Useful poker terms:

  • SIDE POT - When an active player runs out of money during the course of a hand, the remaining players participate in a second or SIDE POT for the rest of the hand. Additional side pots are possible if several players run out of money at different points in a hand.
  • DRAW OUT - To catch a card that improves your situation from a losing hand to a winning hand, especially when you beat someone holding a hand that usually figures to win.
  • RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
  • OUT - [1] A card that will improve your hand, often substantially. A hand with many OUTS is preferable to a hand with only 1 or 2. [2] Folded, ineligible to bet or win this hand. "I'm out" is often a synonym for "I fold".
  • FREE CARD - A card dealt after all players checked in a betting round.
  • LIVE ONE - The best kind of opponent, a poor player with a lot of money to lose and in a hurry to lose it.
