The term for the initial bet made in a poker hand is called the "ante" or "blinds." The specific term used depends on the type of poker being played. In games with an ante, all players contribute a small predetermined amount to the pot before each hand begins. In games with blinds, two players sitting to the left of the dealer position (or a single player, in the case of heads-up play) are required to make mandatory bets called the small blind and the big blind, respectively.
