A cooler is when you have a good hand and it runs to a better hand that dominates it. KK running to AA for example.

a cooler can be when two big hands run into each other

example AA vs KK all in pre flop

a cooler card can be when a card comes that cools the action as well like when you have your opponents range crushed and there are possible draws, most often flush draws that for some reason dont make up any of his range or barely any sometimes you have to try to build the pot before a cooler card comes making it difficult to get chips

generally people will be talking about bid hands vs. big hands, but it will be easy to tell which they mean

+ev means it is a profitable move... - ev not...

AA v KK is not a cooler.... it is called a trainwreck...

And yes... look in the beginners Q's or google these things.

BI is a prefix which means two..for example bicycle, and bisexuals like both genders

Cooler is the thing that keeps your drinks and meats cold.....Usually people take them to the beach

More questions:
" The regs are not the ones HUDs are designed for....."

What does "regs" and "HUD" means?

It sounds like a software?

A reg is a regular player at given stakes, HUD stands for Heads Up Display which gives you data about your opponents.

Check the Internet Poker forum, I'm sure there is a lot of discussion there. Hold 'Em Manager and Poker Tracker have built-in HUD's but I think there are other choices out there, some free. I use Vista (LOOOOOL) and my experience with Poker Tracker 3 has been a nightmare but I hear HE Manager is good. These run about $100 but you can do a lot with them so they are a good value.
