Face down, generally referring to cards in a game of
poker. The person holding the cards can
see them, but no one else at the
table can.
Jon: "Rolled up aces!
Fold right now, this is not good for you!"
(More cards dealt, Jon gets an ace face up)
Jon: "Woo
hoo! 3 aces! Get out of this one."
(Cards dealt out. Nick D raises Jon 50000. Jon calls.)
Jon: "Two pair. twos and threes." (was bullshitting)
Nick D: "
Royal flush. Bitch."
