So. What's missing?

Nice, thanks for doing this!

I would add:
- the r stands for rainbow in 8K4r
- Is LAP really loose passive or is it LP? Or both?
- MAWB is really middle aged black guy? Its not MABG? Genuinely asking because I've never seen these types of acronyms until I started posting here
- I always thought BB = big bet (from limit holdem) = 2x big blind = 2x bb (bb = big blind)
- SD can also mean showdown

OTTH - On To The Hand
TL;DR (tl;dr) - too long; didn't read

CS = calling station

ES = effective stacks

(V)NH = (very) nice hand

SDV = showdown value

It might be obvious from reading the list and extrapolating, but in the interest of completeness you could include 4! and 5! in there.

Also while OP is usually Original Poster, sometimes I see it used to mean overpair.

I also sometimes see an "x" used to mean "check" as in "x/c, x/r", etc. ("Call" is always a c.)

I would use L/P for loose/passive and T/P for tight/passive.

oop = Out of Position
ip = in position (not often used)
v1, v2, v3, ... = villain 1, villain 2, villain 3, etc.
LoL = Little Old Lady (not often used)

o = off suit (or just "off" if shortened

s = suited

r = rainbow

------------------

2tone = flop has 2 cards of the same suit

Monotone= flop has all cards of the same suit

BDFD = back door flush draw

BDSD= back door straight draw

BDRFD = back door royal flush draw

Mhig = my hand is good

PP = pocket pair

BTN = button, i.e. The player with has the dealer button for the hand

LJ = low jack, player who acts 3 before the BTN

You have CO, HJ in your list but not descriptions

CO = cut off, player who acts before BTN

HJ = high jack, player who acts 2 before BTN

SPR - stack-pot ratio
PE - pot equity
x/r, x/c, x/f - check-call check-raise, check/fold to me
CiB - click it back - re-raise the minimum
you might throw in "grunch" if we're looking at slang - to offer an opinion in a thread without reading any of the preceding comments
PAHWM - play a hand with me

also I guess:
PFR - pre-flop raise %
VPIP - voluntary $ put in pot %
which as someone who used to play a lot of online, I can't really stop thinking with.

GII = get it in/go all-in.

*Great list so far.

LAP always bugs me. What does the 'A' stand for? It's not really an acronym, it is just like that to mirror TAG/LAG.

AINEC - And It's Not Even Close
ROR - Risk Of Ruin (should the 'O' be lowercase?)
GSSD - GutShot Straight Draw
GOAT - Greatest Of All Time

Please enter MILF, BBC, and NTTIAWWT k thnx

BBBJ or ATM, lol, joking aside.





Why no OBG = old black guy = owg = old white guy

YBG = young black guy.


Honestly, that's the reason, it's ridiculous to abbreviate every single thing. You guys are likely not typing up firggin threads on a phone, so you have the time to not abbreviate super common accronyms. A lot of you probably can hit 60+ WPM and there is really no excuse not to type those extra words. I've been smacking over 100+ since I was 12.

I see no excuse why you can't type words out.

I'm going to assume loose & passive so you don't confuse it with late position, either way, how hard is it to type it up.

Added some of these. Will do the rest after work, as I need to get going. FWIW (CWIDT?) I'm only adding ones that are germane to poker strat discussions , not ones that are general internet-speak.

Well, if you're making it a thing.

TID - take it down
RB -rebuy
AO - Add-on
GSD - Gutshot draw
ISD - inside straight draw
OPP opponent
OTB - on the button (this would be hilarious to abbreviate for every position)
ROR - risk of ruin
V-bet - value bet
vpip - voluntarily put into pot
top - theoerem of poker
VWP - very well played
WK - weak

what about the one started by this forum...

DUCY - do you see why

it even has an urban dictionary entry

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ducy

GG - good game

That's not poker related but more just normal slang. But I do use it even in talking to people at the table. I'll sometimes say GG to tilt a reg.

You and I are truly brothers from another mother, I was thinking EXACT SAME JOKE

Though NTTIAWWT really should be defined.

NTTIAWWT - not that there is anything wrong with that

Same. Lol

Play a Hand with Me

HWSNBN

pretty sure if this goes on the list, it should just be that. nothing else.

BMW = big money waster
ABI = Another Blithering Idiot ( some think average buy -in)
FF - frequent flyer
