Comments

From Ryan : This is one of my favorits Goofy cartoons. It begins with Goofy sitting in his office when a coworker makes a bet with him over his lunch. I enjoy the scene where after Goofy leaves the alley where he has been shooting craps, he carries a barrel as though he has bet all his clothes. This barrel happens to contain all the money he has won. I also enjoy the poker game sequence and feel that it is nicely done, especially the clouds of smoke.

From Baruch Weiss : This is a great cartoon. I have the uncut version on The Complete Goofy DVD. I loved the poker scene!

I have seen "Get Rich Quick" and would like to
