  • DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
  • RAKE - Money taken from each pot and given to the house in return for hosting the game. Usually a percentage of the pot (5%-10%) up to some maximum amount.
  • STUCK - Down a nontrivial amount of money, as in "he's stuck $800".
  • DRAWING DEAD - A draw in which it is impossible to obtain a winning hand for any of a variety of reasons: an opponent's hand is better than whatever you are drawing to, the card(s) that make your hand are out of play, or (in Hold'em) give an opponent a stronger hand even if it makes yours. Frequently used in the past tense, since one rarely knows it at the time.
  • TOP TWO PAIR - In flop games, having hole cards that make the highest possible two pair hand.
