  • MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
  • PAY OFF - Calling a bet with little expectation of winning, unless the opponent is bluffing.
  • BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
