It's an american joke, my apologes for both using a cultural reference and making a pretty snarky comment.

A more "HN-spirited" comment would have been:

   You aren't speaking from any real authority or 
   experience, and your 5 paragraphs could have been summed 
   up with the following: "when you gamble you don't expect 
   to win them all, so regret is baked into the equation".
   Please be more concise with your comments and get to the 
   point.

tl;dr the only way to catch them all is to fund them all

There is a series of commercials where someone who is handling a task well explains that they are not a professional but they slept at a Holiday Inn Express the previous night.

The original commenter's post read like the beginning of one of these commercials.
