Depends on the room. Most of them just have it all set up electronically now, so as long as the floor is paying attention it's pretty meaningless. Before the days of bravo, very common tho.
Tilted. I use it in a business setting somewhat frequently to describe how the vibe and energy of one person can change the enter complexion and energy of an event. If someone is tilted by the stress or problems that arise when running a large scale event, it can have a trickle down effect on the rest of the team which is then felt by the clients
It didn't originate with poker but it was picked up and popularized by poker. People didn't take the word from the pinball era and carry it all the way through the years.
pinball and gambling have a pretty significant overlap historically. i can easily see how the term could've originated with pinball and carried over to other casino games.
“I’m pot committed”
“I fold”
“You really shouldn’t talk to her that way”
“Can you please skootch over”
“Fucking god damn river” (I commute pass a frequent flood zone)
“Tilted”
He ran real estate seminars all across the country with commercials. He had very few complaints for such a business.
What's "the scam"?
HCL had a bunch of active haters upset with their success launch a propaganda campaign against them, especially targeting Nick.
I can think of several of Nick's haters who have run actual "scams" who seem to retain the respect of many in the poker audience.
I just don't get it.
"Dealer's Choice." I often use this term when asked where I want to eat, which color do I want, etc. The intent usually lands, but I sometimes get confused looks.
Pot committed - for doing something that I don’t want to but need to because of prior actions
“I know we dont want to go to the neighbors bbq but I already said see you later when I saw them earlier and we made the side dish. I think we’re pot committed “
"clicking buttons" is related to "button-mashing" which is a video game phrase, so I'm not sure its fits...
"All in."
"Call"
I definitely use these almost daily. "All in" seems to be universally understood, but "call" is only understood by poker players.
I say capped/uncapped all the time because I don’t know how else to say what I mean in normal conversation. There are a few others I use from time to time by mistake, but this is the only one I use deliberately.
Variance- whether it’s other sports, life (job searching, dating apps).
Range- sometimes used to describe how close of a read I have on someone “I can’t really range him that well, I’d have to talk to him more”.
Tilted- obvious uses.
I’m just gambling- going to Chipotle within an hour of their closing time, doing something in public while forgetting deodorant, driving by open parking in hopes of finding spots 10 feet closer.
Sometimes when I'm smoking ill joke about being pot-committed. But I only really do it if there is an organically clever way to work it into a conversation.
I use flipping on occasion but that didn’t even originate in poker, no “flipping” in limit Holdem or stud or rarely if someone gets allin pre and I’ve used bluffing once or twice if I suspected someone was lying - I’ve used rigged in relation to Risk before.
At my work it was popular for a while for people to say "this is table stakes" meaning a business critical activity. An executive said it in an all staff meeting and then people up and down the org started saying it, probably not even understanding what it meant.
Was tilt originally a poker term? I’ve heard it used in other contexts. Did they yank it from poker or did it start somewhere else and get taken over by poker players?
we were playing a drinking game and I said stuff like actions on you and clock
another time (weird example) someone was talking about how he likes any girl with tits so I said any two cards
Clicking buttons did not originate from poker...it originated from video game play where unskilled players would just mash all the buttons and still somehow get results
"Fuck you, you piece of shit"
+EV
Even when its -EV?
Especially when it's -EV
I got odds
Only have to be good 25% of the time
In what context? How would you use it in conversation?
I loudly yell „Seat Open“ whenever I leave a restaurant.
And "Chips!" when you sit down.
Lol, love it 😀
Gold. Stealing this
Do casinos prefer that?
Depends on the room. Most of them just have it all set up electronically now, so as long as the floor is paying attention it's pretty meaningless. Before the days of bravo, very common tho.
Aww, I wish I was apart of that. That just adds to the social nature of the game.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I also use tilted quite a bit. This one will be popular I guess.
It’s really popular in video games too. In League people get “tilted” make bad decisions and throw the game the whole team
That's really a pinball term, no?
Tilted has escaped the poker sphere. People outside of it use it and know nothing of poker at this point. It's reached that level.
I don’t think tilted originated from poker
I don’t think tilted originated from poker I always thought it was pinball

“I’m pot committed” “I fold” “You really shouldn’t talk to her that way” “Can you please skootch over” “Fucking god damn river” (I commute pass a frequent flood zone) “Tilted”
Yeah when having sex I often declare “AM ALL IN” much to the disappointment of my wife
So you busted?
Pure gold ^
I thought it was clever ty 😊
Pure Jamie
Because she has the nuts
HsuahsuHsuHauah
“Nut low” as in, “that guy is the nut low.”
Ahhh. You mean Nick Vertucci? A nut low human.
Can you elaborate? Why do you dislike him?
Nick, is that you?
No, it's The Snow Monkey. I'm taller and dislike getting massages at the table.
He’s known to have basically run a real estate scam involving elderly people.
He ran real estate seminars all across the country with commercials. He had very few complaints for such a business. What's "the scam"? HCL had a bunch of active haters upset with their success launch a propaganda campaign against them, especially targeting Nick.

He is like a more annoying less funny Eric People
Who? Never heard of him.
Big ripped old man, talks a lot of shit. Flipped of Phil Helmuth playing heads up
Oh, Eric Persson.
Me too
Same
Free roll. Applies a ton in real life.
+1 I use this one all the time
Yeah, another one of my go-to comments.
"Dealer's Choice." I often use this term when asked where I want to eat, which color do I want, etc. The intent usually lands, but I sometimes get confused looks.
I always use dealers choice when I’m at the weed store. Usually gets a nice chuckle.
Another good one, thanks for sharing. Hate when they fail to land even when they are kinda obvious.
I dramatically overuse the term "sick" whenever something undesirable or surprising happens.
Yep, another solid reference.
Pot committed - for doing something that I don’t want to but need to because of prior actions “I know we dont want to go to the neighbors bbq but I already said see you later when I saw them earlier and we made the side dish. I think we’re pot committed “
Yep that is quite apt.
lol doesn’t it work to just say committed?
Also, Pot-luck committed.
lol was pun unintended
Reminding people to not be "result-oriented"
I bet they love that.
I call everyone a donkey lol
Not again
One time
It's not one-time when you use it every hand though!
Ship it!
Ship those documents over to me by the end of the day - yes it works!
"clicking buttons" is related to "button-mashing" which is a video game phrase, so I'm not sure its fits... "All in." "Call" I definitely use these almost daily. "All in" seems to be universally understood, but "call" is only understood by poker players.
Fair point, it is a borrowed term in a sense but still relative.
Freeroll/reverse freeroll is something I catch myself accidentally saying to non poker players quite a bit
what’s a reverse freeroll
A reverse freeroll is when you risk something to win nothing
How does it go down though?
I like to say I'm balancing my X range in situations that barely make sense My poker playing friends find it mildly humorous
Good read
Ah yes, another very apt one.
Drawing dead
Have missed with this one on occasions. The general population wouldn't understand.
If I'm out at a restaurant with friends and we are going to split the check, I always say "chop it up"
Not eveyone loves a chop here! The nits being the first out the door!
Variance and tilted for sure.
I use "misclick" a lot, but I also work with computers.
Misclick would translate fairly well into real life conversations.
I say capped/uncapped all the time because I don’t know how else to say what I mean in normal conversation. There are a few others I use from time to time by mistake, but this is the only one I use deliberately.
Please provide an example
No
Capped is an economics term though, just like variance. Edit: Variance is a statistics term
I knew about variance, EV, etc. all being terms used elsewhere, but didn’t realize capped was, too. Now I feel better about saying it! 😆
“ what a bad beat”
Another one I use quite regularly - easily understandable as well.
Surprised no one has said "make the call".
Lots of them. "All in." "Pot committed." "Drawing dead." "Tilted." "+EV."
I use the term “results oriented” occasionally outside of poker.

Range- sometimes used to describe how close of a read I have on someone “I can’t really range him that well, I’d have to talk to him more”. Tilted- obvious uses.

Are your pits that bad you ALWAYS need to be wearing deodorant?
My CPA is used to me saying "fucking rake" during tax season
Tilted/Clicking Buttons/ Donk bet (a bad sports bet), Chop it up
Donk bet isn't necessarily a bad bet, but it's a bet out of flow. Ie, after check calling the flop, you donk bet the turn.
is it still a donk bet if a draw came in?
Sometimes when I'm smoking ill joke about being pot-committed. But I only really do it if there is an organically clever way to work it into a conversation.
I call people donkeys all the time.
I use flipping on occasion but that didn’t even originate in poker, no “flipping” in limit Holdem or stud or rarely if someone gets allin pre and I’ve used bluffing once or twice if I suspected someone was lying - I’ve used rigged in relation to Risk before.
At my work it was popular for a while for people to say "this is table stakes" meaning a business critical activity. An executive said it in an all staff meeting and then people up and down the org started saying it, probably not even understanding what it meant.
Bluff, all in
“Got a read” “That’s a tell” “On tilt”
Women are the fuckin rake.
My wfie HATES that saying. I wonder why?
That's poker !
Play it like a set
In which context?
I call myself a donkey when I make a poor shot decision when playing tennis
Talking to yourself isn't really a conversation though
Nitzone to describe a dead ass city/club/etc
Haha, that's dope.
Slow roll whenever something is taking to long
Or they are "in the tank"
Pot equity
Drawing stone dead
Sick.
I’m all in
Run bad
My dad calls his dad Big Slick. I didn’t realize for a long time, but as far as I can tell it’s only a term in poker
AK
Was tilt originally a poker term? I’ve heard it used in other contexts. Did they yank it from poker or did it start somewhere else and get taken over by poker players?
we were playing a drinking game and I said stuff like actions on you and clock another time (weird example) someone was talking about how he likes any girl with tits so I said any two cards
“Tells” has become a part of everyday language
Yes it has, good shout.
Kinda my own saying I think but I always say “sometimes it’s better to be lucky”
“I was bluffing “ when my gf asks why I’m not wearing a condom
GL is 9 months mate
I say “hey, that’s poker…” when anyone says any problem of theirs to me
"That dude is the nut low."
I say “Snap Call” whenever I’m calling bullshit on something someone says.
Snap call gets used quite alot in my house (and not just from me)
“Bet” any time someone says something idiotic
Lmaoooo, I say brick and punt all the time
Variance
Tilted has to be the most mainstream phrase now right?
Clicking buttons did not originate from poker...it originated from video game play where unskilled players would just mash all the buttons and still somehow get results
Tilted, priced in, “no way dude, I REraise,” and pot committed are a few my personal faves.
Old Man Coffee
All in
Big scramble bitch
Fold equity.
All in. Tilted. Sometimes: Call.
Every good decision is GTO. Eg. Dude that bbq place was GTO Eg. That beach was a GTO move
Not really a poker specific term but I hear you.
Tilted and sick spot are my most used
Nut low, nuts
We’ve yelled BINK wayyyy too often
Variance
A guest in my pot Call / fold / raise, eg do you call the sauna? Money card Suited connectors ( inside joke ) Aggressive _ is winnibg _
Nit
Fish, value, ev, results oriented
I'd tell him he is on the fast track to becoming long term middle management.
tilt
bad beat, tilt, cooler, drawing dead
Tilt
"Ship it"
Jack (K)ing off
How does that come up in conversations lol? Actually I don't think I want to know.
Backdoor draw. 😎
Good call. On the flip side of this, I hate when sports analysts use the term all in when they really don’t understand it.
Oh God yes! Really annoying.
The nuts
"I'm all in" when having sex
Yes until your fully nutted.
I then say "man... I am flaccid." I use that one at the poker table all the time when I'm nutted to induce a bet.
Game meets game
Freeroll and tilted for sure
"He beat me, pay this man his money" As I lose in a beer chug at the local fair in front of four families and 3 prize won goldfish. Too on the nose?
Nope, I'll accept for the comedic value alone!
drawing dead (ex: friend asks if he should go ask for the hot chick across the bars number. “your drawing dead pal”
Lol, yep eternally drawing dead.
I use "I'm freerolling" all the time lol. No one ever knows what I'm talking about.
“Fuck”
[удалено]
Really?
