Poker lexicon:
- SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
- SET - In Hold'em, three of a kind where two of the cards are hole cards.
- RIVER - The last card dealt in a hand of stud or Hold'em.
- SEAT POSITION - The actual seat a player has, normally numbered sequentially starting with 1 as the first seat to dealer's left. Not to be confused with POSITION in a particular pot. Typically unrelated to play of a hand but often important in peripheral aspects, e.g.: "Seats 1 and 10 are nonsmoking here", "Seat 5 has a good view of the table", "Seat 3 is in a high-traffic area".
- 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.)
- KICKER TROUBLE - Not having as high a kicker as an opponent.
