Poker slang:

TELL - Any personal mannerisms that reveal the quality of one's hand. E.g., constantly looking at one's hole cards is often a tell of a poor hand. (Some players, knowing this, will at times check their hole cards when they have a great hand and don't need to look.)
TRIPS - Three of a kind. In Hold'em the term SET is used when two of the three cards are hole cards.
CHASE - To continue in a hand, often at poor odds, in the hopes of catching a much better hand. "He called, chasing the flush.".
HIT - To make a hand or catch a card or cards that improves one's hand. "I hit a gut-shot draw on the river."
MILES OF BAD ROAD - Three of a kind. Prefixed with a number, 3*<N>, to indicate 3 <N>s. Thus "24 miles of bad road" is 3 eights, etc. (This obviously doesn't work for face cards.)
RAIL - A barrier dividing the card playing area from a public area.
