There ( poker )
1) Having made a hand; used among thieves, in particular players
who cheat by signaling each other the contents of the hands
of opponents. "He's there," a seemingly innocent remark,
might be an announcement by one such scammer to his partner
that the person they're trying to beat (and whose hand the former
caught a glimpse of) has made his hand or has a hand better
than the one of the second scammer.
2) Making the hand, or catching the required card. "How
come it's never there?" is an oft-heard remark by a self-pitying
player who thinks he never makes a hand when it counts.
