Hollywood Dave Joins UltimateBet
A sixth poker player has joined the Star Players Team of online poker room UltimateBet, but this fellow isn’t a poker player, he plays blackjack. ‘Hollywood’ Dave Stann is the newest player to join the UB Star Players Team, the Bad Boy of Blackjack known as much for his eyeliner and antics as his skill at playing blackjack. But don’t count him out in the poker arena, as UB spokesperson Annie Duke says Hollywood Dave has been studying up and his poker skills are nearly “on par” with his blackjack skills.

Poker lingo:
- WHEEL - A-2-3-4-5. Usually discussed in the context of lowball where it is the best possible hand. Can also refer to a 5-high straight in high games. Also: BICYCLE.
- FAVORITE - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that figures to be the winner. Ant: UNDERDOG.
- SIDE POT - When an active player runs out of money during the course of a hand, the remaining players participate in a second or SIDE POT for the rest of the hand. Additional side pots are possible if several players run out of money at different points in a hand.
- FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
- SHILL - A card room employee who plays with House money, and does not share in any of his (her) winnings or losses. Shills are used to facilitate starting games, and keeping them going. Compare: PROP.
