- BLUFF - To make a bet or raise with a poor hand, in hope that the remaining active player(s) will fold.
- EVEN-MONEY - A bet that pays off exactly the amount wagered. E.g., "Double or nothing" is an even-money bet.
- WHEEL - A-2-3-4-5. Usually discussed in the context of lowball where it is the best possible hand. Can also refer to a 5-high straight in high games. Also: BICYCLE.
- FULL OF - Describes a full house. "Fives full of queens" is 5-5-5-Q-Q.
- LITTLE SLICK - In Hold'em, hole cards of A-2, suited or not.
