Online Poker Room Having Trouble
Online poker room Bodog Poker has been in the poker news lately, and not for giving away lots of prizes or unique promos, but rather for a string of hits that leave the future of Calvin Ayre’s poker room in doubt. This summer the US Government seized millions of dollars during an investigation, and rumors of recent layoffs have not gone a long way towards bolstering confidence in the poker room. In this week’s anyalsis of poker rooms by Poker Site Scout, Bodog dropped down to position 14 from position 10.

Poker talk:
- FREE CARD - A card dealt after all players checked in a betting round.
- SEAT POSITION - The actual seat a player has, normally numbered sequentially starting with 1 as the first seat to dealer's left. Not to be confused with POSITION in a particular pot. Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
- SPLIT [OPENERS] - In draw poker, to discard one or more openers, usually to draw to a straight or flush. Normally requires the opener to declare the act and retain the discards so that the act of opening can later be validated.
- BIG SLICK - In Texas Hold'em, hole cards of A-K, suited or not.
- STRAIGHT FLUSH - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence and the same suit.
- MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
