Poker lexicon:

STAKE - The amount of a player's BUY-IN, or the amount of money they are willing to play with in a given session. Compare: BANKROLL.
TOP PAIR - In flop games, having a hole card that matches the highest card on the board.
SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
STRING BET - An unethical and often illegal means of raising whereby a player puts a call-size stack of chips into the pot and, after observing the reactions of the players, then goes back to his stack and puts out more, thus raising.
BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
