That just rocks! Next time I play live poker I'm gonna say "Je te relance" or "Ouais? Moi, je vais relancer" every time I raise. I'm sure it's +EV. How do you say "all-in" in French? (In Swedish, we just say the English "all-in". I suppose you do the same, but if not, I sure would like to know.)

How do you say these things in German, anyone? Spanish? Russian?
