The letter M is the thirteenth letter in the Latin alphabet. Its name in English is em.

The letter M derives its shape from the Phoenician Mem, via the Greek Mu. Semitic Mem originally pictured water, in all probability. It is speculated that Semitic people working in Egypt c. 2000 BC borrowed a hieroglyph for Water that was first used for an alveolar nasal (/n/, because of the Egyptian word for Water, "n-t". This same symbol became used for M in Semitic, because their word for water began with that sound.

"M" is the standard notation for mass, as in E=Mc^2

You're stack divided by the small blind and big blind combined equals your M. Should dictate the type of poker you are playing in tournament play.

M is the ratio equal to your stack divided by the total of all the forced bets (antes+blinds)

So, if you hold 3375 and the blinds/antes are 150/300 with a 25 ante, and you are playing at a 9-player table, your M = 5
(3375/675)
