Poker terminology:
- NUT / NUTS - The best possible hand of a given class. Not a LOCK unless all cards have been dealt. The "nut flush" is the highest possible flush, but might still lose to, e.g., a full house. Usually used in Hold'em games.
- RAGS - Board cards that are small, not suited and not in sequence, e.g., 9-5-2. When "rags flop", it is unlikely that anyone has a good hand, except possibly the big blind in an unraised pot.
- SPLIT [THE POT] - To split the pot between two or more players. Related term: QUARTER.
- 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.
- LITTLE SLICK - In Hold'em, hole cards of A-2, suited or not.
- FLAT LIMIT - A variant of fixed limit where all bets are the same amount.
