Candidate touts poker and peelers

HALIFAX — A would-be candidate for mayor of Halifax aims to make Nova Scotia’s capital the Sin City of the East.

LIVE ONE - The best kind of opponent, a poor player with a lot of money to lose and in a hurry to lose it.
BELLY BUSTER - An inside straight draw. Same as GUTSHOT.
RACE - In tournaments it is sometimes convenient to remove all lower-denomination chips from play, as the remaining players' stacks tend to grow. Small chips are converted to larger chips and any odd chips are "raced off" in the following way: each player with odd chips places them in front of his stack and is dealt one card for each chip. Highest card (rank and suit) takes all the small chips and converts them to higher-denomination chips.
COLD CALL - Calling both a bet and raise at the same time, as opposed to calling a bet then later calling a raise made after the call.
STUD - Any of several poker games in which some of each players' cards are exposed.
RUNNER-RUNNER - A hand made using both of the last two cards dealt.
