The river is the fifth and final community card dealt face-up. It completes the board and gives every player still in the hand their last chance to improve their five-card combination.

Pot odds are the ratio of the current pot size to the cost of a call. They help you decide whether the expected value of completing your hand justifies putting in the chips required.

Blinds are forced bets posted by the two players left of the dealer button before cards are dealt. The small blind is half the big blind and both seed the pot each hand.

A check-raise is when a player checks on their first action, then raises after an opponent bets in the same round. It is a deceptive move used to build the pot or apply pressure.

KYC stands for Know Your Customer — the identity verification step your account goes through before withdrawals are processed. It usually means submitting a valid ID document.

A continuation bet, or c-bet, is a follow-up bet made by the pre-flop aggressor on the flop. It represents continued hand strength regardless of whether the flop actually helped your hand.
