- SEMI-BLUFF - To bluff with a come hand that figures to win if it hits.
- POT ODDS - The amount of money in the pot divided by the amount of money you must bet in order to call. Often used to determine if a pot offers enough reward to play on the come.
- LEAK - To show one's hole cards (often unknowingly).

- RAIL - A barrier dividing the card playing area from a public area.
