Poker argot:
- DEAD MAN'S HAND - Generically: two pair, aces and eights. Specifically: the black aces, black eights and nine of diamonds. The hand Wild Bill Hickok was holding when he was shot to death.
- 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.
- STRING BET - An unethical and often illegal means of raising whereby a player puts a call-size stack of chips into the pot and, after observing the reactions of the players, then goes back to his stack and puts out more, thus raising.
- STAND OFF - To call a raise. "Opener raises, I stand off".
- 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".
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
