hah! yeah, I think it's just "versenden mir das Sherbert" aber ich kann falsch sein!

[KampfHase]

Well, it would be: "Schick mir Sherbert!"

Now and again, I find myself wondering if German is sometimes too complicated a language for poker terms and proverbs. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

For example: If you just wanted to say "call" in German, you'd have to say: "Ich gehe mit" oder "Ich halte (die Wette)" - it's just less effort to say this in English "I call" or just "Call". [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[TheChad]

could you say simply "Halte" and have them understand?

[KampfHase]

Yeah, probably. Sounds wierd though. I'll stick with "call". [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

My homegame vocabulary:

"geb weiter" = "check"
"geh mit" = "call"
"bin draußen" = "fold"
"fuffzich" = "I bet / raise to fifty"

[TheChad]
