The phrase "high stakes" is derived directly from a gambling term. In gambling, a stake is the quantity of money or other goods that is risked on the outcome of some specific event. A high-stakes game is one in which, in the player's personal opinion, a large quantity of money is being risked.

Poker tournaments are easier for a beginner to learn but they also require a large time commitment and your winnings will be very inconsistent. Cash games on the other hand offer much less demands on your time and your winnings will be a lot more consistent.

MTT stands for Multi-Table Tournament, which is a poker tournament with players filling multiple tables, as opposed to single table tournaments/sit & gos. The World Series of Poker Main Event is perhaps the most famous multi-table tournament in the world.
