Terms pertaining to poker at the poker table are-
• All-in: This term is in fact self explanatory. In a hand or poker when a player happens to put all of his chips on bet or some other player lays a wager on each and every one chip of your then you are said to be All-in.
• Chase or Chaser: This happens when any player either calls or he bets on a draw or happens to chase his card which is hand-making. Though all poker players will naturally do this while they are playing, there are a few others who are more obvious and they chase whilst they should not stay in that poker hand by any means. Players such as these are called the Chasers.
• Outdraw: This term is used for players that set off all in the game of poker with their best hand. So, they use all their chips on having to lay a wager at the time of betting with their best hand and then when another player calls their bet and ends up drawing a better hand on them they are said to have been Outdrawn.
• Gut-shot: When a player gets straight to the inside then it is called a gut-shot. For example if the player has 45 in his hand and 782 is displayed on the board 782, then he requires a 6 to for making his straight.
Apart from these poker terms there are many others like check which are used for instance while chatting in online poker like: BRB or be right back, NH which stands for nice hand, VN for very nice and so on.
