bring-in

Yield as revenue

A bring-in is something or someone brought in from outside—a hired expert, an imported item, or in poker, the forced opening bet required of the player showing the lowest card.

The term emphasizes external origin: They hired a bring-in to handle the crisis.

In stud poker: The deuce has the bring-in.
