Short poker
1) Low on funds. 2) Shy of a complete bet. "Who's short
in the pot?" implies that someone has not put in a full
bet. "He's short $10" means that he was not able to
call the full bet, and implies that a side pot will be generated.
3) Be unable to pay time due to having insufficient chips (in
respect to a certain cutoff point established by the house,
usually equal to only a few chips, as for example less than
$4 in a game with a $20 buy-in). 4) Not put the full amount
of the bet in the pot. "Who shorted the pot?"
