Poker jargon:

• S&M - Sklansky & Malmuth. Generally refers to the ideas and algorithms published by these two authors. When used in a 7-card stud context, often refers to "7 Card Stud For Advanced Players", and when used in a Hold'em context, often refers to "Texas Hold'em For Advanced Players".
• BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
• SPLIT [THE POT] - To split the pot between two or more players. Related term: QUARTER.
• BLANK - Used in describing stud and Hold'em games. Refers to a dealt card that does not offer any value; stating the actual rank and suit would detract from a description of the hand. "The last card was a blank.".
• LITTLE SLICK - In Hold'em, hole cards of A-2, suited or not.
• BICYCLE - The best possible low hand: A-2-3-4-5. More common term: WHEEL.
