Not really. Not that I can see anyway.
There are bits 'n' pieces of this all over the place, but nothing in the Beginners Circle (where arguably it is needed most!). FyrFytr's post covers a glossary of terms, but not really the abbreviations used daily in the posts on FTR. Humph's sticky only really covers the table/positional ones.
Just trying to save the peeps some time and effort!
I've thought of a couple more as well
FT = Final Table
ahhh .... the promised land
HU = Heads-Up
TPGK = Top Pair, Good Kicker |

roffle roffle. I just read this. That was fun.
Thanks for putting this together, Staresy. Eventually, we need to consolidate all of our glossary of terms into one Sticky topic.
For now, I've made this Sticky. (Wow.. there are a lot of Stickies in here.) |

Here's a few more:
MHIG = My Hand is Good
VPIP% = Voluntary Put in the Pot %
Dwarfie= A young, british poker player that makes liberal use of stacked phone books to reach the table.
x BB/100 = winrate expressed as Big Bets per 100 hands played
STFU = Shut The F*** Up = not an expression usually found in FTR posts (we're too nice to each other to use terms like this), but certainly one you might come across in the chat box of your favourite poker site |

I have heard of people referring to a HOH chart. Is this something Santa brings you for Christmas and if yes, has anyone noticed the typo?
But seriously, what is a HOH chart? |

On the pot odds chart...What does "Two Overs" mean?..How could you have 18 outs also? Silly questions I'm sure. I'm very new to this stuff, but I will learn what I can before depositing anymore money into my account (Down $150).
Thanks,
SwanDawg |

two overs means two over cards and its easy to have 18 or more outs for example:
your cards: As Ks
his cards: 2c 2h
Board: Ts 9s Jc
here you have 18 outs...9 spades, 3 queens (one is counted in the spades category), 3 kings and 3 aces= 9+3+3+3=18 outs
