nit


gambling term. usually found in poolrooms. refers to:
1. someone who’s so afraid to lose a bet that they have to be coddled and convinced for an hour that they’re going to have a great time and probably win, too. eventually they may play, but by the time they get on the table the stakes are so low the table-time will eat any winnings you make.
2. someone who won’t play unless they have a guaranteed sure win.
3. someone who’ll squeeze a dollar ’til george’s eyes pop out of the paper.
that guy’s such a nit- he wouldn’t bet a nickel that water’s wet.
a nit in poker is only playing premium starting hands and afraid to put in money without the absolute nuts. pretty much similar to a rock. in lower stakes games this style is working marginally because the bad players don’t pick up on their habit and pay them off anyway. any decent player can crush them though which is why you generally won’t see a nit in higher stakes games.
that guy is a complete nit. he hasn’t played a hand for the last hour.
also known as n-gg-s in the struggle which is inspired by the gang wars in the deep ghetto of los angeles. it is used to describe a black person in the sense of failure and such.

poker term describing a player who plays in a boring and predictable manner and is unwilling to bluff or gamble.

typically, but not always, this player will only play solid starting hands, won’t play early position without premium hands, doesn’t defend the blinds, won’t flat from the small blind in a multi-way pot without a decent hand, won’t up the stakes in a home game etc. this person will tend to avoid gambling without an edge, whilst at the same time will take full advantage of any free drinks and/or food offered by a casino.

mark: no.
kris: you are such a f–king nit.
