  • BET - To put money into the pot, pursuant to the rules of the game, thus maintaining a chance of winning the pot.

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.
  • ON THE COME - A situation where the player does not have a complete hand but hopes to make one if the right cards come up.
  • MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
  • STAKE - The amount of a player's BUY-IN, or the amount of money they are willing to play with in a given session. Compare: BANKROLL.
