So what would a good example be of its use and meaning in a poker context? I've read these definitions but none of them relate to its meaning when used in poker.

I've always understood it as "wow, you've got some nerve pulling that play on me in that spot, but it worked, note taken". IE...I didn't expect that.

Not really a compliment but not a big put-down, more "I'm going to keep my eye on you".

I have always defined it as somewhat of a smart alec comment someone makes toward you. They are being "cheeky"

Never heard used any where here in the USA. If it is England phrase, you would think Will Kassouf "Like a Boss" would used it or been told he was cheeky.
