Contesto (during poker and or other betting card games):

Molte volte mi è accaduto di telefonargli alle sette del mattino per comunicargli qualche sviluppo importante dai fronti di guerra, mentre i miei amici erano ancora al tavolo a farsi dei bluffs o a battere di nove.

Molte Grazie,

Barbara

to be dealt a natural

In Baccarat if a player is dealt a two card total of eight or nine it is known as a natural. A natural is an automatic winner. However, a natural nine will beat a natural eight as nine is the higher number.
