Slowroll

When someone leads you to believe that you have won a hand in poker, but then turns over a very strong hand. Usually is only done with a winning hand to irritate an opponent who still believes he holds the best hand.

Keep in mind that this cannot be considered slowrolling if there is another player to act after him. Then it is called "hollywooding" and is acceptable if you are trying to keep a third player in the pot.

Belly Buster

Belly Buster is the same meaning for an inside straight draw. Missing one card to make the 5 cards sequence. It is more often called a gut shot.

A Double Bellybuster in when you have two inside straight draws. For example, if you are holding a T9 and the board is K Q 7 6.

Pot committed

Pot committed means that the pot is laying you such good odds that (you cannot fold) and you have to call.

If you have invested half of your stack in the pot and another player puts you all-in, then you will get pot odds of at least 3:1, meaning you need only to win 25% of the time to break even.

BUT If you are certain that you are beat, it is never correct to call the river.
