Re: my most embarassing experience at a poker table
[ QUOTE ]
Wanker - This is a derogatory term used to describe someone who is a bit of a jerk. It actually means someone who masturbates and also has a hand signal that can be done with one hand at people that cannot see you shouting "wanker" at them. This is particularly useful when driving. Taken from this guide. [/ QUOTE ] Wanker is a perjorative term for one who wanks, or (masturbates). In Britain it is particularly used of someone (usually male) who is a self-obsessed show-off. It originated in Britain and is similar to the US insult "jerk-off". Although masturbation is acknowledged as a widespread practice, the insulting properties of these terms still remain. |

First pot I won, I blanked out and just grabbed the chips (sitting directly across from the dealer, so they were right there). The dealer practically slapped my hands before pushing it to me.

Re: my most embarassing experience at a poker table
Not poker related, but I was on safari at one point with a British couple and an American couple. During the day my group and the American couple had gone out together and seen two lions mating. After mating a few times, the male tried to mount the female again but the female pushed him away. When we got back to camp the American couple was telling this amazing story to the British couple. The guy goes "The lion went to the lioness and tried to mount her again. But she would have none of that and just tossed him off." The British couple (and I) cracked up. The American couple was very confused.
