Stolen from the OT post Word Fun:
Here is the Washington Post's Mensa Invitational which once again asked
readers
to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting,
or changing one letter,
and supply a new definition.
Use poker terminology to make this on topic. I'll start with two easy
ones:
Bet - Place chips in the pot when holding three of a kind
Tush - The part of the body that leaves the seat after losing an all in bet

THIS one is a winner! Very good. I'm going to use it. Infrequently I

I don't see that you added, subtracted or changed any letters. Hows about:
Muck changed to Fuck meaning to fold with disgust.

changed to tush. The third was loan changed to load.

Pimplied Odds- 1) The odds you are getting on winning the hand simply
because your opponents fear getting "a beat down". 2) The increased chances
you get to win a pot by feigning a "bitch slap" to your opponents.
