The old man gave him life advice using gambling references. He saw the young man troubled. When the old man faded off to sleep he died. The advice was the ace that the young man could keep.

The gambler was teaching him "life lessons". He was using gambling metaphors to teach him about life, because life is a game and a gamble. eg - knowing what to throw away or keep is the life choices we make.

@julien.4617 Год назад

Poker was a metaphor for life. Everyone is dealt a hand of cards when they're born. You can turn them into a winning hand or a losing hand. The gambler did the best that he hope for by dying in his sleep. The ace he could keep was the life advice he'd just gotten from the gambler. They were not playing cards. You don't know exactly who someone is (what hand they're holding), but a wise person can read another person and so knows how to play their "cards."

@wendyt7958 2 года назад

My favorite Kenny Rogers era was the 60's when he was with The First Edition. If you like this one then give a listen to "Tell It All Brother" and "Somethings Burning" the studio versions...such soulful songs.

No, the gambler passed away in his sleep, but he gave him an ace he could keep, meaning good advice

@deniseadkins2901 7 месяцев назад

"There'll be time enough for counting when the dealing's done." You will only know what kind of life you've lived when it's over. Until then, know what to keep in your life and know what to get rid of. Know when you can walk away from something that's wrong or bad for you and know when to run. Don't ever judge your life by the minute you're in because it will change.

@zen15man 8 месяцев назад

The song is a metaphor for life. Knowing what to do with what life throws at you.

@thomaspalumbo6482 2 года назад

The "ace that he could keep" means the advice that he got before the gambler died.

@anonthehousemouse Год назад

The song is more about life advice than gambling. It's about looking at the things you are offered throughout life and gauging whether it's something good (hold 'em), bad (fold 'em), really bad (know when to walk away), or horrible (know when to run). And "don't count your money when you're sitting at the table" means "don't count on easy wins" e.g. looking at the bets on the table and assuming it's already yours, as well as "don't flaunt what you've got, it makes you a target.". "Knowing what to throw away and knowing what to keep" is about the people in your life. But, the line is also tied in with "every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser" which reminds you to be cautious about who you push out of your life because there may come a time where someone you've pushed away comes through in a pinch that really saves your bacon.

@davidberman1310 2 года назад

One of my most vivid memories of my father when he was alive was sitting down in his chair after work, sparking up a cigar and playing this album every single night…Obviously I have a huge love for Kenny Rodgers

@angelabarazzone7899 2 года назад

A short time before he died Kenny did a video with Home Free- Children Go Where I Send Thee and it shows even as old as he was, he still had it!!

@systemsoversymptomsvisionw9806 2 года назад

I always knew from the first time I heard this that the Gambler died in his sleep, and the ace was the wisdom/advice her had given the singer. But, I often overlooked the advice, thinking it was mostly about poker. More recently, I've thought about how knowing what goals to pursue, and what goals to put down (not follow) is SUPER important in life. Also, not "counting your money at the table" is, in my view, about not "keeping score" while you are alive, or worrying about "success" as perceived by others, NOR should one brag or act like they have it all figured out - but we should all just do the best we can, and enjoy life in the PRESENT - to enjoy the game WHILE WE PLAY IT - and only after we die should we reflect back on how we scored overall.

@solitarybee3714 2 года назад

The old man said that the best a person could hope for was to die in your sleep. That was just what the old gambler did, there on the train as he slept, he passed away. What the singer got from that entire lesson was whatever he could make of it in his own life.

@craigholfeld9179 Год назад

Ya'll should react to "Buy me a rose"... By Kenny Rogers. It's one of the most beautiful songs ever written. You can tell how genuine a lady's soul is by how much they agree with that song. And it reminds guys to cherish what they have while they have it. I think you guys would love it.

@sarahjulianne2954 2 года назад

When he says the guy broke even that's in reference to his death and also the balance of his life with the good in the bad. There's a long-standing school of thought about yin and yang and how in the life of any being you're going to have a number of good days and a number of bad days and that number is going to be somewhat balanced when you die. But it also refers to everything having a beginning, having an end. So he owed a death because he was given life and now that circle was completed. That's also breaking even. Also in the song when he says don't count your money at the table, that's about not getting caught up in the materialistic part of life because you're living, you have to pay attention to that. They take care of everything when you die so just live and be alive. Kenny Rogers is the man. But music is so relative to the listener it can become whatever you associate it with. That's why music is so universal. I can say in my mind he found $10 on the floor and that's what it meant lol why not I want that guy to still be alive

@31Mike 2 года назад

You can't listen to Country music and take it so 100% literal. This song is a metaphor for life, not a lesson on how to play actual poker. The old gambler was dealing out life wisdom, and dies in his sleep, right there on the train.

@sonnyharrelson3897 2 года назад

the ace he could keep was Wisdom of the game, Real Gamblers don't have to cheat. you really need the watch the movies, The Gambler, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, Kenny Rogers stared in them..

@DioxJXD 2 года назад

As others have said the song is a metaphor for life and life's lessons all being told through poker metaphors. Basically he's saying your life is what you make it of it, you control your destiny, don't get hung up on every little thing because the only time you need to recollect every detail is at the end of your life and the best way to go out is in your sleep.

@howieronay8895 2 года назад

Guys this song ain’t about cards. It’s about life. Listen to it again. It’s a metaphor

@mariannegoldweber1577 2 года назад

The ace is a metaphor for the lesson he learned from what he told him. The Gambler faded off to sleep.. he passed away in his sleep which is what he always hoped for.

@freddieray1234 Год назад

When he says and when he finished speaking he turned back towards a window crush. A cigarette and faded off to sleep and somewhere in the darkness he faded off to sleep passed away. The ace is the knowledge that he got from the guys talkin to him. The guy gave him some college knowledge about life.

@willowb1527 2 года назад

He was teaching about life. That song always makes me cry every time I hear it because that is metaphor for life if you really listen to the words. Rest in peace Kenny Rogers. ♥️♥️ Oh could you react to his song that nobody has reacted to yet it's called Love will turn you around.

@kendallcarstens9194 2 года назад

There is a series of 5 movies that Kenny starred in; all based around this song. Also, Coward of the County movie, starring Kenny--also based around one of his songs by the same name.

@Meyzen76 2 года назад

Fun Fact: There is a golf course in Florida, Arnold Palmer’s Kings North, that has a hole called the Gambler, and it has Kenny’s footprints in cement on the tee box. It’s a tough one that lets you play it safe or “gamble” and go for an island fairway.

@belkyhernandez8281 Год назад

When the guy sat down he was out of aces. In other words, he was down in life and ready to give up and the gambler noticed. So the gambler taught him in life every situation is a winning hand or a losing hand depending what you do with it. No point in fretting (don't count your money when you're sitting at the table) because we are going to win and lose until we die (when the dealing is done). The gambler gave him a different way to look at his situation before he died. That was the ace he could keep.

@pfcampos7041 2 года назад

I love you guys but you totaly missed the boat on this one! I had to switch to my computer to straighten things out for you... The gambler is giving him advice on poker AND life! The game of poker is a metaphor for life. We are all dealt a hand that can be a winning or losing hand depending on how we play our cards. We have to know when to fold them or hold them, when to walk away from a game even to run if necessary. (Basically we need to make good decisions in life.) YOu never count your money when you're sitting at the table means. We don't get cockey, we don't take life for granted or assume we know it all. We don't judge our circumstances or anybody else's because you never know until the end what the final result will be. It is only when the dealing is done (When our life is over.) that we will know the truth about it all. Whether we played the game well or not and then we can count the spoil and enjoy it. HOpe you do more Kenny!

@chrissemones6195 2 года назад

He died but Kenny learned a life lesson. The Ace was a metaphor for the lesson he learned. Awesome

Love the channel and when i was a kid i took this song literally but really it's about life. You have to know when to take risks and when to walk away from things in life and the old gambler gave him advice that he could use. That was the ace. I listen to a lot of country music and iys full of double meanings. Love yall energy and interaction!

@_Common_Logic_ 2 года назад

None of this had to do with cards... It was LIFE lessons that the gambler passed on to the young man before HE "passed on" in his sleep. Everything in this song is a metaphor. 😉

@doop8436 2 года назад

The song has a double meaning.. 1st is about cards.. 2nd is about life and how you live it.. "When the dealing is done" refers to when your dying and that is when you "count your money" meaning were you a good person(win) or bad person(lose)..
