Poker terms defined

I had a couple of people mention to me that they are reading my blog but don't understand many of the poker terms I use. If this applies to you, here are two great resources to help you figure out what I'm talking about: Wikipedia on Hold'em and Lingo & Abbreviations Defined.

And just to clarify, I am playing no-limit hold'em (NLHE) cash games almost exclusively while the World Series of Poker (a series of over 50 tournaments covering all poker variants) is running at the Rio in Vegas. Hopefully this post will provide those of you unfamiliar with the game with a basic idea of how it works. Without this basic understanding, it will be difficult to comprehend most of this blog. :)
