POT - The total amount of money bet so far in a hand.
LAY ODDS - To give favorable odds to an opponent.
CASE - The fourth card of a particular rank, as in "he folded the case 9" when describing where all the 9s were in a hand. Comes from the game of Faro where an employee of the house, called the "case keeper". kept track of the number of each rank of card remaining.
STUCK - Down a nontrivial amount of money, as in "he's stuck $800".
