INSIDE STRAIGHT - Four cards to a straight, where only one rank will complete the hand. E.g., 4-5-6-8 is an inside straight since only a 7 will fill (i.e., complete) the hand. Often called a GUT-SHOT. Compare: BOBTAIL STRAIGHT, OPEN-ENDED STRAIGHT.
FOURTH STREET - In stud poker, the fourth card dealt to each player. Sometimes used to refer to the fourth community card dealt in Hold'em, although the more common term for this is TURN (q.v.).
ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.
POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
ANTE - A small bet all players are required to make before a hand is dealt. Not all games have an ante. Related terms: BLIND, FORCED BET.
