sandbagging

When a player in any game chooses (on purpose) to not play their best. Normally this is because they are too superior, they want to hustle you, or they are too lazy to play their best with nothing on the line.

sandbagging

in corporate sales: when reps report a much lower deal opportunity than actually exists. reps do this so that if the deal doesn't go through they don't look as bad and so at the end of the quarter when the company has to make their number the rep isn't selected to perform a high pressure last minute sales job.
this market looks small for us, unless the reps are sandbagging us again.

sandbagging

A car that purposely slows down (especially in the fast lane) to impede you from passing them either on the left or right. Cars often use this maneuver while "passing" tractor trailers and moving the same speed or slightly faster than the trailer to slight the driver (s) behind them.
Yeah I was trying to pass and came up behind this car and soon as I was about to pass, he started sandbagging me for 3 miles.
