- OFFSUIT - Not of the same suit. "I held A-Q offsuit" or "The flop was 10-6-2 offsuit". When speaking of 5 or more cards, not all/ of the same suit, i.e., no flush, as in "button had A-K-10-8-7 offsuit."
- EDGE - An advantage over an opponent, either specific or subjective.
- REPRESENT - Implying, by one's betting style, that one has a particular hand.
- POCKET PAIR - Generic Hold'em term for 2 hole cards of the same rank.
