Martin County biker poker run begins Sept. 27

The second annual Southern Bike Night Six-County Poker Run and Bike Show gets underway Saturday, Sept. 27.

MISDEAL - A hand dealt incorrectly that must be re-dealt.
RAKE - Money taken from each pot and given to the house in return for hosting the game. Usually a percentage of the pot (5%-10%) up to some maximum amount.
TABLE STAKES - A standard rule whereby during a hand players can only bet the money they have on the table. If the bet to a player is more than the player's stack, that player may call with all his chips and be eligible to win only that portion of the pot he contributed to equally. A side pot is created, for which only the remaining players may compete.
SMALL BLIND - In games with two blinds the first blind is the SMALL BLIND because it is usually one-half (or less) the second or large blind.
DECLARE - In high/low games, declaring one's hand as high or low or both ways (usually done with chips in hand). Usually played in home games; casinos tend to play CARDS SPEAK.
FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
