Everyone knows a lot of poker nicknames. EG, pocket 8's are called snowmen, pocket Aces are pocket rockets, nits are tight players etc.
What are some of the ones you made up yourself and why do you call it that?
I have 1 that I made up and now use among friends but they don't bother with it.
The "Han Solo" bet.
When a player makes a big bet of nowhere into a small pot. For example, there are 3 limpers in a 1-2 NL texas holdem game and the button raises it to $75 dollars or something like that. This is often done by new nitty players with hands like A-K or sometimes by maniacs who just want to establish dominace.
They want to play the "HAND SOLO"
get it?

Sitting in the 1-seat, I fold 84o pre-flop, like any normal person would do. Dealer tells me I just folded the winner. I tell her there’s no way that hand would win.
Flop has a 4 on it, so I quietly tell the dealer I would have flopped bottom pair. She says, “Ssshhh.”
After the turn, I see that if the river is a 7, I would have had an 8-high straight.
River: 7
The 8-high straight would have taken it, so now I think of 84 as “the Krissa”, after that dealer.
