Poker slang:
- TAP - In no-limit games, to wager all of one's money in one bet.
- MAIN POT - The main pot, as related to one or more side pots, when there are one or more all-in player(s). The main pot is the one in which all active players participate.
- CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
- BACK DOOR - Applies to a hand that was made in the last card or two, specifically not a hand the player was originally planning on having. Most often applied to straights and flushes.
- TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
