Did you Know? President Richard Nixon
 Richard Milhous Nixon was the thirty-seventh President of the United States between 1969 and 1974, beginning his political career with the money he earned playing poker during World War II.
Nixon, who was in the Navy as a soldier, at that time poker was the card game preferred by all recruits.
Nixon said that the key to success was mere observation, he used to say "those with cards tend to speak louder and boastful people tend to shout."
When he came to politics he had to stop playing because poker was not well regarded by the political class.
