all-in

In no-limit poker, to bet all of your chips as a sign of total confidence in your hand.

If you have a very good hand, go all-in to win the maximum number of chips or to scare off mediocre hands so they won't catch the cards they need to beat yours. If you have a bad hand, you can bluff by going all-in and hope everyone folds.

I went all-in on thirty miles and that river rat caught a runner-runner flush.

hug

(v) To make a candle melt evenly by pushing the warm outer wax toward the center with your thumb or palm.

Multiple-wick candles will last much longer if you let them burn long enough for the whole top to melt and then hug them every time you blow them out.

cold deck

(n) In poker, a deck of cards that a player feels is not yielding an average number of playable hands.

"I'm not sure if it's a cold deck or I suck, but I can't win a hand tonight!"

check-raise

(v) In poker, if you have a great hand but worry that if you bet, nobody will call -- you check through and wait for someone to assume you missed too. When they bet to scare you off, you raise them, resulting in a larger pot.

Check-raising only works if you're first to act and you're the only person who made a hand.

the suits

Slightly negative reference for the executives or management of a company, because they are paid better and dress more formally than the employees.

"I work twice as hard as the suits and get paid half as much."

yeah yeah

Sarcastic way of saying you've heard enough of someone, usually their excuses. They need to get to the point or just shut up.

- "... and then I had to stop and get gas, and the traffic ..."
- "Yeah yeah, you're late."
