A long time ago in a galaxy far away, a poker blogger named hdouble wrote an epic two-part post using quotes from The Big Lebowski to shed a new light on the poker world. Many years later, hdouble is now friend/maniacal overlord of The Rail (please don’t give me another 10 lashes for this one), and I thought it would be fitting if I paid homage to our fallen comrade by ripping off his idea (which he, in turn, ripped off from Bill Simmons, who probably ripped it off from someone else). After all, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.

With that said, I’ll be attempting to match as many quotes as I can from that great cornerstone of American culture, The Simpsons, to our very own Full Tilt Poker pros. Some of the quotes will be stretches; some of the quotes have been so dead on that I couldn’t use them for fear of reprisal; some of the quotes I’ve picked simply because they’re so damn funny. One other note before I get started: I’ve nicked most of these quotes from various online sources, none of which I trust in terms of accuracy. So if you notice anything wrong, please don’t freak out and send me angry emails about how I’ve desecrated a classic piece of pop culture. Hey, we all make mistakes, right?
