When a player in any game chooses (on purpose) to not play their best. Normally this is because they are too superior, they want to hustle you, or they are too lazy to play their best with nothing on the line.

I just beat him the first two games. Should I money match him?

Nah, he was sandbagging.

sandbagging

in corporate sales: when reps report a much lower deal opportunity than actually exists. reps do this so that if the deal doesn't go through they don't look as bad and so at the end of the quarter when the company has to make their number the rep isn't selected to perform a high pressure last minute sales job.

this market looks small for us, unless the reps are sandbagging us again.

sandbagging

A car that purposely slows down (especially in the fast lane) to impede you from passing them either on the left or right. Cars often use this maneuver while "passing" tractor trailers and moving the same speed or slightly faster than the trailer to slight the driver (s) behind them.

Yeah I was trying to pass and came up behind this car and soon as I was about to pass, he started sandbagging me for 3 miles.

Rachel: You know it, these apple pie sandbags look silly now, but when the Saxons turn up, they ain't gettin anywhere near my Bulls jumper.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
