Poker glossary:
- RERAISE - To raise after an opponent has raised.
- RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
- 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.
- ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
- SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
- 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.
