Poker talk:
- RAINBOW - In flop games, a flop in which no two cards are of the same suit. "The flop was A 9 7 rainbow."
- BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.
- FLAT CALL - To call a bet. Emphasizes that the caller did not raise.
- DOUBLE BELLY BUSTER - A two-way inside straight. E.g., 3-5-6-7-9.
- BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
- SHARK - A good/crafty player often posing as a fish early in the game.
