Like in poker, Spain hold the aces

AFTER watching all the poker programmes on Austrian and Swiss TV, wish I was playing poker instead. Well, at least, you live and die by your sword. The other day, I misplaced my faith in Russia and they took me to the cleaners.

Poker talk:

REBUY - [1] To purchase additional chips after an initial buy-in, usually after losing most or all of the previous buy-in. This term is most often used in certain tournaments where if one loses all one's chips, or falls below a certain minimum chip level, for an additional sum of money one can purchase a fixed amount of additional tournament chips. Usually there is a time limit (The "REBUY PERIOD") as to how long rebuys are allowed. [2] The additional chips "rebought" in tournament play.
FAVORITE - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that figures to be the winner. Ant: UNDERDOG.
BRODERICK CRAWFORD - In Hold'em, hole cards of 10-4. From the 1950s TV series "Highway Patrol", starring Broderick Crawford.
ON THE COME - A situation where the player does not have a complete hand but hopes to make one if the right cards come up.
TABLE STAKES - A standard rule whereby during a hand players can only bet the money they have on the table. If the bet to a player is more than the player's stack, that player may call with all his chips and be eligible to win only that portion of the pot he contributed to equally. A side pot is created, for which only the remaining players may compete.
STEAM - Playing wildly, calling and raising a lot, because one is upset. Compare: ON TILT.
