The hand was called: Fold (don't show).
P.S. Is "fold" related to "faldage"?

"Fold" as in "sheepfold" is. "Fold" as in "withdraw from a game" is not.

Is this the first time a round has been cancelled for this reason, or is it a not-infrequent occurrence that has just happened yataghan?
well, there was this:
tetrapyloctomy was.. a hogwash word at one point, but that round was cancelled because too many people used the right answer as their definition.
..and I think poshlost was proposed but never got off the ground. there were probably others.
NOTE: round 61 is dead; long live round 61.

b.a headwrap used by men of the Limpoho tribes in South Africa
c. a kind of agrarian reform through which serfs could be rewarded for yearly increases in production
d. a bowman
e. an instrument for pounding or braying substances in a mortar; a pestle
f.a monster found on or below the 37th Level of the Dungeons of Moria [not nearly as powerful as the Balrog, though]
g. N. A structure, usually of stone, used to control the flow of water from wells and springs.

Thanks Bingley. I'd have had trouble deciding on a definition. All the definitions sound so plausible,,, well, except for the Dungeon of Moria one. I would have assumed that the [not nearly as powerful as the Balrog, though] was a "tell". Like a kiddy that keeps babbling on when he's trying to get away with something.
