Poker jargon:
- HOYLE - Edmund Hoyle (1769-?) was the authoritative source for rules of card games. Hoyle is to card rules as Webster is to word definitions.
- TO GO - The current betting level, as in "$20 to go" meaning every player must contribute $20 (total) or drop. A $10 raise would then make the pot "$30 to go".
- SPLIT [THE POT] - To split the pot between two or more players. Related term: QUARTER.
- NUT / NUTS - The best possible hand of a given class. Not a LOCK unless all cards have been dealt. The "nut flush" is the highest possible flush, but might still lose to, e.g., a full house. Usually used in Hold'em games.
- FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
- FOLD - To decline to call a bet, thus dropping out of a hand.
