Nonagon

It's time for another neo neo - nonagon. Although that's an actual word, and means a nine-sided figure, I'm going to assign it a new meaning when used in a poker context. A nonagon in poker is what has befallen you when you were dealt pocket nines, got all your chips in the middle, and hit the rail. I suffered a nonagon on my final hand of last night's session. The reason I shoved was that I hit a set of nines on the flop. The reason I hit the rail was that my opponent rivered a straight. I was more than an 80% favorite after the turn, but it wasn't meant to be. The one bright spot? At least I didn't register another ofer :-)
