Poker lingo:
- BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
- WHEEL - A-2-3-4-5. Usually discussed in the context of lowball where it is the best possible hand. Can also refer to a 5-high straight in high games. Also: BICYCLE.
- CRYING CALL - A call made with little chance of ultimately winning, but marginally better than an immediate fold.
- FLOORMAN - The casino representative in charge of the card room or a section of a card room. Arbitrates disputes when unusual events happen.
- IN - Still eligible to win the pot. "I'm in" is often spoken as one adds chips to the pot, calling.
- TOP TWO PAIR - In flop games, having hole cards that make the highest possible two pair hand.
