Lost in Translation

"How do you say 'All-in' in French?" asked one young British player in today's field.

"Tapis," the dealer replied, pronounced 'tah-pē'.

We asked our French colleagues about the word, and they explained that it's actually three words in one: all, push and felt. Interestingly enough, while 'tapis' may serve as the French translation, many of the locals simply prefer to go with "All-in."
