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.)
BURN - To discard the top card of the deck prior to dealing, usually done for every dealing round except the first.

This makes marked cards less of an advantage, hence tends to reduce cheating.
BRODERICK CRAWFORD - In Hold'em, hole cards of 10-4. From the 1950s TV series "Highway Patrol", starring Broderick Crawford.
CUT - To break the deck into 2 stacks of at least 5 cards each. Usually performed by the player to the dealer's right to insure that the the deck is not stacked.
RAISE - To wager more than the minimum required to call, forcing other players to put in more money as well.
