A side pot is created, for which only the remaining players may compete.
- SIXTH STREET - The sixth card dealt in 7-card stud.
- MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)

- MITES AND LICE - A hand consisting of two pair, threes over twos.
- PAT - Holding or being dealt a pat hand. "I'm pat" would mean "I don't want to draw any cards.
