Hold one card that has no name of its own. It is not the queen of hearts and it is not the seven of ; it is whatever the hand still needs. Two things follow from that, and every use of the word comes out of one of them. Because the card can become anything, it is the most useful card at the table. And because it can become anything, nobody sitting opposite can work out what the hand will turn into. The same blank card is both a gift and a thing you cannot calculate.

可以想成手上有一張沒有自己名字的牌。它不是紅心皇后,也不是黑桃七,你缺什麼它就是什麼。從這裡會長出兩件事,而這個字的每一種用法都是其中一件。因為它可以變成任何東西,所以它是桌上最好用的一張。也因為它可以變成任何東西,坐在對面的人就算不出這手牌最後會變成什麼。同一張空白的牌,一邊是好處,一邊是算不準。
