I translated some of the jargon:

NLHE: no limit hold'em x/y--size of the blinds, the ante you pay before seeing the cards in hold'em.

grinders--someone who plays a lot of poker and makes a little bit of money. to make a lot of money you have to "grind" out a bunch of wins over a long period of time.

the nuts--best hand possible to win a hand of poker buyin--amount of $ you are allowed to start a game at a table with.

PLO--pot limit omaha, a kind of poker

EV--expected value

2p2--popular poker forum Two Plus Two
