I nominate "The Beckhams" to represent, for fairly obvious reasons, any situation where you find yourself with Top Pair Top Kicker. It should also be noted of course that despite looking quite nice, it's pretty useless at winning anything major.

Table usage should be along the lines of "That's a damn big raise there matey - gonna have to fold my beckhams!"

Anyone else got any to add?

In friendly games with friends I used to use the following:

K 9 (whatever suit) "woof woof, i've got dogs"

J 5 (clubs or spades) "blame it on the boogie" - with reference to jackson 5

9 5 (whatever suit) used to whistle the tune along to "9 til 5" by dolly parton

can't think of anymore i used to use at the moment!

A 50/50: A David Williams, you dont know which way it will swing.

A gut shot: Jane Beale.

Runner runner: (The Film) 'Cool Runnings'. Looks like a good idea at the time, but it aint never going to happen!

Small Pair: An Alex Ross

A big pair: Jordon (obv!)

Flush Draw: England football team. Rich football playing twats who cant draw at best!

Straight Draw: England Cricket team. If they bowled straight they might actually win something!

Jane Beale, is Ian Beales wife... Jane got shot in the stomach and can no longer have any kids....

Hence the 'Gut Shot'... When it does hit, it causes fuck loads of damage! LOL
