    Terminology

    At the risk of sounding naive and slow...what is PAB?

    So you know, I just realized what 'WR' is!

    I can't wait to type s/hand and that everyone will know what I mean. I will be the coolest poster , evah!

    Maybe someone could post the meanings of terms used so that newbies ,such as myself, can refer to?

    It's just that I enjoy reading threads, here but then I have to do some research elsewhere to find out what a certain term, means. I just figure that maybe a Dummies guide to casino terminology would be helpful?

    I'm in the same boat. I too very often get lost with all the abbreviations. Some how I read on and figure it out but seem to forget it a week or so later.
    Well anyway welcome to the forum secret2.

    A casinomeister glossary would be great. I like to read the threads on this great forum for fans of online gambling but sometimes it is very difficult to understand certain abbrevations and expressions. I have found out what some of them mean. For example SUB means sign up bonus I guess. B & M casino probably means brick & mortar casino. I havent found out what OP means but I guess this is the person who created a new thread. Is this correct?
    But there is another problem: sometimes strange slang expressions are used that I cannot find in my dictionary. folks, please remember that a lot of members are not native speakers and they cannot understand slang. I learned english at school and there you learn Oxford english.
