Casino poker language:
- ROLLED UP - In seven-card stud, being dealt three of a kind in the first three cards.
- HOYLE - Edmund Hoyle (1769-?) was the authoritative source for rules of card games. Hoyle is to card rules as Webster is to word definitions.
- BET - To put money into the pot, pursuant to the rules of the game, thus maintaining a chance of winning the pot.
- CASE - The fourth card of a particular rank, as in "he folded the case 9" when describing where all the 9s were in a hand. Comes from the game of Faro where an employee of the house, called the "case keeper". kept track of the number of each rank of card remaining.
- BOARD - The exposed cards in Hold'em and stud. Also BOARD CARDS.
- NUT / NUTS - The best possible hand of a given class. Not a LOCK unless all cards have been dealt. The "nut flush" is the highest possible flush, but might still lose to, e.g., a full house. Usually used in Hold'em games.
