Poker glossary:
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- OVER - A term used in describing two pair or a full house. "Kings over tens" means two pair, kings and tens. "Jacks over", also "Jacks up" describes a hand that is two pair: Jacks with an unspecified lower pair. Also used to describe a full house, distinguishing the three of a kind from the pair. The hand J-J-J-A-A could be described as "Full house, Jacks over Aces".
- HIGH-LOW SPLIT - Forms of poker in which the pot is split between the best hand and best lowball hand.
- RACE - In tournaments it is sometimes convenient to remove all lower-denomination chips from play, as the remaining players' stacks tend to grow. Small chips are converted to larger chips and any odd chips are "raced off" in the following way: each player with odd chips places them in front of his stack and is dealt one card for each chip. Highest card (rank and suit) takes all the small chips and converts them to higher-denomination chips.
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
- JOKER - A 53rd card in the deck, distinct from the others, used as a wild card or as a BUG.
