Useful poker terms:
- OUT - [1] A card that will improve your hand, often substantially. A hand with many OUTS is preferable to a hand with only 1 or 2. [2] Folded, ineligible to bet or win this hand. "I'm out" is often a synonym for "I fold".
- LAY ODDS - To give favorable odds to an opponent.
- BET FOR VALUE - Betting a hand that, in the long run, is expected to win more than it loses. Antonym: BLUFF.
- ON THE COME - A situation where the player does not have a complete hand but hopes to make one if the right cards come up.
- ACTION - Money that is being bet. "NO ACTION" means a hand or game has few bettors and fewer raisers. "Gimme some action" is ostensibly a plea for calls and raises.
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
