Poker argot:
- TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
- QUALIFIER - A minimum standard that a hand must meet in order to win. Usually applied to the lowball side of a high-low split pot.
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- STRAIGHT FLUSH - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence and the same suit.
- FULL OF - Describes a full house. "Fives full of queens" is 5-5-5-Q-Q.
- ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
