Rhetorical question

Question asked that is asked for effect and not usually designed for an answer.

Examples of rhetorical questions-
Speaker: "What defense to the homeless have if the government will not protect them?"

Guy: "Did you get some from her last night?"
Other Guy: "Is the sky blue?"

Office Worker: "How stupid is this new filing system we have?"

they were suited 

1)- Phrase used by dumbasses playing Poker to justify a bad beat they just put on another player. Meaning that they played the hand horribly, making every wrong decision possible, but since they had two suited cards, it is OK. Usually found at low limit games or online.

2)- Phrase mocking the above dumbass player by people who know what they are doing. Used in jest.

1)- Player 1- "How can you cold call three raises before the Flop with a 5-2?"
Moron- "I had a flush and a straight draw"
Player 1- "A FIVE HIGH flush draw?"
Moron- "But they were suited..."
Player 1- (Usually swears here)

2)- Good Player 1- "Ha! I should call your raise with this hand" (Flips over 7-3 of spades)
Good Player 2- "Huh? Why would you do that?"
Good Player 1- (sarcastically) "Because they were suited of course"

bad beat

Poker phrase about an improbable loss on a hand of cards. Means that you started the hand way ahead but got outdrawn, thus you suffered a bad beat.

Many casinos and card rooms offer extra incentives and jackpots for very bad beats (such as losing with four of a kind).

Playing Texas Hold-Em'...

I have 2-3
You have A-A

Flop comes A-2-K
Turn is a 2
River is a 2

In this hypothetical, I put a bad beat on you since your three Aces was way out in front of my pair of 2's after the flop.
