Poker argot:
- TAPPED [OUT] - Out of money. Can refer to a player running out of money in the course of a hand, thus still active for the main pot; or can refer to a player who has lost his bankroll and can no longer play.
- FULL OF - Describes a full house. "Fives full of queens" is 5-5-5-Q-Q.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
- CRYING CALL - A call made with little chance of ultimately winning, but marginally better than an immediate fold.
- FOURTH STREET - In stud poker, the fourth card dealt to each player. Sometimes used to refer to the fourth community card dealt in Hold'em, although the more common term for this is TURN (q.v.).
- SHARK - A good/crafty player often posing as a fish early in the game.
