Suggesting to delete this article because Wikipedia is WP:NOT a game guide, and this article is little more than a dictionary definition that lacks reliable sources. Burntsauce 23:42, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep. There are plenty of technical poker gameplay and terminology terms that are used in Wikipedia articles that need to be explained. This is one that needs a longer explanation than should be listed in the already long Glossary of poker terms article. It could use sources of course [which I have now added], but it is not a mere definition nor a mere game guide. Without this page the text would have to be moved to the glossary page, where the length of this entry would be out of place (and an entry of this length is necessary to explain what the term is, and also is not). 2005 00:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

    • KEEP- same reason as Stitch Poker, which also should have been kept. Card games don't count now? This is a bad nom.JJJ999 13:15, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
