Flop

By Erik Arneson, About.com Guide

Definition: The first three community cards in Texas Hold 'Em Poker, laid face up on the table all at the same time and shared by all players still in the pot.
Examples:
Charlie was excited because he held an AK in his hand, but he became very nervous when two 10s turned up on the flop.
