Poker talk:
- RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
- SHOWDOWN - The point at the end of the hand where all active players reveal their cards and the pot is awarded to the winner(s).
- TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
- STACKED [DECK] - A deck that has been arranged to give one player a huge advantage. Also: RIGGED.
- SPREAD LIMIT - A variation on fixed limit wherein the minimum and maximum bets are different. A 1-4-8 game allows bets from 1 to 4 in the early rounds and 1-8 in the last round. A 1-4-8-16 game allows bets from 1 to 4 in the early rounds, 1 to 8 in the next-to-last round, and 1 to 16 in the last round.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
