Damn, this is good! or words to that effect.
Now whip his backside and pay him back
Also:
Hell/Damn, that's cool!
Hell/Damn, this was a blast! (not sure about this one, though)
It's an informal expression in italian, so I think it's better translated with some slang.

He could have also referred to himself :
"Damn, am I good !! "
"Damn, am I good !! "
Ok, a more academic question.
What's the difference between "cavolo!" and "cavoli!" - does the plural just make it stronger?

No - both are just euphemisms anyway, and in this acception 1 cabbage equals 2 or more cabbagesOk, a more academic question.

Right - it really depends on what he was referring to.
To himself: Damn, I'm good!
To gioeyo: Damn, you're good!
To the game: Damn, this is a great game.
To a particular play/hand: Damn, that was a nice hand! / Damn, nice play!
etc.
It really all depends. For example, if it was a close game, it could mean, Damn that was a close game! (close in a positive sense, meaning challenging but fun). Or maybe he meant, I won the game, but damn you're good!
Oh Cabbages!!!! I wish I understood that!No - both are just euphemisms anyway, and in this acception 1 cabbage equals 2 or more cabbages
Thanks!
