Poker terminology:
- SIDE POT - When an active player runs out of money during the course of a hand, the remaining players participate in a second or SIDE POT for the rest of the hand. Additional side pots are possible if several players run out of money at different points in a hand.
- LOOSE - Playing more hands than the norm. Antonym: TIGHT.
- OVERPAIR - In Hold'em, a pair in the hole that is larger than any community card on the board.
- FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
- RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
