Poker jargon:
- BIG BLIND - A blind bet, usually a raise of an earlier blind which would be called the SMALL BLIND. In limit poker, the BIG BLIND is usually the size of the minimum bet on the first round of betting.
- TRIPS - Three of a kind. In Hold'em the term SET is used when two of the three cards are hole cards.
- KICKER - In hands containing pairs and trips, the highest card not matched. In draw games, sometimes a card kept for deception purposes.
- FOLD - To decline to call a bet, thus dropping out of a hand.
- EDGE - An advantage over an opponent, either specific or subjective.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
