Ian had a Full House Aces over Kings, he could only lose to one card, middle pin nine of hearts to give the other guy a straight flush, Sarah was dealing and last card she turned the nine of hearts!! She was dumpleton dealing for sure!!

deadlights 

While It can take assume any shape to terrify Its prey (ex: Pennywise), Its true form is not on earth. The true form of It exists beyond the physical, in a void surrounding our universe, known as the macroverse. It's true form is described as living, insane, writhing orange light. Direct contact with the deadlights results in instant death (with the exception of Audra Phillips who entered a deep coma). The deadlights can be seen through It's eyes when It takes the form of a giant female spider which is the most accurate shape the deadlights can translate to on earth.

Bill Denbrough is almost taken into the deadlights when he engages It in the Ritual of Chüd, under the Derry sewers in 1958 and 1985.

deadwing 

A person who has been compromised or proven themselves unreliable, untrustworthy, a liability, and generally useless. Someone who has fallen from grace, and is generally ostracized. Someone who destroys themselves or others or causes great harm due to acts of stupidity, hubris, vanity, greed or negligence. For example, Icarus flew too close to the sun, melting his wings, and fell to his death.

Surprisingly, this word is used quite often in English-speaking countries, but does not appear in mainstream dictionaries. Some examples of popular references are Porcupine Tree's album entitled "Deadwing", and used in "Walking Dead" when Martinez refers to the Governor as a 'deadwing'.

After falling asleep on guard duty for the third time, Billy had become a deadwing, and was no longer trustworthy for guard duty.
Barney was a deadwing and could no longer be allowed to carry a gun after it went off and shot Otis, who was passed out drunk in a nearby jail cell.
They're making that deadwing Johnny sweep floors after he drove the forklift off the loading dock.
This is the third bar Billy's got us thrown out of tonight, so as far as I'm concerned, he's just a deadwing.
