Poker lingo:
- ACTION - Money that is being bet. "NO ACTION" means a hand or game has few bettors and fewer raisers. "Gimme some action" is ostensibly a plea for calls and raises.
- MANIAC - A player who bets, raises and reraises without regard to the quality of his hand. Most often found in flop games.
- PAY OFF - Calling a bet with little expectation of winning, unless the opponent is bluffing.
- HOYLE - Edmund Hoyle (1769-?) was the authoritative source for rules of card games. Hoyle is to card rules as Webster is to word definitions.
- FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
- QUARTER - [1] Twenty-five dollars, often symbolized by a green casino chip. [2] To divide half a pot between two tying hands. In split pot games, a player who "ties" another player for their half of the pot is said to be "quartered". One might say "I didn't bet my A-2 because I figured I'd get quartered".
