學會趨利避害
學會趨利避害。霉運往往是對愚蠢的懲罰,且極易傳染。不要以惡小而開門,因為大惡往往會隨之而來。玩牌的訣竅是:你應(yīng)明白自己何時該舍棄某張牌。在過去的一局中,最大的牌也比不上現(xiàn)在最小的王牌。假如你舉棋不定,記得結(jié)交智慧而審慎的人,他們遲早會贏。
31.Select the lucky and avoid the unlucky
Select the lucky and avoid the unlucky. Ill-luck is generally the penalty of folly, and there is no disease so contagious to those who share in it. Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other and greater ones invariably slink in after it. The greatest skill at cards is to know when to discard; the smallest of current trumps is worth more than the ace of trumps of the last game. When in doubt, follow the suit of the wise and prudent; sooner or later they will win the odd trick.
