Casino poker language:

• S&M - Sklansky & Malmuth. Generally refers to the ideas and algorithms published by these two authors. When used in a 7-card stud context, often refers to "7 Card Stud For Advanced Players", and when used in a Hold'em context, often refers to "Texas Hold'em For Advanced Players".
• BOARD - The exposed cards in Hold'em and stud. Also BOARD CARDS.
• OPENERS - Cards in a hand that qualify a player to open the betting.
• STEAM - Playing wildly, calling and raising a lot, because one is upset. Compare: ON TILT.
• IMPLIED ODDS - A refinement to POT ODDS which includes money not yet in the pot. Considers the potential extra bets and winnings made when a player forms a very good hand.
• BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
