Pass

In:Poker

Definitions

  1. (1) This is when you decline to bet, at which point you must discard your hand and forfeit any chance of winning the pot. In a pass-and-out game, this differs from a check, because a player who passes must fold. (2) Decline to call a wager, at which point you must discard your hand and have no further interest in the pot.
