- ONE-EYED - The jack of hearts, jack of spades or king of diamonds. So named because the characters are drawn in profile, thus showing only one eye.
- RAGS - Board cards that are small, not suited and not in sequence, e.g., 9-5-2. When "rags flop", it is unlikely that anyone has a good hand, except possibly the big blind in an unraised pot.
- STRAIGHT FLUSH - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence and the same suit.
- BET - To put money into the pot, pursuant to the rules of the game, thus maintaining a chance of winning the pot.
- BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.
- EVEN-MONEY - A bet that pays off exactly the amount wagered. E.g., "Double or nothing" is an even-money bet.
