I think you're thinking of Yoda's quote in The Empire Strikes Back: "No, try not! Do or do not. There is no try."

If you weren't trying for anything, you wouldn't draw, you'd just stand pat. Just the act of drawing implies that you are indeed trying for something. In the case above, if you hold the 345 of diamonds and draw two, you are trying to complete a straight flush, and if not that then at least a flush, or straight, or trips, or pairs. You might not succeed, which is why they call it gambling, but you are at least trying. In the end, to quote the old TV series Kung Fu, there is no try, only do or do not, but when you draw, you are trying.
