2.44.19
devane kuśalaścāhaṃ na me'sti sadṛśo bhuvi |
triṣu lokeṣu kaunteyaṃ taṃ tvaṃ dyūte samāhvaya || 19 ||
[paragraph continues] I am skillful at dice. There is none equal to me in this respect on earth, no, not even in the three worlds, O son of Kuru. Therefore, ask him to play at dice. Skilled at dice, I will win his kingdom, and that splendid prosperity of his for thee, O bull among men. But, O Duryodhana, represent all this unto the king (Dhritarashtra). Commanded by thy father I will win without doubt the whole of Yudhishthira's possessions.'
