limpers
Those who hobble
Limpers is the plural of limper—one who limps, walking with an uneven gait due to injury or disability.
The word appears occasionally in poker slang, where a limper is a player who enters a pot by merely calling the minimum bet rather than raising: Three limpers saw the flop before anyone showed aggression.
