Brunson Autobiography To Debut

November 5 - Doyle Brunson’s "The Godfather of Poker" recalls the personal story of one of the poker world’s greatest players who ever lived.

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.
RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
STUD - Any of several poker games in which some of each players' cards are exposed.
TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
TRIPS - Three of a kind. In Hold'em the term SET is used when two of the three cards are hole cards.
DEAD MAN'S HAND - Generically: two pair, aces and eights. Specifically: the black aces, black eights and nine of diamonds. The hand Wild Bill Hickok was holding when he was shot to death.
