RIVER - The last card dealt in a hand of stud or Hold'em.
REBUY - [1] To purchase additional chips after an initial buy-in, usually after losing most or all of the previous buy-in. This term is most often used in certain tournaments where if one loses all one's chips, or falls below a certain minimum chip level, for an additional sum of money one can purchase a fixed amount of additional tournament chips. Usually there is a time limit (The "REBUY PERIOD") as to how long rebuys are allowed. [2] The additional chips "rebought" in tournament play.
LAY ODDS - To give favorable odds to an opponent.
FIRE - To make the first bet in a betting round. Used to emphasize that the player bet when a check was possible, showing strength.
TOP TWO PAIR - In flop games, having hole cards that make the highest possible two pair hand.
PAT HAND - In draw poker, a hand that does not need any more cards. Specifically, a straight, flush, full house or straight flush. One might bluff and represent a pat hand but actually hold something else.
