Added a couple. Not sure about smart, marks, unsuspecting victims, or dupe. What do these phrases mean?

Maybe too obscure. You play a mark (or a dupe) if you're a con artist, in this case using play to mean string along, fool or take advantage of.

I'll give the dog a bone.
Thanks for those! A few I'm not familiar with, and some of those I think fall under the umbrella of "game." But the rest have been added.
