- MANIAC - A player who bets, raises and reraises without regard to the quality of his hand. Most often found in flop games.
- CHECK RAISE - To check initially, then raise a bet made later on in the same betting round. Frequently a sign of strength, but may be a bluff.
- UNDER THE GUN - The position that has to act first in a round of betting.
- MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
- MISDEAL - A hand dealt incorrectly that must be re-dealt.
- COMMUNITY CARDS - Cards that are available for every player to use in making a hand. Usually dealt face up somewhere in the middle of the table.
