A redraw is a type of draw that is formed after another draw has already completed (whether we hold that completed draw or not). For example, a possible flush might complete on the turn in Hold’em. However, that turn card gives us the one-card Ace-high flush draw. Even if our opponent had completed a flush draw on the turn, it’s less of a problem since we have the redraw to the higher flush.

Read in poker is often used interchangeably with the word “tell”. It’s an indication that our opponent has a certain type of hand based on how he is acting and what we know about him so far. The term read can also be used in a more general sense to refer to looking at the available cards to determine what type of hand we have. The term hand reading refers to the act of putting our opponent on a range of holdings and narrowing that range as the hand progresses.

Rank in poker simply refers to the value of a certain card. It will either be a number between two and ten, or it will be the value of a face-card as in the case of the Jack, Queen, King and Ace. In most poker formats higher ranked cards are better (where Ace is usually considered high), but in low ball variants such as Razz lower ranked cards are stronger.

Poker rake is a fee taken by the poker room as payment for running a poker game. It’s usually collected as a percentage taken from each pot ranging anywhere from 0 to 10% of the total pot. Most rooms only take rake from the pot if a flop is seen; this is referred to as the ‘no flop no drop’ policy.

Pot Limit is a type of betting structure used in poker. In a pot limit game, the maximum allowable bet or raise is equivalent to the size of the pot. Omaha poker is most commonly played with a pot limit betting structure. The other two types of commonly used betting structures are no limit (bet or raise any amount) and fixed limit (betting and raising occurs in fixed increments).
