Fort Collins poker series joins World Series
The Fort Collins Series of Poker has become an official World Series of Poker satellite tournament. We were very, very excited (when we found out), said Holly Milenski, promotional coordinator for Realities for Children. To become a satellite means quite a bit. It makes us stand out.

Poker argot:
- POCKET ROCKETS - In Hold'em, a pair of aces for hole cards.
- RACE - In tournaments it is sometimes convenient to remove all lower-denomination chips from play, as the remaining players' stacks tend to grow. Small chips are converted to larger chips and any odd chips are "raced off" in the following way: each player with odd chips places them in front of his stack and is dealt one card for each chip. Highest card (rank and suit) takes all the small chips and converts them to higher-denomination chips.
- POT LIMIT - A game where the maximum bet is determined by the size of the pot at the time. Note that a player wanting to raise first calls the bet, then totals the pot to determine the maximum amount he can raise.
- BELLY BUSTER - An inside straight draw. Same as GUTSHOT.
- PASS - Opposite of bet. To check, if checked to. To fold, if bet to.
- RIVER - The last card dealt in a hand of stud or Hold'em.
