my first language is french...
Never heard of "poquer"
It's a spanish word.
It is not in my french dictionary
how accurate is this post?

I've read a similar article about the origins, and he's right about "poquer" being French. Probably an archaic term or proper name that didn't find it's way into the dictionary...
