I see this all the time on online poker now. It's every British players insult of choice but means nothing to us Americans when we haven't a clue. What does it mean? It's becoming really trendy now , I see it on a ton of forums too.

I see that online a lot... usually punks that get all bent out of shape in a low limit game if you chase a hand all the way to the river and then hit it.
Just once, I'd like to get a hammer (7-2 boat), but I only play a 7/2 on the big blind. If I do get it, it'll be as exciting as a straight flush, IMHO. :)

It is sometimes mockingly redefined as one of several backronyms, including "Council Housed And Violent", "Council Housed And Vile", "Council House Assault & Violence", "Council House Associated Vermin", "Council House Adolescent Violence" and "Council House Adidas Victim" — although there is no etymological basis for these terms. (In the large majority of cases, suggested derivations of words from acronyms are erroneous).

Some bad language in this site, but I feel a public sense of duty to post it so anyone visiting the UK can avoid the worst chav hotspots.

Anyone who would call someone else a chav when losing at poker is probably a chav themselves.
Easy description of a chav: White trash.

That may be true but Chavism is nothing to do with social class per se; there are plenty of middle class scumbags out here who conform to the stereotype.

Uk chaps, ever noticed how wierd it is that most Chavs, drink too much, smoke too much, probably do drugs and are generaly overweight or blurdy unhealthy looking, yet only wear sports gear!!!!! :rolleyes: Still trying to figure that one out!!!
