Useful poker information:
- DEAD MAN'S HAND - Generically: two pair, aces and eights. Specifically: the black aces, black eights and nine of diamonds. The hand Wild Bill Hickok was holding when he was shot to death.
- SHORT-STACKED - Playing with a only a small amount of money, thus limiting one's risk and reward.
- STUCK - Down a nontrivial amount of money, as in "he's stuck $800".
- MANIAC - A player who bets, raises and reraises without regard to the quality of his hand. Most often found in flop games.
- LATE BLIND - In addition to "regular" blinds, some games allow a player (particularly a new one) to post a blind bet in return for the right to enter the game immediately and act last on the first betting round. The amount of the blind is determined by house rules, usually somewhere between the last blind and double the last blind. It is frequently a LIVE BLIND.
- WHITE BLACKBIRD - A hand so astonishingly rare as to be unworthy of the opponents' consideration, e.g., being dealt a pat royal flush in 5-card draw.
