Drawing hand
In general use, a drawing hand on the flop is one that probably has to improve to win.
Before the flop,drawing hands are those two-card combinations that hope to flop a drawing hand.
A hand like 7 
6 is a drawing hand. You’re hoping to flop either a flush draw or a straight draw.
In this book I used the term drawing hand to categorize a group of hands that have sufficient chances of winning to be worth calling a raise if two or three other players are active, even though the hand is probably not the best starting out.
Fancy Play Syndrome (FPS)
A tendency to try to be tricky when it’s unwarranted.
A player with FPS bluffs too much, semi-bluffs too much, and generally plays too aggressively.
Fish
A bad player who can be counted on to lose his money.
Flop
The first three of the five community cards that make up the board.
Fold
To concede any claim on the pot by discarding your hand rather than calling a bet.
Four-bet
To four-bet is to make the last raise.
Most cardrooms have a limit of one bet and three raises perspective round, so the fourth bet is the third, and last, raise.
Most cardrooms have a limit of one bet and three raises perspective round, so the fourth bet is the third, and last, raise. Sometimes it’s called capping it. To cap the betting is to four-bet it.

Gambling hand
A hand that isn’t immediately the best hand but has long-shot chances of developing into the best hand.
These hands are usually playable pre-flop when six or more other players are active.
Usually you should not call with these hands if the hand is going to be heads-up, but if seven or more players will call a raise, these poker hands are often worth a raise pre-flop when you’re in a late position.
Gutshot
An inside straight draw. An outside straight draw has eight outs. That’s hand like 6,7,8,9. An inside straight draw is a hand like 5,6,8,9 and has only four outs.
Heads-up
Heads-up is a two player contest. Whenever there are exactly two active hands, the hand is said to be played heads-up.
Implied odds
The odds you are getting from an expectation of calls on future betting rounds.
Kicker
The highest odd card when you have a pair. If you have a pair of Aces with a King kicker. It ’s often used to denote the lower of the two cards in your private hand.
For example, if you have an Ace and a 10, you have an Ace with a 10b kicker. If your 10 pairs a 10 on the board, then you have a pair of 10s with an Ace kicker.
Kill
A kill is an extra blind that doubles the limit. If the game is a 10/20 limit game with 5/10 poker blinds and a player puts out a $20 kill, the game becomes a 20/40 game with three blinds for that hand.
