A simple question

[Ulysses]

Is it possible to describe a limit poker hand without using any of the following terms (or other similar jargon)?

float
smooth bet
donkbet
clarkmeister theorem
hijack

When did people stop doing simple things like betting and cold-calling?

[Tyler Durden]

yes it's possible

[Schneids]

When it was concluded cold calling = bad, and floating = good, even though they're the same exact [censored] thing and people that say they're floating really just don't want to face the fact they're probably playing bad because they're probably picking a bad spot to open cold call in. Etc etc etc.

If you'd like, I can start calling all of my normal bets that don't fit any of those special terms, "Diablo bets."

[Sen. VernonTrent]

Yes, and you can take that to the bank.

Would you prefer CO-1? Button-2? UTG+5?

[surfdoc]

Sure, but that takes some of the fun out of it. Some of this jargon has its evolutionary origin on these boards and that makes it easier in some ways for us to communicate. I mean, isn't easier to say "I open raise from the Hijack" rather than "I open raise from the two off the button or cutoff minus one?" It saves time and that is good. After all, aren't coldcall and such just jargon also?

[DcifrThs]

you want it. you got it.

A better and more fun questions is can you describe a hand ONLY using these terms.
Alsoif you steal Blinds from the "hijack" does this make you a terrorist?
