Poker lingo:

• FAMILY POT - A pot where all of the players at the table are participating, even after each has had an opportunity to act.
• BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
• PAT HAND - In draw poker, a hand that does not need any more cards. Specifically, a straight, flush, full house or straight flush. One might bluff and represent a pat hand but actually hold something else.
• STACKED [DECK] - A deck that has been arranged to give one player a huge advantage. Also: RIGGED.
• AMERICAN AIRLINES - In Hold'em, a pair of Aces in the hole. Better known (at least in rec.gambling) as POCKET ROCKETS.
• FAVORITE - Before all the cards are dealt, a hand that figures to be the winner. Ant: UNDERDOG.
