Could you let me know?
Thanks!

:up: That's a good possibility. Another is Rhyming Slang - but it's not a very good 'rhyme': Hudson River/conniver. Perhaps the coiner repaired the rhyme by misspelling 'conniver' as 'conivver'. (This is getting very interesting. Interesting but stupid. )

PS Didn't Paul Hudson play a swindler in The Hustler? And of course there was The Sting.
Thanks all. I think it's hustler. Heard it from the movie called the colour of the money.
Well, The Color of Money starring Tom Cruise is based on The Hustler which starred Paul Newman. Paul Newman also gets to be in The Color of Money. Therefore, I think it's very likely that you heard the word "hustler". It's mentioned several times in the film if I remember rightly.
