Poker jargon:

  • FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
  • HOLE CARDS - In Stud and Hold'em, the face-down cards dealt to each player.
  • ON THE COME - A situation where the player does not have a complete hand but hopes to make one if the right cards come up.
  • FLAT CALL - To call a bet. Emphasizes that the caller did not raise.
  • ACTION - Money that is being bet. "NO ACTION" means a hand or game has few bettors and fewer raisers. "Gimme some action" is ostensibly a plea for calls and raises.
