Poker argot:
- FILL - To draw a card that makes a five-card hand (straight, flush, full house, straight flush).
- OVERPAIR - In Hold'em, a pair in the hole that is larger than any community card on the board.
- FOLD - To decline to call a bet, thus dropping out of a hand.
- BACK DOOR - Applies to a hand that was made in the last card or two, specifically not a hand the player was originally planning on having. Most often applied to straights and flushes.
- STUD - Any of several poker games in which some of each players' cards are exposed.
- BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
