I was reluctant to join the loaded table of high rollers playing poker as I was not sure if I could afford to lose so much money at once.
Start tacking to remember the definition of "loaded" the next time you hear it or read it.

The word ‘loaded‘ comes from the Middle English word ‘lode,‘ meaning a way or course along which goods are carried, or to carry goods. The word ‘load‘ is derived from the Old English word ‘lad,‘ meaning baggage or burden. The suffix ‘-ed‘ is added to make it an adjective, meaning ‘carrying a heavy load‘ or ‘wealthy with possessions.‘
