Cripple - Poker (gambling)


In hold ' em, have most of the cards that would make someone else a hand based on the current board, such that you are not likely to get action; usually followed by the deck. For example, you start with pocket aces, and two aces come in the flop. You have crippled the deck, because everyone else is worried about someone having an ace.
