Poker argot:
- 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.".
- HOLE CARDS - In Stud and Hold'em, the face-down cards dealt to each player.
- NO-LIMIT POKER - A game where there is no maximum bet; a player can wager any amount (perhaps above some minimum) up to whatever money is on the table in front of him.
- STEAM - Playing wildly, calling and raising a lot, because one is upset. Compare: ON TILT.
- WHEEL - A-2-3-4-5. Usually discussed in the context of lowball where it is the best possible hand. Can also refer to a 5-high straight in high games. Also: BICYCLE.
- READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
