Presidents that Gambled

Many U.S. leaders have also been pretty serious gambling men. Andrew Jackson, Ulysses Grant, Teddy Roosevelt, Warren Harding, and Lyndon Johnson all played poker. When he was in the Navy, Richard Nixon won enough at the game to finance his first congressional race.

BTW Barack Obama’s game of choice is also poker.
