Poker dictionary:
- DRAWING DEAD - A draw in which it is impossible to obtain a winning hand for any of a variety of reasons: an opponent's hand is better than whatever you are drawing to, the card(s) that make your hand are out of play, or (in Hold'em) give an opponent a stronger hand even if it makes yours. Frequently used in the past tense, since one rarely knows it at the time.
- FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
- CRYING CALL - A call made with little chance of ultimately winning, but marginally better than an immediate fold.
- HOLE CARDS - In Stud and Hold'em, the face-down cards dealt to each player.
- FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
- CARDS SPEAK - Winner(s) of the hand are determined by turning their cards face up, the best hand(s) wins (no declaration).
