- SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
- POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
- QUALIFIER - A minimum standard that a hand must meet in order to win. Usually applied to the lowball side of a high-low split pot.
- FOURTH STREET - In stud poker, the fourth card dealt to each player. Sometimes used to refer to the fourth community card dealt in Hold'em, although the more common term for this is TURN (q.v.).
- TRIPS - Three of a kind. In Hold'em the term SET is used when two of the three cards are hole cards.
