ploppy

Semi-derogatory term used by professional gamblers to describe just another sucker at the casino. While professional gamblers are at a blackjack table counting cards, the "ploppies" are the players at the table who the casino loves because they play the game at an average level (or below) and just don't know any better. Sometimes ploppies can get in the way of the professional players.

advantage player at Three Card Poker table: "if only the damn ploppy at third base would leave, then I could take his seat and have a clear view of the dealer's hole card each hand!"
ploppy at the table: "darn, I didn't think the dealer would have that ace!"
