- 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.
