What is Ring game in Poker?
Ring Game is a term used to describe a cash game in poker (as opposed to tournament format). Since not all poker games are played with real cash, the term ring game might make more sense when describing such a format. In most cases however, ring game is used interchangeably with cash game; although cash game is used more commonly to describe this format (even for play money games).
What is Represent in Poker?
Represent means that a certain action indicates a certain type of holding. For example, we might have a very weak hand but try to represent that we have a legitimate holding by making big bets. The term is also used when discussing the meaning of our opponent’s actions. For example, if our opponent is making a small bet on the river we might say something along the lines of ‘villain is representing a mid-strength value-hand’.
What is Rebuy in Poker?
Rebuy means to purchase more chips to add to our stack. Rebuying is most commonly performed in cash games, but also makes an appearance in specific tournament formats. Rebuy tournaments allow players to purchase (rebuy) a new chip stack after running out of chips, but only while the rebuy period is still active.
What is Redraw in Poker?
A redraw is a type of draw that is formed after another draw has already completed (whether we hold that completed draw or not). For example, a possible flush might complete on the turn in Hold’em. However, that turn card gives us the one-card Ace-high flush draw. Even if our opponent had completed a flush draw on the turn, it’s less of a problem since we have the redraw to the higher flush.
