Poker argot:
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
- ACTION - Money that is being bet. "NO ACTION" means a hand or game has few bettors and fewer raisers. "Gimme some action" is ostensibly a plea for calls and raises.
- BRODERICK CRAWFORD - In Hold'em, hole cards of 10-4. From the 1950s TV series "Highway Patrol", starring Broderick Crawford.
- DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
- FULL OF - Describes a full house. "Fives full of queens" is 5-5-5-Q-Q.
- PASS - Opposite of bet. To check, if checked to. To fold, if bet to.
