OFFSUIT - Not of the same suit. "I held A-Q offsuit" or "The flop was 10-6-2 offsuit". When speaking of 5 or more cards, not all/ of the same suit, i.e., no flush, as in "button had A-K-10-8-7 offsuit."
BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.

CRYING CALL - A call made with little chance of ultimately winning, but marginally better than an immediate fold.
