Poker slang:
- ROYAL FLUSH - An ace-high straight flush, the best possible hand in regular poker.
- DRAW OUT - To catch a card that improves your situation from a losing hand to a winning hand, especially when you beat someone holding a hand that usually figures to win.
- QUALIFIER - A minimum standard that a hand must meet in order to win. Usually applied to the lowball side of a high-low split pot.
- LEAK - To show one's hole cards (often unknowingly).
- BOAT - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
- ACTION - Money that is being bet. "NO ACTION" means a hand or game has few bettors and fewer raisers. "Gimme some action" is ostensibly a plea for calls and raises.
