  • WALK - A pot won by the last blind when no one opens.
  • NICKEL - Five dollars, usually represented by a red casino check.
  • FLAT CALL - To call a bet. Emphasizes that the caller did not raise.
  • PAT HAND - In draw poker, a hand that does not need any more cards. Specifically, a straight, flush, full house or straight flush. One might bluff and represent a pat hand but actually hold something else.
  • BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
  • WIRED [PAIR] - A pair in the hole. In 5-card stud, a door card that pairs the hole card.
