Default New to 2+2 Forums, some q\'s

So I've been reading around for about a week now, and I have a few questions for nicknames, can't think of them off the top of my head right now but is there any post(I tried looking) that explains all the abbreviations, acronyms, and nicknames?

some that I've encountered:

c-bet
lrr = limp re-raise??
BB = Big Blind ??
bb = big bet ??

How do we distinguish between Big Bet and Big Blind. Seems some use both interchangeably.

Help?

Thanks

I believe bb = big blind for use in no limit, and BB = big bet for use in limit.

Generally true, yes. If you're dealing with a dinosaur who talks of NLHE in "Poker Tracker big bets" (PTBB; 2 BBL) then you'd want to clarify their use of the abbrevation.

I typically use BBL and BBet when there's any room for misinterpretation.
