- BLANK - Used in describing stud and Hold'em games. Refers to a dealt card that does not offer any value; stating the actual rank and suit would detract from a description of the hand. "The last card was a blank.".
- LOCK - A hand that cannot be beat under any circumstances. Also: NUTS.
- MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
- HOUSE RULE - Rules and interpretations (e.g., use of wild cards, or rules on having to show beaten hands) that are specific to an establishment or even tables within the establishment.
- SUICIDE KING - King of Hearts. So named because in the drawing the king appears to be stabbing himself in the head.
