My friend Bob had a problem because he liked to gamble at all costs. He would play at any time and at any price. To take part in a card game such as poker, my friend would have to ante up. He would have to pay a small amount of money at the beginning of the game.我朋友鲍勃有个毛病,他喜欢不惜代价(at all costs)来赌博.无论什么时间,什么价码他都会赌.参加纸牌赌博时,鲍勃需要先押注(ante up).即在每局纸牌开始时押上点钱.
