Poker Lingo
when u go to commerce casino to play poker, u need to fit in or else
the other players will eat u alive. that’s why u gotta know the
lingo…to blend in and stuff. so here are some tips next time u
go to commerce…
* you chicken??? - hmm…is the dealer calling me a chicken?!? no
actually, she just wants to know if you’re "checking" it.
* flushie flushie? - no no, not the toilet. they just wanna know if u have a "flush" in ur hand.
* chop chop? - ya, sounds like they’re trying to rush u but they’re actually asking u if u wanna split the pot.
* raisins! - ok, what’s with all the food lingo. i’m getting
hungry here. anyways, when they say that, they’re actually trying
to "raise it" or do a raise.
* fakin’ dealah - well, that one’s pretty self explanatory. i
guess when u’ve been "rivered" one too many times, u start taking it
out on the dealers…
* japa! japa!! - don’t worry, the japanese aren’t invading. they just want to win the jackpot…
* when someone wins a big pot, it’s always polite to congratulate them
and say they got a "nie hang! nie hang!" (nice hand, nice hand…)
ya, so next time someone tells u "you chicken?!?!"…just say "no, i’m raisins!!!"
