25 U.S. cities to compete in PokerBowl

What do you get when you combine the NFL with the World Series of Poker? A team style variation of Texas Hold’em, called the PokerBowl.

HOOK - A Jack. So named because the "J" resembles a hook.
FREEROLL - [1] A poker tournament that does not charge a buy-in fee; players must earn buy-in credits through previous play at the same establishment. [2] Having a lock on part of a pot (sure to win a greater fraction of the pot than one is betting) and playing to win more or all of it.
STUCK - Down a nontrivial amount of money, as in "he's stuck $800".
SMALL BLIND - In games with two blinds the first blind is the SMALL BLIND because it is usually one-half (or less) the second or large blind.
SEAT POSITION - The actual seat a player has, normally numbered sequentially starting with 1 as the first seat to dealer's left. Not to be confused with POSITION in a particular pot. Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
MANIAC - A player who bets, raises and reraises without regard to the quality of his hand. Most often found in flop games.
