Poker dictionary:
- CARDS SPEAK - Winner(s) of the hand are determined by turning their cards face up, the best hand(s) wins (no declaration).
- 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.
- CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
- BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
- ROLLED UP - In seven-card stud, being dealt three of a kind in the first three cards.
- FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
