Poker slang:
- HOUSE RULE - Rules and interpretations (e.g., use of wild cards, or rules on having to show beaten hands) that are specific to an establishment or even tables within the establishment.
- 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.
- ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
- DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
- SCOOP - To take all of a pot that is normally split, either by winning both halves outright or winning one half when no players qualify for the other half.
- PASSED OUT. - A hand in which nobody opens. What happens next is a function of the game being played.
