Bob Seger – Still The Same Lyrics 16 years ago
I totally agree with Saabio and 4Lanie (I'm a man). In my eyes there's never been any doubt that he's referring to a girl, either one he's had or wanted and is bitter at how it all ended. The card games in question, of course, are relationships. She goes from one to another, always getting out before she gets too close and has to show who she truly is and before her vulnerability starts to show.
"A gambler's share
The only risk that you would take
The only loss you could forsake
The only bluff you couldn't fake,"
There are probably a few realationships that she would have liked to continue a little longer, or even start, but circumstances decided otherwise. Those would be the gambler's share.
He catches up with her several years later, and see's that he still doesn't have a chanche and that she's still after the perfect man. He just can't come to terms with this and walks away in frustration.
