"Simplest but most complicated"

From a pack of playing cards, imported from an unspecified country...

The Big Wizard and Little Wizard are the jokers, by the way. And I should add that the jokers are just regular, traditional jester figures, not depicted as wizards.

So, poker: the simplest but most complicated game in the cultural history of the human being. Who knew?

Still, the happiness in every day is a nice sentiment...

  1. These fanciful interpretations and translations are delightful. There was me thinking Poker is just "any of various card games in which players bet that they hold the highest-ranking hand" but now it's a life-affirming philosophy!

    1. I guess we have to take our philosophies where we can find them!
