Poker jargon:
- ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
- DRAW - [1] A class of poker games characterized by players being dealt 5 cards face-down and later having the opportunity to replace some of the original 5. "Draw poker" and "Five-card draw" are examples of usage. [2] In stud and Hold'em games, the set of cards that will be dealt later can be collectively called "the draw". [3] To discard some number of cards and have dealt an equal number of replacements.
- RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
- BARN - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
- FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
