Useful poker information:
- EVEN-MONEY - A bet that pays off exactly the amount wagered. E.g., "Double or nothing" is an even-money bet.
- UNDER THE GUN - The position that has to act first in a round of betting.
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
- FREEZE-OUT - A table-stakes game that continues until a small number of players (possibly only one) has all the money. The major event in The World Series of Poker is a freeze-out game.
- FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
- ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
