It's not really a 'stop n go' if they never started, is it?

My friend suggests we call it a "grrbet."

But as the person who started that other thread asking about "gaybet," I must comment that I find it pretty surprising, at this stage of the poker/internet game, that nicknames have not been given to each, precise type of bet or betting sequence. After all, look at all the nicknames given to the starting hands.

So, let the nicknaming begin in earnest!

What happened to that "gaybet" thread? It seems to have disappeared.

We can't call it a "grrbet." The term gaybet is already accepted in the common parlance.

People will figure it out. A newt was once called an ewt after all.

Who calls an ewt a newt?

[Wynton]

That's a good question. Where did that thread go? I just checked my favorite list and it's not there either.

[Grisgra]

Bizarre . . . looks like the "What is a gaybet?" thread has been deleted.

An old english teacher told me newts were once ewts and over time the language shifted to call the newt.

I've confirmed the thread has been extinguished. I had an old link to it, and when I clicked, was told it's no longer there.

Maybe we imagined the whole thing?
