It's always a pleasure to give your boss some sense for reality back. That keeps him grounded and he always appreciates[^] it.
It's not like something like this ever happened to me. 
Edit: Rodney really ist honest today...[^]

Can anyone explain in layman terms what does "double down" means when news says " XYZ has doubled down from the last allegation he made"?
I assume that it means backing down or recalling the earlier statement or rhetoric ?

No, it means exactly the opposite.

Quote: It seems the original meaning comes from playing cards. Kinda like double or nothing.
Yep - Blackjack in fact (Vingt-et-un, Twenty-One, Pontoon or any of the other names it's known by) - Double Down In Blackjack & When To Use It![^]

You obviously don't play blackjack.

I would prefer a game where you can look at your cards and then bid for the honor of taking on the other two players, like this one.[^]

Never heard of that game. I am not a big card player myself. I have tried my hands on blackjack in casinos just for fun.

Skat is not played for gambling, it's more like a game you go to play in a pub over a few mugs of beer. If at all, it's only played for small amounts of money and often the players collect all 'profits' and use the money for a dinner or a trip once a year.

Ok, so its more like plenty of games we played around at home just for fun. Or to decide who would make tea.

Not quite. It's more for an entire evening than a quick single game, especially because there are several official and even more unofficial variants which can be played, depending on what the player who wins the bidding decides to play.

I would rather have it in Germany. Beers don't like to travel AFAIK.
These days our gangs favorite is King's from Goa. It is now available in few other cities as well.

Ok, good luck then. Don't get frustrated with the game rules, like the whole bidding stuff. At first it looks a little arcane, but after a while you can do it in your sleep.

It means to double the effort to do something IMO, nothing to do with backing down.
--edit--
OK, apparently it means to double ones bet: double down - Wiktionary[^]
