Downright gutsy

Guys are teaching girls how to play poker. Monica has lost the game, she is upset. Chandler is trying to explain what was her mistake:

- Joey had two fives showing, so for you to raise was...
Monica:
- Yes?
Chandler:
- Downright gutsy.

What did Chandler mean by "Downright gutsy"? Is that some poker term maybe?

  1. Я не особый знаток покера, но не ошибусь, если скажу, что "Downright gutsy" здесь можно перевести как "очень смело". Судя по контексту, изначально он собирался сказать, что "поднимать ставки было глупо", но решил не рисковать.

How is Chandler's reference to Hymn 253: "His Eyes are on the Sparrow" funny? Ross and Rachel just broke up. Rachel invites guys to a free event she has tickets to. They reject the invitation, because Ross had them reserved for that same night earlier. Rachel says that it's not a big deal and leaves. Everyone is upset especially Chandler.
