Quotes 

• David Rossi : I can't imagine why not. We're only asking for fifty thousand bucks of taxpayer money so that FBI agents can play Texas Hold 'Em.

  Emily Prentiss : Hey, what about you?

  David Rossi : What about me what?

  Emily Prentiss : You could stake us the buy-in.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Yeah, you're a best-selling author.

  David Rossi : No!

  Emily Prentiss : Why not?

  David Rossi : One, it's against regulations, and I'd like to hold onto this job for a little while longer.

  Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau : It's a minor administrative violation.

  David Rossi : And two, I prefer to spend my money on actual things, like single-malt Scotch, a fine cigar, beautiful artwork.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : Maybe just think of it as, like, a new experience. I mean, at your age, how often does that happen?

  David Rossi : At my WHAT?

  Dr. Spencer Reid : I am banned from casinos in Las Vegas, Laughlin, and Pahrump because of my card-counting ability.

  David Rossi : Look, I know I'm not a genius like the boy wonder here, but poker is not blackjack. It's about bluffing, reading human nature, head games. It's not math.

  Dr. Spencer Reid : That's not entirely accurate. There actually is a mathematical equation for knowing when to raise and when to fold. If "P" represents the size of the pot at the time of play, then P x N - 1, with "N" representing the estimated number of players at the final round of betting...

  David Rossi : Okay, fine. I surrender. Just try not to lose all of my money?

• Aaron Hotchner : So, we're looking for a gambler.

  Emily Prentiss : A gambler in Atlantic City! That narrows the field.

• Emily Prentiss : What about you, Rossi? What's your favorite mob movie?

  David Rossi : I've seen too much of it in my life.
