  • 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.)
  • BLACK - When referring to chips, black usually stands for $100 casino chips. "This guy sits down with a stack of blacks and raises the first bet." Not ALL casinos use black for $100 but that is the common usage.
  • TURN - The fourth community card in Hold'em.
  • REPRESENT - Implying, by one's betting style, that one has a particular hand.
  • FREE CARD - A card dealt after all players checked in a betting round.
