Poker lingo:
- JOKER - A 53rd card in the deck, distinct from the others, used as a wild card or as a BUG.
- BAD GAME - Any game in which you figure to be the loser, because the other players are better than you.
- BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
- LITTLE SLICK - In Hold'em, hole cards of A-2, suited or not.
- KICKER - In hands containing pairs and trips, the highest card not matched. In draw games, sometimes a card kept for deception purposes.
- POSSIBLE [STRAIGHT/FLUSH] - Up cards that quite possibly could lead to a straight and/or a flush.
