These are the 25 frozen terms used throughout PLO Camp, in English and Chinese. "Frozen" means each concept has exactly one Chinese rendering and the common alternatives are deliberately not used — Chinese PLO material tends to carry three or four names for the same idea, and having them coexist is worse than any single choice. Each entry gives the term, the Chinese we use, the renderings we avoid, and the passage from the course text where the term is first taught.
What replaces them: your draws get bigger than anything you have seen (a four-card hand can flop a wrap, a straight draw with far more outs than an open-ender — that is C14 to C17), the nut hand matters more than the strong hand, and position gets more valuable, not less. That is the rest of this camp.
Renderings we do not use: 包裹听牌、包围听牌、环绕听牌、缠绕听牌
Suits. Double-suited (two suits, two cards each) beats single-suited beats rainbow. Three or four cards of one suit is a penalty, not a bonus.
Renderings we do not use: 双花色、两门同花牌、双花手牌
And one disqualifier that cuts across all four: a dangler — a card that pairs nothing, shares no suit, and sits too far from the others to make a straight with them. A hand with a dangler is a three-card hand wearing a fourth card, and you still have to use exactly 2 cards.
Renderings we do not use: 孤张、闲张、挂张、累赘牌
Connectedness. How tightly the four ranks sit together, and where the gaps are. A rundown is four ranks close enough that the hand makes wraps.
Renderings we do not use: 连牌、顺连、下拉牌、顺子牌
Nuttiness. Not "how strong", but "when this hand makes something, is it the best possible version of it?" An ace-high flush draw and a low flush draw carry the same equity and completely different money.
Renderings we do not use: 坚果度、坚果程度
The reason this matters more here than the raw percentages suggest: good aces flop something extra — a set with a flush redraw, a nut flush draw over a made hand, a freeroll where you cannot lose and might win the whole pot. Bad aces flop one pair on a board that has passed them by. Same preflop label, different game after the flop.
Renderings we do not use: 免费局、免费翻滚、空手套
Same hand, same opponent ranks, 4.9 points, and no simulation noise anywhere near it. That is a blocker, and it is why the suits in your hand matter even in the hands where you never make a flush.
Renderings we do not use: 挡牌、屏蔽牌、封锁牌
That last number is the one to keep. Pot-limit cannot get all the money in preflop from a normal stack, which is why the stack-to-pot ratio (SPR) is a preflop decision even though it is a postflop word. C5 picks it up from here.
Renderings we do not use: 底池筹码比、筹码池比、筹底比
With that denominator fixed, here is the chance that at least one of your outs arrives by the river. This is what we call the hit probability:
Renderings we do not use: 中牌率、击中率、成牌率、中牌概率
This is the definition of Omaha, not a heuristic. Our evaluator enforces it: it scores all 6 two-card pairs from your hand against all 10 three-card triples from the board — 60 combinations per hand — and takes the best one (our own Omaha equity engine).
Renderings we do not use: 权益、净胜率、权益值
9♦5♠4♥3♠ on 6♥7♦9♠: 13 outs, of which 0 are nut outs. Every single card that completes your straight also completes a better one for somebody.
Renderings we do not use: 坚果补牌、大牌补张、坚果出路
The thing that takes your stack in Omaha is not holding a non-nut draw. It is holding a draw that a lot of the hands still betting have crushed. We give that a number and call it the dominated share: out of a stack-off proxy range — hands with two pair or better on this flop, or a big draw of their own — the fraction that hold you to 35% or less. Sampled 800 hands per situation, seed 4,040,404, every match-up enumerated exactly:
Renderings we do not use: 支配率、压制份额、被压制比例、被支配比例
Measured against a stack-off proxy range — hands that already have two pair or better on this flop, or a big draw of their own, 800 of them sampled — the thirteen-out hand is worth 26.3% and the eight-out hand 35.1%.
Renderings we do not use: 对手范围、全下范围、推筹码范围
You can compute. Legal raise sizes, pot odds, and the ratio your action leaves behind.
Renderings we do not use: 池底赔率、彩池赔率、底池几率
Nut shift: of the possible turn cards, the fraction after which the flop's nuts is no longer the nuts. Pure board arithmetic — nobody's hand is involved, so we enumerate it exactly.
Renderings we do not use: 动态度、坚果变动率、坚果转移率、坚果漂移
Draw density: the fraction of random four-card hands that flop a big draw here. Sampled, 20,000 hands per board.
Renderings we do not use: 牌面湿度、听牌浓度、湿度值
At a ratio of 4 or below, decide whether to check-raise as if you were deciding whether to put the stack in, because the maximum raise is the stack.
Renderings we do not use: 过牌加注、让牌加注、过牌再加注
River K♥8♥3♥2♠7♦. We deal opponents hands that have two pair or better here — hands that would actually be putting money in — and count each holding's win share — the share of the pot it takes down, ties split — over 40,000 deals per cell. Read across: one opponent, then two, three, four.
Renderings we do not use: 获胜份额、赢率份额、胜出比例
Having a redraw is not the same as being freerolled. Of your 9 flush outs only 4 leave you holding the best possible hand — the rest arrive on boards where somebody else can hold something better. The free roll here is real because he can never win, not because your redraw is clean.
Renderings we do not use: 后备听牌、再抽牌、重抽听牌
The reason this matters more here than the raw percentages suggest: good aces flop something extra — a set with a flush redraw, a nut flush draw over a made hand, a freeroll where you cannot lose and might win the whole pot. Bad aces flop one pair on a board that has passed them by. Same preflop label, different game after the flop.
Renderings we do not use: A 高同花听、最大同花听
That is what a combo draw count has to look like: a card is counted once, and it counts as the better of the two hands it makes. Our counter reports the three parts separately and checks the arithmetic itself, because an error of one in each part cancels out in the total and nothing would look wrong.
Renderings we do not use: 复合听牌、联合听牌、双听牌
What the price asks. Half pot needs 25.0%, three-quarters needs 30.0%, a full pot needs 33.3%. That is how often your bluff catch has to be good — not how often he is bluffing, how often you win.
Renderings we do not use: 抓诈唬、接诈唬
"Ask which nuts" is only useful if the question has an answer, and it does — the same enumeration as the previous page, read one level deeper. Sort every two-card combination by strength, and for each rung count how often a random four-card hand reaches it. That list is a nut ladder.
Renderings we do not use: 坚果排行、坚果名次表、坚果序列
We ran the scripted opponent for 120 hands against a fixed probe — it calls whenever it faces a bet and alternates check and bet when nobody has — and counted every point where a player is asked to act. 505 decision points; 113 of the 120 hands went all the way to the river. Of those 505 points, 269 came back with a verdict. That is a judgement coverage of 53.3%.
