ESPN WSOP Set for July 10
For the first time the ESPN Coverage of the World Series of Poker is going to start before the WSOP finishes. The coverage will kick off on July 10th at 8 pm Eastern Time, while the actual WSOP will continue to run through July 17th, the date of the final table of the Main Event. ESPN will be on hand for that as well, and will be offering a live Pay Per View package for around twenty bucks…

Poker lingo:
- LIVE [CARD] - In Stud, a card probably not held by other players.
- SEAT POSITION - The actual seat a player has, normally numbered sequentially starting with 1 as the first seat to dealer's left. Not to be confused with POSITION in a particular pot. Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- COLD CALL - Calling both a bet and raise at the same time, as opposed to calling a bet then later calling a raise made after the call.
- DEALER'S CHOICE - In home games, a rule that permits the dealer to name which poker game to be played that hand. Often limited to selecting from a list provided.
- SHORT-STACKED - Playing with a only a small amount of money, thus limiting one's risk and reward.
