- FILL - To draw a card that makes a five-card hand (straight, flush, full house, straight flush).
- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".

Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
- BOAT - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
- LOOSE - Playing more hands than the norm. Antonym: TIGHT.
- FLAT CALL - To call a bet. Emphasizes that the caller did not raise.
