Trottski

The 'trottski' is the English (British) translation of what is commonly referred to as 'the straddle' in Texas Holdem Poker. A trottski bet is a minimum of double the big blind, which may be executed by the player immediately to the left of the big blind, and can only be enacted before cards are dealt.

The actual name 'trottski' originated in Reading, a large town in the county of Berkshire, England. It is named after Lord Arthur Dingleberry Trott, a well known floral botanist and semi-professional cheese sculptor from the 1850's. Lord Trott introduced Texas Holdem Poker to Britain following one of his cheese sculpting exhibitions in Chicago in 1854, and the rest is history.

In an attempt to entice bigger betting, Neville decided to trottski his poker opponents.

Trotskied 

Verb.

To trotsky an image is to remove a person from an image through physical or digital manipulation, similar to how Stalin removed Leon Trotsky from several famous images of himself with other powerful Soviet leaders.

The word can also be used to refer to manipulation of other media such as photos, videos, and music to wipe out imperfections, typically in the name of painting a more flattering picture, or to deceive the viewer.

Ex. 1

Joe: “Did you see how Jay removed Danny from his wedding pictures with photoshop?”

Eric: “Yeah, he totally trotskied him. Makes sense after he slept with his mom, though.”

Ex. 2

“There used to be homeless people sitting on that bench in the original image. However, the city digitally removed them in order to pretend they don’t have an affordable housing issue.”
