Desculpe, Ana, Eu postei a sugestão "Raise" sem antes ver sua sugestão abaixo. Vou retirar a minha, mas poste a sua, pois acho que é isto mesmo.
Ana Vozone Jul 6, 2015:
Encontrei isto To raise is to increase the size of an existing bet in the same betting round. A player making the second (not counting the open) or subsequent raise of a betting round is said to re-raise. A player making a raise after previously checking in the same betting round is said to check-raise. The sum of the opening bet and all raises is the amount that all players in the hand must call in order to remain eligible to win the pot, subject to the table stakes rules described in the previous paragraph.

Straddle

When a player decides or says he is going to 'straddle' in a poker game, he is putting in twice the big blind before the cards are dealt. Usually, it is the player to the left of the big blind who straddles. It is basically a raise in the dark, and all players following must now call or raise the amount of the straddle bet.
