World Poker Live - The World’s Newest Online Poker Room Ready for Launch
World Poker Live (www.worldpokerlive.com), an online poker room, which will soon be releasing mobile phone based software, based in San Jose, Costa Rica is now ready for launch. Unlike many online poker rooms, which are simply “skins” of larger online poker rooms, WPL created their software from scratch, and as such, players can expect a new, unique gaming experience.

Poker talk:
- RAGS - Board cards that are small, not suited and not in sequence, e.g., 9-5-2. When "rags flop", it is unlikely that anyone has a good hand, except possibly the big blind in an unraised pot.
- LAY ODDS - To give favorable odds to an opponent.
- DRAWING DEAD - A draw in which it is impossible to obtain a winning hand for any of a variety of reasons: an opponent's hand is better than whatever you are drawing to, the card(s) that make your hand are out of play, or (in Hold'em) give an opponent a stronger hand even if it makes yours. Frequently used in the past tense, since one rarely knows it at the time.
- KICKER - In hands containing pairs and trips, the highest card not matched. In draw games, sometimes a card kept for deception purposes.
- TAP - In no-limit games, to wager all of one's money in one bet.
- FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
