Useful poker terms:
- POCKET PAIR - Generic Hold'em term for 2 hole cards of the same rank.
- PASS - Opposite of bet. To check, if checked to. To fold, if bet to.
- 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.
- ALL-IN - To have all of one's chips in the pot. A player who is all-in cannot be forced out of the pot by more betting, but is only eligible to win that portion of the pot he has contributed to. Generally, a SIDE POT is created each time a player is all-in.
- WIRED [PAIR] - A pair in the hole. In 5-card stud, a door card that pairs the hole card.
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
