Some poker terminologies you may want to know

[CryptSafe]

A good initiative by you OP. This will help people know some useful terms when they hear it and moreover one can make him or herself familiar with it early enough to not be taken unawares when such is mentioned to their hearing.

Terminology matters in every field of life so getting acquainted with it would help ease some stress of communication and make one fast in adapting to the system in which they find themselves. You have done well OP and I will suggest you keep updating the list as time goes on because I believe there are more that are not yet on the list.

Op had really done well and those that want to learn some of these terminologies will not have go and search on the internet for all these words again for them to learn unless if they want to proceed to learn more of them. I have long ago trying to learn more about poker and I think going through this thread remind me that I still have something to learn about without trying to be procrastinate. Poker is a nice game and I hope to get into it in less than no time.

Yeah like using these terms real time would make you sound like a professional poker player. You no longer be judge as a beginner in the table. Ypu won't get intinidated by other players easily because youao somehow know the terminologies.

But regardless of how many terminologies you know, if you don't have the strategy playing and the consistency applying it, you still gonna lose playing poker.

Absolutely, it is good one knows more about what ever they get  themselves involved in not to talk of when it has to do with something that has some technical actions. Sometimes these terminologies are otherwise called professional jagons which are names professionally given to some certain acts or arts. Actually it also gives beauty and uniqueness to some professions and makes it more attractive too and same is applicable to games too.  Sometimes it is good to communicate professionally when it comes to privacy and discretion as not to allow the third party to not understand your conversations.

Lastly, having a strategy is a good game benefit for you because with your strategy, you could be able to win your opponent or possibly have a draw with them.  On a normal before one gets engaged in games, you must have had a well planned strategy for your opponent to defend yourself while playing with them. This would give you a good play ground.

Poker is a different kind of card game used mostly in casinos for gambling and unlike other gambling games it requires one to be very skillful, it's a game that needs more of skills than luck and to win and earn money, you ough to be the best at the game. In poker they call it bluffing your opponet or winning the best hand, there are other poker terminologies you may want to know, such as

Very interesting OP, and a great idea to list these definitions because it is not only that many people are not used to that terminology, but many (most?) members here are not native English speakers so it is double as hard for us to adopt it. I'm not a big poker player myself, but I'm aware that some friends of mine here participate in poker events, and I'm sure that many of them are still learning the poker slang, so thank you on their behalf too

Jargon and nonsense are a delicious combination, aren't they? You may find terms to be elegant, but I find them to be a bit... overdone, a charade for the uninitiated. Do you mean games? They do have some subtleties, but let's not exalt them too much. However, strategy is the real jewel here. But it appears that your interpretation is only the top of the iceberg. Defense? Simple games. The skill of mastering strategy includes offensive play, deceit, and manipulation in addition to defense

Your digression on privacy was a real wild card when it came to lying. It confused me, similar to a poker bluff. However, aren't surprises and the unexpected the main components of games and bets? Nevertheless, it would be helpful to keep in mind that, even while addressing the mysterious, clarity is a virtue

Of course jargons and nonsense are the beauty of every professional engagement coupled with the strategies used in the line of actions to achieve optimum performance.  Being a player requires you having if not all tips just a few of them can be okay to sustain you which is very important when you are amongst players of similar fate so as not to hear them as Latin and confusing  although the words sounds totally strange to people who are not in the line as they would be seen as novice in the system but you should have a good game strategy by far stronger and better to hold unto while playing your games because your strategy when put in play can help you scale through successfully or ties with your opponent while playing. I think it doesn't sound a bit strange though.

I wanted to write something about poker, and I think this thread is useful, besides it is not so full of "pages"

I'm going to start by mentioning some of the jargon used in the OP, the first thing is to understand that much of this jargon is referred to the game itself, it is intrinsic and has nothing to do with the game strategy or the player's styles, to that we have to assume that today many of these adjectives are used in the opposite sense of what they really mean.

With that I mean, that for example before ( old school a player ), Tilt, literally meant that in player in thewent into disarray, today a player can enter those phases just by guile.

So Tilt is a definition referring to the player.

Then we have a Badbeat (for example) which is a situation related to the game itself, it is something that cannot be controlled, and generally its application as a term refers to a percentage greater than 70%-80% or even for some players it can be percentages greater than 90%.

Why do we need percentages to define a BB? well, many are conflip (50%-50%) or have an equity of 60%-40% and believe that losing was a BadBeat.

So, BadBeat refers to a situation and/or characteristic of the game itself.

Then you have one that has evolved a lot today, and that the players of the new generation have exploited to the fullest, that the term itself does not mean what it once meant.

You can hear that term a lot in a poker broadcast; "The player goes out donking...!" or makes a Donkey bet.

Look at OP's quote, as he defines it, it is an old and incomplete definition, since the player's action is what defines such a denomination, in other words it is a move that the player "should not" make, and it is usually when you are not in a position to bet and you do it.

In old school poker, it was normal to give the betting action to the player who had position above you in the table order, today such a thing no longer works like that, so the term refers more to the action than to the player itself, then we fall into the beauty of poker, there are players who use it to their advantage depending on the player to their left.

So, Donkey does not define the quality of a player (which yes) it is today more a game situation.

:://...
Tilt - to play wild or recklessly.
Bad Beat - it's a term for badluck in poker.
...
Donkey - someone who's not very good in playing poker is referred to as a donkey.
...

There are some poker terminologies that I haven't know yet and I think this would be helpful to those who wanted to learn poker. Honestly, there are some terminologies that I didn't know the name but know that some people do it because I personally did it myself on a game I played for practice back then.

But the best way is to learn them as you practice. Learning them from a thread like this and then not practicing makes no sense.

Normally if you play poker and then watch Youtube videos and/or read articles on the subject, you will naturally learn expressions. Also in the chat, although I recommend disabling it and focus on the game.

Although such a thread is not bad if you already know something about the subject to give you a glimpse of the terminology.

true this is very useful for beginners,  I often play but I don't understand many terms, so your writing really helps me
even though poker looks easy if the terms in the game are not understood then I can say that winning will be difficult because we don't understand the basics of this game

It is often said that no man is an island of knowledge, so for me, I am not actually surprised that I don't know some of the terminologies mentioned by the op, possibly because I am not a poker player really, but have been trying to learn anyways.

This is why it is extremely good to read, because in doing so, we get to learn many things we have not none before, all thanks to op for sharing this information here, for like you did mentioned, knowing this terminologies will definitely help gamblers who are intrested in learning about poker learn even faster.

I personally will take time to read and master all of this terminologies, since poker is one game I've always been interested to learn how to play, knowing this terminologies will go a long way I suppose.

Knowledge of poker terminology will come with experience, and there is no need to spend a lot of time studying certain words. If you really want to progress in poker, it's much more important to constantly analyze your hands and practice a lot, learning from mistakes with the help of specialized programs.
