community cards

Table's public cards

In poker games like Texas Hold'em, community cards are the shared cards dealt face-up in the center of the table that all players use in combination with their private hole cards to make their best hand.

The community cards are revealed in stages—the flop, turn, and river: The ace on the river completed the community cards and gave her a straight.
