highveld (iou) and Dark - Poker (gambling)


highveld (iou)



highveld noun. L19.

(A region of) veld situated at a high altitude; spec. the region in Transvaal, South Africa, between 1200 and 1800 metres (4000 and 6000 feet) above sea level.

Dark - Poker (gambling)


1) Without looking at your cards. "I' ll open dark." "He made a dark bet." 2) Check without looking; always followed by it. "I' ll dark it" means "I have not looked at my cards and I shall check" and implies that the speaker is drawing to a powerhouse (in high draw Poker) or to a must-call hand (in lowball; for example, an 8, but not a must-bet hand) so you better not try to bluff him, but in actuality usually means he doesn' t want you to bet.
