Chinese Gambling Songs
Like their movie counterparts, Chinese gambling-theme songs reflect the culture of Chinese gambling and Chinese people's fantasy towards gambling. This page features a few Chinese gambling-theme songs hosted on YouTube. Two of these songs are covered in my book and the rest are simply interesting to listen to. Enjoy!
