Poker argot:
- ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
- RUSH - A winning streak. Also "ON A RUSH".
- OVERCALL - To call a bet after one or more players already called.
- FIXED LIMIT - A betting structure where the amount of each bet is a specific fixed quantity. Usually specified as A-B, where A is the amount to bet in the first few betting rounds and B (larger than A) is the amount bet in the later rounds. Related terms: FLAT LIMIT, NO LIMIT, POT LIMIT, SPREAD LIMIT.
- LOOSE - Playing more hands than the norm. Antonym: TIGHT.
- MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
