Poker argot:

• STRAIGHT - A hand consisting of 5 cards in sequence but not in suit.
• POCKET PAIR - Generic Hold'em term for 2 hole cards of the same rank.
• 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.
• REPRESENT - Implying, by one's betting style, that one has a particular hand.
• STRING BET - An unethical and often illegal means of raising whereby a player puts a call-size stack of chips into the pot and, after observing the reactions of the players, then goes back to his stack and puts out more, thus raising.
• KICKER - In hands containing pairs and trips, the highest card not matched. In draw games, sometimes a card kept for deception purposes.
