spuff angel

A two-card poker hand that initially appears good, but after an unfavourable flop makes you lose all your money

pocket aces A-A but a flop of 4-5-6 and someone has a straight on the flop with 3-7 for example, a terrible hand but one which has you now drawing dead, but because of the spuff angel you are stuck and can't help but put all your money in anyway
