Poker jargon:
- FILL - To draw a card that makes a five-card hand (straight, flush, full house, straight flush).
- UNDERDOG - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that does not figure to be the winner. Ant: FAVORITE.
- RAIL - A barrier dividing the card playing area from a public area.
- OPENERS - Cards in a hand that qualify a player to open the betting.
- STRAIGHT FLUSH - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence and the same suit.
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
