"1 - rock: a player who only plays tight hands"- I think we all know what he's trying to say here but just to clarify a Rock is a player that plays tight throughout the game and when he enters a pot be wary because he's more than likely got the nuts..

3. Actor knocked out by Doyle Brunson- I believe that would be Matt Damon.. He and Ed Norton were playing in the WSOP as a way to promote Rounders.. I believe the hand he was knocked out on he had Pocket Kings and Doyle had Pocket Aces

4b- "Live Game"- I believe this term in this conontation describes a game that involves several loose and very agressive players with a whole lot of action..
