Poker argot:

• UNDER THE GUN - The position that has to act first in a round of betting.
• FREEROLL - [1] A poker tournament that does not charge a buy-in fee; players must earn buy-in credits through previous play at the same establishment. [2] Having a lock on part of a pot (sure to win a greater fraction of the pot than one is betting) and playing to win more or all of it.
• LATE BLIND - In addition to "regular" blinds, some games allow a player (particularly a new one) to post a blind bet in return for the right to enter the game immediately and act last on the first betting round. The amount of the blind is determined by house rules, usually somewhere between the last blind and double the last blind. It is frequently a LIVE BLIND.
• TOP PAIR - In flop games, having a hole card that matches the highest card on the board.
• ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
• SPLIT [THE POT] - To split the pot between two or more players. Related term: QUARTER.
