Poker lexicon:

• 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.
• NICKEL - Five dollars, usually represented by a red casino check.
• MAIN POT - The main pot, as related to one or more side pots, when there are one or more all-in player(s). The main pot is the one in which all active players participate.
• COMMUNITY CARDS - Cards that are available for every player to use in making a hand. Usually dealt face up somewhere in the middle of the table.
• FIRE - To make the first bet in a betting round. Used to emphasize that the player bet when a check was possible, showing strength.
• MARKED CARDS - Cards that have been (illegally) altered so that their value can be read from the back.
