A blind player bets without looking at their cards. In highstakes rooms, betting blind can be a pressure tactic — you wager half what a seen player would, but you play with incomplete information.

A sideshow is a private comparison between two seen players. Both players reveal only to each other; the weaker hand must fold. At highstakes tables, sideshow requests can shift the whole pot dynamic fast.

Chaal is the act of calling a bet to stay in the round. As a seen player, your chaal amount is at least double what a blind player pays, keeping the pot growing consistently throughout a highstakes session.

AK47 is a variation where Aces, Kings, Fours and Sevens act as wild cards. Highstakes rooms running AK47 produce bigger hand combinations and sharper swings in a single round.
