Poker slang:
- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".
- OVERPAIR - In Hold'em, a pair in the hole that is larger than any community card on the board.
- BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
- PAY OFF - Calling a bet with little expectation of winning, unless the opponent is bluffing.
- TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
- QUALIFIER - A minimum standard that a hand must meet in order to win. Usually applied to the lowball side of a high-low split pot.
