Online Poker Ban in New Jersey Possible

The state of online poker may have done an about face in the US state of New Jersey. Where once people thought online poker sites would soon be welcome the rumors have started that the opposite will happen. Governor Chris Christie may be going to vote against the online gaming bill and use his powers to veto it. While the word among poker players was that Christie was favorably leaning towards the bill the rumor mill seems to have disproved that. It seems that on March 3rd Christie will take action to make online poker once and for all illegal in the state of New Jersey.

Casino poker language:

FLUSH - A poker hand consisting of five cards all one suit.
TRIPS - Three of a kind. In Hold'em the term SET is used when two of the three cards are hole cards.
SCOOP - To take all of a pot that is normally split, either by winning both halves outright or winning one half when no players qualify for the other half.
CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
RACE - In tournaments it is sometimes convenient to remove all lower-denomination chips from play, as the remaining players' stacks tend to grow. Small chips are converted to larger chips and any odd chips are "raced off" in the following way: each player with odd chips places them in front of his stack and is dealt one card for each chip. Highest card (rank and suit) takes all the small chips and converts them to higher-denomination chips.
BOAT - A FULL HOUSE, three of a kind and a pair.
