Poker lexicon:

• CASE - The fourth card of a particular rank, as in "he folded the case 9" when describing where all the 9s were in a hand. Comes from the game of Faro where an employee of the house, called the "case keeper". kept track of the number of each rank of card remaining.
• SPLIT [THE POT] - To split the pot between two or more players. Related term: QUARTER.
• 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.
• DOUBLE BELLY BUSTER - A two-way inside straight. E.g., 3-5-6-7-9.
• DEAD MONEY - Money contributed to the pot by players who have folded.
• BUTTON CHARGE - A periodic fee paid by whoever is the button, perhaps every 20 minutes or 30 minutes. Constitutes part or all of the HOUSE CUT.
