Poker terminology:
- OPENER - The player who opens the betting, especially in draw poker. A hand may have no openers, in which case it is PASSED OUT, i.e., new hands are dealt.
- DEALER'S CHOICE - In home games, a rule that permits the dealer to name which poker game to be played that hand. Often limited to selecting from a list provided.
- TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
- 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.)
- SHORT-STACKED - Playing with a only a small amount of money, thus limiting one's risk and reward.
- BIG BOBTAIL - An open-ended 4-card straight flush.
