War is often filled with long hours of boredom, broken only by moments of violence. To pass the time, soldiers would tend to their kit and drill, sing songs, play musical instruments, read or write letters home, and even gamble. While gambling was discouraged by some officers, others like Union Generals Phil Sheridan and U.S. Grant were avid poker players. Confederate Generals Nathan Bedford Forrest and John Bell Hood were also known to enjoy a game of poker, while Robert E. Lee was not a fan of gambling.

The game of poker became popular in America thanks to the Mississippi riverboat, and the term 'Riverboat Gambler' was used to describe well-dressed high rollers. Unfortunately, many cardsharps would take advantage of unsuspecting soldiers and separate them from their hard-earned wages.

But with 'Can't Win for Losing', you can experience the thrill of gambling without the risk. This 1/30 scale matte finish single figure comes in a box, making it the perfect addition to any toy soldier collection.
