Poker slang:
- POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
- WIRED [PAIR] - A pair in the hole. In 5-card stud, a door card that pairs the hole card.
- 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.)
- FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
- POT LIMIT - A game where the maximum bet is determined by the size of the pot at the time. Note that a player wanting to raise first calls the bet, then totals the pot to determine the maximum amount he can raise.
- THIRD STREET - In Stud, the third card dealt to each player.
