Poker jargon:
- 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.)
- READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
- HOOK - A Jack. So named because the "J" resembles a hook.
- PAY STATION - A player who rarely folds, thus who frequently calls better hands and loses. Almost as much fun as a LIVE ONE.
- BRODERICK CRAWFORD - In Hold'em, hole cards of 10-4. From the 1950s TV series "Highway Patrol", starring Broderick Crawford.
- POCKET ROCKETS - In Hold'em, a pair of aces for hole cards.
