The album focuses on gambling, and loosely tells the tale of a middle-aged man who grows restless and takes a chance by going to a casino and betting all he has, only to lose it all. The original LP had a side-long title piece, which on the CD version is broken up into five tracks.
"The Turn of a Friendly Card" is also notable for spawning the moderate hits "Games People Play" and "Time", the latter of which was Eric Woolfson's first lead vocal appearance.
