Poker dictionary:

MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
FACE CARD - A jack, queen or king (a card with a face on it, not joker).
FORCED BET - In some stud games a player may be required to make a bet to start the action on the first card. This is similar conceptually to blinds and antes, but in this case is dependent on the cards shown rather than player position. Usually the weakest hand is forced to bet.
BACK DOOR - Applies to a hand that was made in the last card or two, specifically not a hand the player was originally planning on having. Most often applied to straights and flushes.
RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
GOOD GAME - A game with players worse than you so that you can expect to win a lot of money.
