Poker argot:
- FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
- SEVENTH STREET - The seventh card dealt in 7-card stud.
- RIVER - The last card dealt in a hand of stud or Hold'em.
- PASS - Opposite of bet. To check, if checked to. To fold, if bet to.
- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".
- CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
