Poker jargon:
- TABLE STAKES - A standard rule whereby during a hand players can only bet the money they have on the table. If the bet to a player is more than the player's stack, that player may call with all his chips and be eligible to win only that portion of the pot he contributed to equally. A side pot is created, for which only the remaining players may compete.
- EDGE - An advantage over an opponent, either specific or subjective.
- MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
- LOOSE - Playing more hands than the norm. Antonym: TIGHT.
- TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
- TURN - The fourth community card in Hold'em.
