In a card game, when no cards to come can could give a player the best hand, he is drawing dead.
"I can't believe you caught that flush on the turn because now I'm drawing dead."
In poker, someone already holds a hand that will beat the highest hand you can possibly make.
"He got quads on fourth street; I was drawing dead."
