this is silly, but I'd like to post these new lame-ass slang terms so I can
take credit for it one day if it ever becomes part of poker vernacular: :)

If you win with a Big Slick, announce loudly with an obnoxious attitude
"beat you with the Exxon Valdez buddy".

Also, A huge pair that wins the pot on the river is know as a Dolly Parton,
while any J9 that wins the pot is gives you the right to announce "beat you
with the Bin Ladin, sucker"

Ok, i'm ready for the rants....but if you have any good slang i'd like to
collect it for my website.

Dooly already has a hand, 9-5 and as far as Bin Laden, why the hell

Must be counting the J as 11... 9-J = 9-11

As for other underutilized poker slang:

the enema = backdoor flush

the douche = three of the same suit on flop (a.k.a. frontdoor flush)

the heavy flow = four of the same suit on board

big viscous = AQ

Just once I'd like to hear Vince say, "Ah, Gus is looking at that flop
and now he's got an unfresh feeling..."

OK, I just added this one to my handname spreadsheet, and included
your name and the date and a link to RGP as the source. However, my
spreadsheet gives each handname a rating, based upon whether the name
is local, regional, or a classic, so this one is going to need a bit
of a publicity campaign.

>Also, A huge pair that wins the pot on the river is know as a Dolly Parton,

Dolly Parton is already a 9-5, from her movie by that name. Another
"big pair" is a Raquel Welch (3-8) and the "small pair" is a Twiggy
(2-9).

How about Marcia Gay Harden? She was the big pair on Mystic River...

>while any J9 that wins the pot is gives you the right to announce "beat you
>with the Bin Ladin, sucker"

Hmmm... I think I am missing this one, maybe a bit out of touch with
the news on BL. Why J9?

My hand name list is published at: www.holdemsecrets.com/handnames.htm

Thanks for your reply! :)

I like the Exxon Valdez for a big slick, but the other ones i'm not crazy
about.

Infact, a 9 Jack being a 9 11 is not in good taste, so I'll scratch that
from my list.

Infact, it would be more accurate to say that an Exxon Valdez is an AK of
spades (lots of black)

....esp. if delivered by a drunk player, since the Captain of the Exxon
Valdez was drunk at the time of the accident that caused what I believe is
the largest oil spill accident ever.

Rich, your list is excellent, I plan on bringing it to my next home game.

Most people refer to Q3 as San Francisco Busboy for Queen with a trey.
I like to call it a "bitch with crabs" right before I muck it.

K3 for King Crab.

This isn't slang for a poker hand.

If I have a really crappy day playing poker and my friend asks me how
I'm doing (and vice versa), the reply is "Drivin' the truck" - from
Rounders, when Mike McDermott lost his bankroll and had to quit poker
and drive Knish's truck.

My friends and I have come up with the following terms. 8-5, but more
importantly 8-5c are known respectively as "Cornerstone" and
"Cornerstone Crusher". Also due to the fact that we watch the movie
"Snatch" almost religiously the term "Nuts" signifying the best hand,
has been replaced with "Minerals"---in a British accent of course.
Finally, we have also done away the terms "Heater, Rush, Horseshoe out
of the ass, etc." and simply replaced them with the term "Butaning".

Serve and Enjoy!

Not really proper slang (he he), but in our home game, whenever we
deliver the "Big Blind Special" by winning a big pot with T3o or
something of that pile... we always turn our cards over and say "Cha cha
cha...". Comes from a band called "The Supersuckers" who say that after
most of the songs they do in concert. Most would never get the
reference, but try it, its really fun. Especially if you let the last
"cha" draw out a bit.

Cheers!

King Jackoff is excellent, but Ace Jackoff sounds like a superhero or

We call the 85 "the Scag" (named after me) because it's the shithand I
always seem to flop straights or boats with. 85s diamonds is the Scag
proper, but 85o is an acceptable Scag.

I always liked "submarine" for a boat submerged (without a pair
showing) in stud.

T9o is "obvious steal hand" as is T8s and several others.

Dolly Parton is 95, from the film.

I have never seen anyone post "sticks" for AA in the hole but I have
heard it at the table. "Sticks to beat you with" is a phrase I have
used.

T2 is Dolly.

KK is "Ace magnet" and JJ is "railbound"
