lol i like the less common yet true abbreviations. i am glad to know that i know about 90% of what you were talking about. i have been playing for 5 years now and i still need to learn more. glad to see someone posted this so i could understand what the abbreviations are.
Not sure where to post this but I need a nuts and bolts lesson on how to study my hand history. I am playing the fun steps at Carbon and BCP and need to learn how to study my hands for the future. I know that there will be erratic play at these games (some of it mine :") but I would like to get the discipline down for the future. Please advise. Thanks
I like these lists of the Abbreviations and the one with the names of certain holes cards. Pretty neat stuff! Thanks for posting them!
Another one to put up there is shorthanded. I didn't understand that one when i first started playing poker.

Hy,
Before anything else, i would like to thank you for this nice post.
Nevertheless, i don't agree with some of your definitions, as TAG and LAP. If a player play tight, it is not agressive, as well as a loose player isn't passive (i think....)
However, there are some terms i still don't understand, so if you could help me, i would apreciate it.
What are "ring" games? And about "multi table" and "single table" tournaments? Aren't all single table games???

I love this term. you raise from this position intendend to litteraly highjack the button and be last to act on future rounds. i've also heard it called sniper... maybe becuase its an inconspicuous position to try and steal the blinds from.
hehehe... for me, newbie, this terms make me in good mood, because i can see that there are a lot of people that as me use poker to enjoy themselfs, not just by playing, rather also by the way they comunicate, wich sometimes it is funny to read about 😉
Broadway cards are 10-J-Q-K-A. They make the best/nut straight. Not all are created equal.
You might consider an all-in with AK or maybe AQ but I really wouldn't consider something like Q10 or KJ a good all-in card. This is in a sit and go or MTT setting also. I might use AK as a all-in in a cash game but I would need to know the other person is a huge fish.
If 3 or 4 players went all in I would fold everything but AA in less I knew 1 or 2 of them were complete nuts

OK....I read all 10 pages of this thread and did not see this one anywhere:
AINEC
I believe it means "all in on the next card" but I'm not sure...anyone know?
also, a few to add...
"wired pair" means in a stud game when you start with 3 cards, a wired pair means both your hole cards are a pair, as opposed to a "split pair" where your up card matches one of your hole cards.
"rolled up" also refers to stud when all 3 of your starting cards are the same = a VERY VERY strong hand. "I had rolled up tens" as in T,T,T
Jam= usually means to go all in, but in a limit game it means to raise any bet relentlessly up to the betting limit for that round.
Brick= the next card that comes doesn't help you or your opponent.
A2345= the wheel or bicycle or a bike
Well, I have one that I think I invented and that is the "trike" that is when you are playing either razz or stud-8 and you are dealt 3 cards to a bike.
