Ice ( poker )
A cold deck (A deck, presumably with preset hands in it (usually
with several good hands,
the best of which will go to the dealer or his confederate),
surreptitiously substituted by a cheat for the deck he is supposed
to be dealing.). So called because, after cards are dealt for
awhile,
they warm a bit to the touch, while a cold deck actually feels
cool, or, by extension, like ice.
