Useful poker information:

  • POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
  • LIVE [CARD] - In Stud, a card probably not held by other players.
  • 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.
  • FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
  • GUT SHOT - A draw to an inside straight, as in 2-3-4-6.
  • UNDERDOG - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that does not figure to be the winner. Ant: FAVORITE.
