  • FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).

A 1-4-8-16 game allows bets from 1 to 4 in the early rounds, 1 to 8 in the next-to-last round, and 1 to 16 in the last round.
  • LIVE ONE - The best kind of opponent, a poor player with a lot of money to lose and in a hurry to lose it.
