Poker jargon:
- LIVE BLIND - The last and largest blind bet may or may not be LIVE. If LIVE, the blind bettor has the option of "raising" his own blind in the event the bet is called around to him. This is normal, and is sometimes referred to as "blinds are live".
- SIXTH STREET - The sixth card dealt in 7-card stud.
- RIVER - The last card dealt in a hand of stud or Hold'em.
- RUNNER-RUNNER - A hand made using both of the last two cards dealt.
- 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.
- BUTTON - A distinctive token held by the player sitting in the theoretical dealer's position, when a house dealer is used. The button rotates around the table so that every player has an opportunity to be the last to act. Also, "THE BUTTON" can refer to the player who currently has the button. ("I was the button and called the blind".) Synonyms: BUCK, PUCK.
