Poker slang:
- WALK - A pot won by the last blind when no one opens.
- POT ODDS - The amount of money in the pot divided by the amount of money you must bet in order to call. Often used to determine if a pot offers enough reward to play on the come.
- LIVE [CARD] - In Stud, a card probably not held by other players.
- CHECK RAISE - To check initially, then raise a bet made later on in the same betting round. Frequently a sign of strength, but may be a bluff.
- BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
- IN - Still eligible to win the pot. "I'm in" is often spoken as one adds chips to the pot, calling.
