Drop

Full explanation

To drop means to fold your hand in cash games, forfeiting the pot.

Explanation. If you choose not to continue in a hand, you “drop” and fold your cards face-down. This ends your involvement in that deal, and you release your claim to the pot. In cash‑game etiquette, dropping decisively keeps game pace and prevents hesitation. Understanding when to drop avoids minor equity loss and maintains session flow.
