BOARD - The exposed cards in Hold'em and stud. Also BOARD CARDS.
FOURTH STREET - In stud poker, the fourth card dealt to each player. Sometimes used to refer to the fourth community card dealt in Hold'em, although the more common term for this is TURN (q.v.).
STUCK - Down a nontrivial amount of money, as in "he's stuck $800".
POCKET ROCKETS - In Hold'em, a pair of aces for hole cards.
DRAWING DEAD - A draw in which it is impossible to obtain a winning hand for any of a variety of reasons: an opponent's hand is better than whatever you are drawing to, the card(s) that make your hand are out of play, or (in Hold'em) give an opponent a stronger hand even if it makes yours. Frequently used in the past tense, since one rarely knows it at the time.
POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
