Flush won't go in think it's "RIVER"

Only word remotely “watery” is river, but I just do not “get it”. Explain, please

[hopelessinit]

Where does poker fit with river? I have completed the grid and river is the only “watery” word. Can anyone explain? Thanks

When playing texas hold em poker. You get 2 cards dealt and then the flop of three cards that everyone uses to make a hand. I can't remember whether the "River" card is the next card added to the flop (4th) or the 5th card - but it is a term used for one of them!

Thanks, I think I get it! Never heard of Texas poker. Thanks anyway for trying to enlighten me.
