WSOP Has New Music
For four years ESPN has broadcast the World Series of Poker with the same theme, a sort of western rock guitar riff inspired piece of music, and WSOP officials decided it was time for a change. Executive Producer Matt Maranz contacted MusicBox, a firm known for building themes for TV and movies, to produce the new WSOP theme. MusicBox put together a few tracks and sent them over, and from them Maranz picked the building blocks of this year’s new WSOP theme, a more trendy approach to fit with Las Vegas.

Poker talk:
- DECLARE - In high/low games, declaring one's hand as high or low or both ways (usually done with chips in hand). Usually played in home games; casinos tend to play CARDS SPEAK.
- FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
- TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
- SMALL BLIND - In games with two blinds the first blind is the SMALL BLIND because it is usually one-half (or less) the second or large blind.
- INSIDE STRAIGHT - Four cards to a straight, where only one rank will complete the hand. E.g., 4-5-6-8 is an inside straight since only a 7 will fill (i.e., complete) the hand. Often called a GUT-SHOT. Compare: BOBTAIL STRAIGHT, OPEN-ENDED STRAIGHT.
- PASS - Opposite of bet. To check, if checked to. To fold, if bet to.
