CEO Poker Tour all about networking
The CEO Poker Tour isn’t the WSOP. And it isn’t the WPT. But that’s ok. It’s not supposed to be. “It’s a place where CEOs and junior executives can make a connection and network while playing poker,” said Maria Gomez, President of CEO Poker and Executive Games.

Poker terminology:
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
- EXPECTATION - The long-run [dis-]advantage of a given situation, specifically without reference to any particular outcome. I.e., what you figure to win [lose] on average after a large number of repetitions of the same situation.
- SPLIT [OPENERS] - In draw poker, to discard one or more openers, usually to draw to a straight or flush. Normally requires the opener to declare the act and retain the discards so that the act of opening can later be validated.
- FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
- BLANK - Used in describing stud and Hold'em games. Refers to a dealt card that does not offer any value; stating the actual rank and suit would detract from a description of the hand. "The last card was a blank.".
- BACK DOOR - Applies to a hand that was made in the last card or two, specifically not a hand the player was originally planning on having. Most often applied to straights and flushes.
