Po-faced means having an assumed
solemn, serious, or earnest expression or manner; piously or hypocritically solemn. It can also mean
expressionless or emotionless, perhaps derived from
poker face meaning the ability to avoid showing any reaction to the cards you have been dealt.
When he tries to tell you where you’ve gone wrong, he can be such a
po-faced twat.
I was
playing cards with the lads last night, couldn’t read Charlie at all, totally po-faced.
