What are the poker terms in Black Books Episode "A Little Flutter"? Are they real?

Asked by chromaBYTE (652points) November 18th, 2008

“Dealer’s choice. We’re playing Lebanese Southern Cross. Forty eighty. The anti-fives and twos are wild, no raising before the button. I don’t want any show-boating, no coffee-housing, no auntie’s drawers. Minimum 3 aces to start, minimum bet one ton. Let’s play.”

Do these terms mean anything or are some of them just nonsense terms made up by the writers?
I think I wrote everything correctly. Here’s the clip, in case I didn’t write them down correctly.
