How to stop master betting

Yesterday, on Ask.com, someone searched for "i need help to stop mastyrbating i have been doing it for 2 years" and found Poker Grub.

After years of being online, the blog has finally achieved its goal of being the #3 site for misspelled masturbating.

Sorry, guy, except for the hairy palms and blindness, you're on your own.

Working in gaming, we were trying to come up with an all-encompassing word for a complete bet. In pai gow ("PAI GOW!" as grubette would say while throwing up her hands) there's generally a fortune bet/envy bonus, which is a side bet you can make in addition to your bet hand. This gets you something extra for a straight or better (all 7 cards) plus if another player gets quads or better, you share in their fortune.

That's a long way to say, what do you call the combined pai gow bet plus the side bet?

"Master Bet" was considered.

And then tossed.

Are you going to master bet? How many times did you master bet today? I can't master bet anymore because I'm married.
