Poker lingo:
- ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
- CHECK RAISE - To check initially, then raise a bet made later on in the same betting round. Frequently a sign of strength, but may be a bluff.
- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- DOYLE BRUNSON - In Hold'em, 10-2 in the hole. So named because Doyle Brunson won two straight WSOPs (q.v.) in 1975 and 1976 with 10-2 on the last hand. (Suited (spades) in 1975, unsuited in 1976).
- 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.
