poker terms 11:36 Sep 15, 2011
to explain in general terms, in poker you can fold your hand (ie refuse to play), call your hand (accept another person's bet and the cards continue to be dealt), or raise your bets (counter-bid a higher bet) in wait for your opponent's response (to raise, to call, or to fold).
trying to make two jacks look like three - pretend to have a better set of cards than you actually have.
so, in the phrase that you shared, it seems like she was caught with a poorer hand than she had pretended to have.
Hope that helps! |
