(Standard) Jazz - On A Slow Boat To China

原来百年前老外们就向往中国啦，下面的又是另一番意思
The origins of the term appear to lie in the game of poker. Card sharks used to refer to someone who lost slowly and steadily as a “slow boat to China,” referencing the fact that a patient player could “ride” the victim all the way to the bottom of his or her pocket book. The idea was that the winnings were slow and steady, much like a ship on its way to China, making the victim a profitable venture for a poker player.
