chained_bear commented on the word ce tripot
"Gambling is an activity as old as time, but rarely has it exercised such a hold on a culture as it did on Enlightenment Europe. ... In France, where Versailles itself was known as ce tripot (the gambling den), noblewomen hazarded millions at the card table each night."
Amy Butler Greenfield, A Perfect Red: Empire, Espionage, and the Quest for the Color of Desire (New York: Harper Collins, 2005), 157.
