Stover

A sneaky tactic in the board game Settlers of Catan that will make all other players loathe you and question whether they will ever trade with you again. The move involves trading away one commodity (ex. sheep) to all other players. Once obtaining other resources from your opponents, playing a "monopoly" card on the traded away resource, thereby getting an epic multitude of cards.
Performing this play will earn you loathing, anger, spite, and a secret respect from all players who you "stover".

Ahh man! You stovered me!!
Hey, if I trade with you, promise you won't stover me.
I'll only trade if you don't stover.
