Casino poker language:
- WIRED [PAIR] - A pair in the hole. In 5-card stud, a door card that pairs the hole card.
- COLD CALL - Calling both a bet and raise at the same time, as opposed to calling a bet then later calling a raise made after the call.
- WHITE BLACKBIRD - A hand so astonishingly rare as to be unworthy of the opponents' consideration, e.g., being dealt a pat royal flush in 5-card draw.
- MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
- LIVE [CARD] - In Stud, a card probably not held by other players.
- HOOK - A Jack. So named because the "J" resembles a hook.
