It amazes me of all the silly descriptions of a small town by ignorant people on here. No, I dont live in one, but I did for a while. They are not all the same. Yes, some are poor, but some are also very affluent (Lake Zurich, Illinois for example).
A small town is the anithesis of a big city, which is not necessarily a bad thing. A small town is a community where people are a generally friendly, laid back folk, and where everybody knows almost everybody there. If you stop and ask for directions, the person giving you the directions will probably turn it into a conversation. The community is probably a speed trap, but the police who give you a speeding ticket are often known and called by their first name. You are usually not afraid to unlock your doors (although I wouldn't do it). Most businesses in town are family-owned ma-and-pa stores threatened by the Walmart nearby, which is probably the community's largest employer. The Mayor probably has another job on the side. You also know your'e in a small town because the people raise a stink over a new business coming in, fearing that it will create "traffic congestion." Some small towns can be suburbs or exurbs of a large meropolitan area.

The first forced bet in Texas Hold 'Em poker and other similar poker games. The small blind is generally equal to one-half the minimum bet rounded up to the nearest chippable value (e.g. with 100/500 chips, and big blind equal to 500, the small blind would have to be 300 instead of 250).

"small kine" is pidgeon English. It's Hawaiian slang for saying "a little bit" or "to a small degree".
If someone can't hear you well over the phone, but can pick up what you're saying, they'd say, "I can hear you small kine." (i.e., I can hear you a little bit.)
