Poker argot:
- BET - To put money into the pot, pursuant to the rules of the game, thus maintaining a chance of winning the pot.
- STAND OFF - To call a raise. "Opener raises, I stand off".
- STEAM - Playing wildly, calling and raising a lot, because one is upset. Compare: ON TILT.
- SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
- OPENER - The player who opens the betting, especially in draw poker. A hand may have no openers, in which case it is PASSED OUT, i.e., new hands are dealt.
- STRAIGHT - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence but not in suit.
