Poker lexicon:

• MUCK - [1] A collection of face-down cards near the dealer composed of discards, i.e., folded hands, burns and discards for drawing purposes. [2] To throw one's cards into the muck, thus folding.
• STACKED [DECK] - A deck that has been arranged to give one player a huge advantage. Also: RIGGED.
• ASSAULT RIFLE - In Omaha, hole cards that are A-K-4-7 of any suit(s).
• FIRE - To make the first bet in a betting round. Used to emphasize that the player bet when a check was possible, showing strength.
• 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.)
• CAP - To cap the betting is to make the last permitted raise in a round.
