Poker terminology:

  • POT - The total amount of money bet so far in a hand.
  • REPRESENT - Implying, by one's betting style, that one has a particular hand.
  • WIRED [PAIR] - A pair in the hole. In 5-card stud, a door card that pairs the hole card.
  • BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
  • OPENER - The player who opens the betting, especially in draw poker. A hand may have no openers, in which case it is PASSED OUT, i.e., new hands are dealt.
  • TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
