• CUT - To break the deck into 2 stacks of at least 5 cards each. Usually performed by the player to the dealer's right to insure that the the deck is not stacked.
• ON TILT - Playing worse (usually, more aggressively) than usual because a player has become emotionally upset.
• POSSIBLE [STRAIGHT/FLUSH] - Up cards that quite possibly could lead to a straight and/or a flush.
• POSITION - One's location in the betting sequence, relative to the players still in the hand. First position is first to act.
