Pushing all the cards in the table
Posted: August 19, 2024 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentThere was a text exchange about Kamala Harris being nominated as the Democratic candidate for President after Biden decided not to run. A Republican in the conversation said the Democrats were “pushing all the cards in the table”. This is a mashup of “put all (one’s) cards on the table” (to reveal everything) and “pushing the chips all in” (betting all your chips on a poker hand). Both essentially mean going all out for something, whether it is information or a bet. Kudos to Bruce Ryan for spotting this one and sending it in.
