Poker lexicon:
- DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
- RUSH - A winning streak. Also "ON A RUSH".
- TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
- BICYCLE - The best possible low hand: A-2-3-4-5. More common term: WHEEL.
- POCKET PAIR - Generic Hold'em term for 2 hole cards of the same rank.
- 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.
