潦倒出局
电视里放着牌局,有一句话说筹码没全输光就还没出局;down and out 在这里指输到彻底出局,讲的是牌桌规则。
You're never down and out until your chips are all gone.Rounders · 1998 — 第 15 / 26 章 · 3'01" · B2
佩特拉登门,先和迈克看陈的牌局,话锋一转落到账上:两千块欠款明天满一周,虫虫又把账滚到近七千。run someone up(让某人欠账累积)说账越滚越大,cut him off(停止给他赊账)是干脆断供。朋友借钱、替人担保时用得上。
佩特拉登门,两人先对着电视上的1988年世界扑克大赛聊起陈的定力,随后话转到账上:切斯特菲尔德的第一笔两千块欠款明天满一周,虫虫又把账滚到近七千。on the line 是「赊账欠着」,run someone up 是「让某人欠账累积」,cut him off 是「停止给他赊账」。有人说自己手头只有一千、才刚回来,临走约在俱乐部见。谈朋友借钱、合租垫付、替人担保时,这些说法比只说「欠钱」更具体。
这场戏看什么
留意这几个短语

本章短语
让某人欠账累积push someone's debt higher
有人把虫虫的欠账报给迈克,一句 run someone up 说得平直,数字却压人;这句是在算账,不是在夸人。
The repairs ran me up another two hundred dollars.修车又让我多欠了两百美元。

潦倒出局
电视里放着牌局,有一句话说筹码没全输光就还没出局;down and out 在这里指输到彻底出局,讲的是牌桌规则。
You're never down and out until your chips are all gone.down and 快说时常黏成一团,and 只留轻轻 n
You're never down and out until your chips are all gone.有一阵子
I haven't seen the place in a while.看上去差不多
Looks about the same.……之类的
- You want some scotch or something? - No, I'm fine.or 在快语流里很轻,scotch 直接滑向 something
- You want some scotch or something? - No, I'm fine.最强顺子
电视上放到1988年世界扑克大赛,有人盯着陈的牌拆解这手 nut straight,语气里带着佩服。
Flops the nut straight and has the discipline to wait him out.耐心等到对方撑不住
Flops the nut straight and has the discipline to wait him out.对着牌诈唬 bluff 是诈唬,不是吹牛聊天
He knows Seidel's gonna bluff at it.宾语从句:knows 后省略 that,Seidel's 等于 Seidel is,整句是“他知道塞德尔要诈唬”。
He knows Seidel's gonna bluff at it.going to 的口语——日常口语,正式书写别用
He knows Seidel's gonna bluff at it.诱人上钩
同一手牌里,陈故意放慢动作引对手下注;说话的人用 sucker someone in 点破这是设套,不是犹豫。
Chan is trying to sucker him in by taking his time.慢慢来、故意拖时间
Chan is trying to sucker him in by taking his time.混蛋(粗俗)——极粗俗,但这里是佩服的感叹,不是骂人;正式场合别用
Look at the control. Look at that fuck.一路过牌不下注 check 是扑克过牌,不是检查
He knows his man well enough to check it all the way...enough to 结构:enough 后接不定式表结果:他太了解对手,所以能一路过牌。
He knows his man well enough to check it all the way...中计上钩
Will Eric Seidel fall for the bait?把筹码全押上
Yes, he's going all in and Chan has him.被打懵、不知道怎么回事
- Johnny Chan, the master. - Poor Seidel. Kid doesn't know what hit him.那种滋味
Yeah, I know what that feels like.像腹部中枪般难受——夸张自嘲,牌桌或熟人之间;正式安慰别用
You feel gut-shot. Fuck it. You didn't come here to talk about this.省略关系词:two thousand 后省 that/which;you owe... 是定语从句,修饰那两千。
The first two thousand you owe the Chesterfield.有点——朋友闲聊可用,写作中改 somewhat
- Oh. Worm. - Yes, it's kinda weird.赊账欠着 不是“在电话线上”,这里指赊账
He'd just won eight grand. Why go on the line behind another two?过去完成时:'d 是 had;先赢八千,后去欠债,过去完成时点明先后。
He'd just won eight grand. Why go on the line behind another two?一千美元——赌桌和熟人闲聊,正式财务场合说 thousand
He'd just won eight grand. Why go on the line behind another two?把筹码兑成现金
Yeah, yeah, he comes in after you leave, sits for like another 20 more minutes, cashes out for the full amount.经常露面、常来
But, uh, Worm's been around plenty.让某人欠账累积
有人把虫虫的欠账报给迈克,一句 run someone up 说得平直,数字却压人;这句是在算账,不是在夸人。
He's run you up just under seven grand.帮我个忙
Well, do me a favor and just put him on his own.停止给他赊账
有人要求把虫虫单独立账,随后一句 Yeah, cut him off 把话说清楚:别再让他赊账。
- Yeah? - Yeah, cut him off.him 的 h 常被吞掉,cut 和 off 夹着轻轻 im
- Yeah? - Yeah, cut him off.一千——很随意的口语,正式场合用 thousand
I got a thou. And that's, you know...it 在 easy 前轻轻弹过,两个词黏着走
- Thanks for making it easy, Mike. - Oh, yeah, yeah.You're never down and out until your chips are all gone.只要筹码还没输光,你就没到山穷水尽。 把牌桌规则说成人生翻盘线,短句有节奏,适合失意时自我打气。
It's like a locomotive running through your stomach.就像一台火车头从你胃里碾过去。 用巨大机械写紧张,画面狠、节奏长,比 I'm nervous 更有身体感。
You feel gut-shot. Fuck it. You didn't come here to talk about this.你像腹部中枪一样难受。管他呢。你来这儿不是为了聊这个。 先用中枪般的比喻压住情绪,再用一句硬话把话题拉回;短促、带脏话,是场面转折。
指欠账被一点点累积起来。台词里 He's run you up just under seven grand,说的就是账已经堆到接近七千。
可以说 cut him off。台词里有人要求 cut him off,就是把对方的赊账额度停掉,不再让他挂账。
台词说 You're never down and out until your chips are all gone,意思是筹码没全输光就还没潦倒出局;down and out 可指走投无路。
sucker 作名词是「容易上当的人」,但台词里是动词 sucker someone in,指诱人上钩:Chan is trying to sucker him in by taking his time,说的是靠拖时间把对手引进套里。
