What does HOLED mean in Scrabble?
verb
To have made a hole in something, or to have put a ball into a hole.
Two lives, and both common. A boat holed below the waterline is the shipping sense and the older one; a golfer who holed a long putt is the newer and now the more frequent. The phrase holed up belongs to neither — that is hiding, and it comes from the animal in its burrow.
