It reffers to an old poker story about Jack Straus. In the 1982 World Seires Main Event he push all his chips into the pot but was called and lost the hand. When he got up to leave he found a single $500 chip under his cigarette pack. He won the blinds in the next hand and after doubling up acouple times he went on to win the Main Event. Just shows you no matter how short you are you still have a chance to win.
