UK Poker Regulation Welcomed by Ladbrokes Poker
Ladbrokes is a gambling outfit out of the United Kingdom that has recently added its voice to many others in criticizing the recent legislation changes in America that affect the online gambling world. Once the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act was passed, it affected business not only in the United States but in the United Kingdom and the rest of the world. European gaming forces have come out against the US UIGEA, calling it prohibition and saying that it can’t halt the gambling business practices of other nations…

- SPLIT [OPENERS] - In draw poker, to discard one or more openers, usually to draw to a straight or flush. Normally requires the opener to declare the act and retain the discards so that the act of opening can later be validated.
- PAT HAND - In draw poker, a hand that does not need any more cards. Specifically, a straight, flush, full house or straight flush. One might bluff and represent a pat hand but actually hold something else.
- STAND OFF - To call a raise. "Opener raises, I stand off".
- FREE CARD - A card dealt after all players checked in a betting round.
- BARN - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
- RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
