Poker lingo:
- BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
- LEAK - To show one's hole cards (often unknowingly).
- CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
- MITES AND LICE - A hand consisting of two pair, threes over twos.
- SIXTH STREET - The sixth card dealt in 7-card stud.
- HOYLE - Edmund Hoyle (1769-?) was the authoritative source for rules of card games. Hoyle is to card rules as Webster is to word definitions.
