What is Muck in Poker?
Muck means to return our hole cards to the dealer, usually without showing. Primarily this happens at showdown; our hand has lost and we slide our cards back to the dealer without showing the table. However, the term muck can also be used to describe a fold at any point in a hand (since we perform the same action of sliding our cards back to the dealer). The word muck is also used as a noun to describe the pile of cards that have been sent back to the dealer i.e. “he tossed his cards into the muck”.
