Poker argot:

DOOR [CARD] - A player's first upcard in stud games.
RUSH - A winning streak. Also "ON A RUSH".
BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first. The theory being that if somehow the cards are marked (illegally) no one will know what card will next be dealt, only what card will be burned. This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
SPLIT [OPENERS] - In draw poker, to discard one or more openers, usually to draw to a straight or flush. Normally requires the opener to declare the act and retain the discards so that the act of opening can later be validated.
STACKED [DECK] - A deck that has been arranged to give one player a huge advantage. Also: RIGGED.
POCKET ROCKETS - In Hold'em, a pair of aces for hole cards.
