A nit in poker is only playing premium starting hands and afraid to put in money without the absolute nuts. Pretty much similar to a rock. In lower stakes games this style is working marginally because the bad players don't pick up on their habit and pay them off anyway. Any decent player can crush them though which is why you generally won't see a nit in higher stakes games.

Get the nit itmug. An acronym that stands for "Not In That Sense". Mostly used to disambiguate a word or a sentence containing a sexual innuendo or a double meaning. Usage of the word eliminates the risk of reproach and possible bashing by a speaker's homophobic friends.
