Poker Terms - Common Phrases and Acronyms. In poker, there is practically a library of poker terms that are commonly used. For the uninitiated, these terms can sound like a completely different language, when a poker player says, 'I flopped a belly buster on a rainbow board', when they are really saying that they have an inside straight draw, after the dealer dealt the first three cards, all. An ante (pronounced 'AN-tee') is a small forced bet made by all players in a poker game, prior to the initial deal. This is different than a blind, which does not apply to all players. The word ante comes from the Latin 'ante' meaning 'before'. The bet is being done before the deal, hence the name.
If a game has an ante, every player contributes a certain, predetermined amount to the pot before each hand. It's usually a small bet. For instance, in a nickel-dime-quarter game, it might be a nickel. The important thing about antes to remember is that a player's ante doesn’t count as a bet. It's just a way of getting a pot started. : any of several card games in which a player bets that the value of his or her hand is greater than that of the hands held by others, in which each subsequent player must either equal or raise the bet or drop out, and in which the player holding the highest hand at the end of the betting wins the pot. The M factor is simply equal to stack/(small blind + big blind + total antes), where total antes is the value of the ante times the number of players at the table. The denominator of this fraction is the total number of chips it costs to stay at the table for one orbit, so M is the number of orbits you can survive without taking into account.
