Out of Turn ( poker )

Pertaining to a bet or raise made by a player before the action has come to him. For example, the player two positions to your right bets. While the player one position to your right contemplates what to do, you say, "I raise." You are acting out of turn and, in most clubs, your action is not binding; that is, when the action comes to you, you are not obligated to raise, or even bet. Acting out of turn is sometimes part of an angle shooter's repertoire.
