Casino poker language:
- 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.
- NUT / NUTS - The best possible hand of a given class. Not a LOCK unless all cards have been dealt. The "nut flush" is the highest possible flush, but might still lose to, e.g., a full house. Usually used in Hold'em games.
- POCKET ROCKETS - In Hold'em, a pair of aces for hole cards.
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
- SET - In Hold'em, three of a kind where two of the cards are hole cards.
