World Poker Tour Nervous
The World Poker Tour was partially responsible for the poker boom but it looks like they may be looking for a hand out before long.

Poker talk:
- MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
- PAT HAND - In draw poker, a hand that does not need any more cards. Specifically, a straight, flush, full house or straight flush. One might bluff and represent a pat hand but actually hold something else.
- SEAT POSITION - The actual seat a player has, normally numbered sequentially starting with 1 as the first seat to dealer's left. Not to be confused with POSITION in a particular pot. Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
- 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.
- EDGE - An advantage over an opponent, either specific or subjective.
- DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
