Albanian language (sh) and Pass for a Prop - Poker (gambling)


Albanian language (sh)




Indo-European language spoken by five to six million people in Albania, Kosovo in Serbia and Montenegro, western Macedonia, and enclaves elsewhere, including southern Italy and southern Greece.

There are two main dialect groups, Gheg (Geg) in the north, including Kosovo and Macedonia, and Tosk in the south. Albanian is the only extant representative of a distinct branch of Indo-European, whose pre-Roman Balkan ancestry is uncertain. The earliest written attestation is from the 15th century, though a standard orthography using the Latin alphabet was not adopted until 1909. The core vocabulary of Albanian is native, though in the course of its history it has absorbed many loanwords from Greek, Latin, Balkan Romance Languages (see Romanian), Slavic Languages, and Turkish.


Pass for a Prop - Poker (gambling)


In a no-limit lowball game, when a player is faced with a raise, and wants to gamble alone with the raiser, usually involving a proposition like two-for-one, but there are Other players to act after the player, in some clubs the player is permitted to pass for a prop, and then, if the Other players do not call the bet, can negotiate a proposition with the raiser. If any Other player calls the bet, usually the player who so passed is required to drop; furthermore, if the raiser does not wish to accept the proposition, the passer must also drop. For example, in a $4-to-go no-limit lowball game, Harry opens with A-joker-2-K-K. Sally and Bob call. Walt raises $35. Harry does not fold, nor does he call the raise. Instead he says, "Pass for a prop." Sally and Bob now both fold, and Harry tosses the two kings, saying, "Two-for-one?" Walt throws a card among the discards, and says, "You' re on." (Walt can, of course, also offer a counter proposition. He may say, "For all of them," and stick his whole stack in, which means, essentially, "I' ll break this hand, but only if we both put all our chips in the pot." At this point, either Harry agrees, or dumps his hand.)
