Useful poker information:
- BLUFF - To make a bet or raise with a poor hand, in hope that the remaining active player(s) will fold.
- FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
- REPRESENT - Implying, by one's betting style, that one has a particular hand.
- DRAWING DEAD - A draw in which it is impossible to obtain a winning hand for any of a variety of reasons: an opponent's hand is better than whatever you are drawing to, the card(s) that make your hand are out of play, or (in Hold'em) give an opponent a stronger hand even if it makes yours. Frequently used in the past tense, since one rarely knows it at the time.
- STEAM - Playing wildly, calling and raising a lot, because one is upset. Compare: ON TILT.
- FOLD - To decline to call a bet, thus dropping out of a hand.
