Back into( poker )
1) Win a pot unexpectedly or by default. For example, in a lowball
game, John drew three cards and caught K-Q-J. He passed after
the draw, planning to fold if anyone bet.
The three one-card draws also passed,
all having paired and all afraid to bet, and John backed into
the pot.
2) End up with a hand other than the one you were drawing to.
For example, in seven-card stud, start with two pair on the
first four cards and end up with a flush.
