Casino poker language:
- BLACK - When referring to chips, black usually stands for $100 casino chips. "This guy sits down with a stack of blacks and raises the first bet." Not ALL casinos use black for $100 but that is the common usage.
- FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
- 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.)
- OVERPAIR - In Hold'em, a pair in the hole that is larger than any community card on the board.
- ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
- FISH - A player who loses money. An old saying is "If you can't spot the fish at the table, *you* are the fish.".
