Barricade Books, 2006-08-25. Paperback. BRAND NEW SOFTCOVER. From Zooted to Brass Brazilians, Kamikaze to American Airlines, DRAWING DEAD TO A GUTSHOT: How to Talk Poker teaches you all the poker lingo you need to know to talk like the poker pros. Veteran poker player Brant Janeway takes you on a tour of the language of poker, giving you the vocabulary you need to get right in the game.From The Hilton Sisters (a pair of queens) to Motown (a jack with a five—"the Jackson Five"), DRAWING DEAD TO A GUTSHOT illustrates how the poker vocabulary has evolved from pop culture—and how poker expressions have made the jump into the mainstream vernacular. The book also demonstrates the ever-changing nature of language, and how the terms of a particular time period often preserve a bit of that era’s history.
