Useful poker information:

BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.
BLUFF - To make a bet or raise with a poor hand, in hope that the remaining active player(s) will fold.
ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
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.
MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
RING GAME - A standard game where players can come and go as they choose. The opposite of TOURNAMENT.
