  • TOP TWO PAIR - In flop games, having hole cards that make the highest possible two pair hand.
  • IN - Still eligible to win the pot. "I'm in" is often spoken as one adds chips to the pot, calling.
  • FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.

Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
  • EXPECTATION - The long-run [dis-]advantage of a given situation, specifically without reference to any particular outcome. I.e., what you figure to win [lose] on average after a large number of repetitions of the same situation.
