Line 32:
* [[Buffy-Speak]]: It's Strong Bad. What did you expect?
* [[Butt Monkey]]:
** Artie Flopshark, deceased, who according to Max was beaten up for various perceived offenses including collecting money for a charity marathon, teaching the "nonexistent" variant [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_card_poker:Community card poker#Omaha_hold_Omaha hold .27em |Omaha]], and winning a poker tournament in an attempt to pay off his mortgage. This may have something to do with the "Deceased."
** If Max wins against you in 1v1 poker, he'll say it reminds him of the time Flopshark won against Flint Paper under similar circumstances. Paper apparently responded by killing Flopshark in cold blood.
** Also, if your win/loss record has more losses than wins, there is a chance that game itself will call you "Artie Flopshark, Deceased".
Line 61:
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: In-universe: Strong Bad says if he was in ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]'', he'd watch Heavy get "grenaded by eight-year-olds." ''[[Team Fortress Classic (Video Game)|Team Fortress Classic]]'' had grenades, but its sequel does not (with the exception of one of Soldier's taunt kills, and possibly the Demoman's primary weapons, but that would be giving Strong Bad too much credit).
* [[Downloadable Content]]: The rare case of a game supplying DLC for ''another'' game. Character will ante up items for use in ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]''.
* [[Early -Bird Cameo]]: Trixie Trotter appears in the intro cutscene, roughly three months before her appearance in [[Back to The Future]] The Game, episode 2.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFAMTBxJ8yM The Heavy's story about the Engineer.] Given how the Heavy is telling this to three extreme sociopaths, their disgust means ''a lot.''

Line 112:
** Tycho's an interesting case, as he knows that the ''other'' characters are from games. He owns Team Fortress 2, and mentions to the Heavy how long the game's been out on Steam.
* [[Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls|Most Fan-Artists Are Girls]]: Despite Tycho asking the Player if they're going to be as immature as Gabe and show him his balls, and the Heavy constantly referring to the player as "little man," most art made by fans shows the player as a female. Lampshaded in [http://slushee-duck.deviantart.com/art/We-we-can-t-do-that-188397448 this fan drawing].
* [[Mythology Gag]]: Sometimes, upon losing badly on a hand, the Heavy may say, "[[What Is This Feeling?|I do not understand this... ]]''[[What Is This Feeling?|burning ]]''[[What Is This Feeling?|I feel.]]" One of the Heavy's domination lines in ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]'' is, "The burning you feel? It is ''shame.''"
* [[Noodle Incident]]:
** Tycho: "A pot like that could buy a little ''Giraffe time''." The [[Buffy-Speak|noodliness]] decreases when one considers [http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/1/18/ Exhibit A].
Line 122:
*** Which is exactly what the subtitles say (Tycho's swearing is always ****'d out, whether censors are on or off).
* [[Oh Crap]]: The players are caught ''completely'' off guard if you raise unbelievably high.
* [[Go -Karting With Bowser|Playing Poker With The Heavy]]:
** While the Heavy isn't really a ''villain'', playing poker is a lot more casual than [[Career Killers|his day job]].
** Really, all of the characters aside from Strong Bad have committed murder, and [http://hrwiki.org/wiki/Crimes_Committed_by_Strong_Bad#Attempted_Murder even he attempted murder]. Unsuccessfully, but still.
Line 130:
* [[Psychotic Smirk]]: Tycho, especially when he loses a hand.
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Strong Bad, Tycho, and the Heavy have a discussion about favorite drinks. Strong Bad makes fun of Tycho for liking gin fizzes, and the Heavy turns out to like peach bellinis.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Tycho's eyes glow red a bit when delivering this line in the trailer.
{{quote| "Face down in front of me, is the card beast of your worst poker nightmares... just something to consider."}}
* [[Russian Humor]]: The Heavy's "Engineer Story" is a failed attempt at this, it seems.
Line 144:
*** Strong Bad admits he wouldn't mind if King of Town was killed, however.
* [[Shaggy Frog Story]]: When Tycho asks Max where he learned to play cards, Max starts recounting an adventure in Atlantic City, but by the time he finishes the anecdote he's forgotten there was a question he was supposed to answer.
* [[Shoot Him! He Has a Wallet!]]: If Tycho drops out first, he starts [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khkmoTLmHCE&playnext=1&list=PL13FB3CA13C3E35FB pulling something out of his pocket]. The other three characters aim their weapons at him, only for Tycho to exclaim that it is a granola bar.
{{quote| '''Heavy:''' Oh. ''(puts weapon away)''<br />
'''Max:''' Whoopsie. ''(throws weapon over shoulder)''<br />
Line 156:
* [[Slasher Smile]]: When you get into a one-on-one situation with Tycho and he has a decently good amount of money. His smile rivals Dr. Giggles.
* [[Smarter Than You Look|Smarter than Boolet]]:
** The Heavy has multiple lines asking the characters about their respective educations. Tycho plays it off with a lame D&D joke, Max admits he never went to college, and Tiny Heavy... well. Not only that, but he also chats with Tycho about his favorite book (Tsar Hunger by [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonid_Andreyev:Leonid Andreyev|Leonid Andreyev]]), because get this - he has a [[Holy Shit Quotient|Ph.D. in Russian Literature. That's Dr. Heavy Weapons Guy to you]]!
** Probably a reference to how the Russian version of Meet the Heavy made him sound much more sophisticated than the original, implying that he only sounds like a dumbbell because of his [[Eloquent in My Native Tongue|relatively poor English]].
* [[Smug Snake]]: Tycho, so very much. Also, Strong Bad, to a lesser extent.
