Poker lingo:
- UNDERDOG - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that does not figure to be the winner. Ant: FAVORITE.
- FULL HOUSE - A hand consisting of 3-of-a-kind and a (different) pair.
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
- FLOP - [1] In Hold'em, the first three community cards, dealt simultaneously. [2] To deal a flop, or to make a hand on a flop. "I flopped trips".
