A player who has three sure tricks irrespective of how the cards are played, and is therefore certain to win the pot, is said to have a âcinchâ. In this case there are additional restrictions. If you have a cinch and it is your turn to lead, you must lead your highest trump.

A kinin is any of various structurally related polypeptides, such as bradykinin and kallidin. They are members of the autacoid family. They act locally to induce vasodilation and contraction of smooth muscle. It is a component of the kinin-kallikrein system. Their precursors are kininogens. In botany, plant hormones cytokinins were first called kinins, but the name was changed to avoid confusion. Aspirin inhibits the activation of kallenogen by interfering with the formation of kallikrein enzyme which is essential in the process of activation. 1  Kinins. 2  Kinins at the US National Library of Medicine Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)  3 Kinin at Dorland's Medical Dictionary. 4  Online Medical Dictionary.
