Nine tribes say ‘no’ to Internet poker

Nine tribes in California today asserted their opposition to proposed intrastate Internet poker.

ROYAL FLUSH - An ace-high straight flush, the best possible hand in regular poker.
LAY ODDS - To give favorable odds to an opponent.
FIRE - To make the first bet in a betting round. Used to emphasize that the player bet when a check was possible, showing strength.
FLOP GAME - Any of a number of poker games where a flop is dealt.
BARN - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
LATE BLIND - In addition to "regular" blinds, some games allow a player (particularly a new one) to post a blind bet in return for the right to enter the game immediately and act last on the first betting round. The amount of the blind is determined by house rules, usually somewhere between the last blind and double the last blind. It is frequently a LIVE BLIND.
