POKER INFO - PROILE - Wild Bill Hickok

dead mans hand made me some money. thanx bill.

The "Dead Man's Hand" was black aces over black eights, the the fifth card is an area of contention between three cards (in order of credability): The 5 of Diamonds (The actual card is supposedly on display in Deadwood), 9 of Diamonds, and the Queen of Clubs (On display at Ripley's Believe it or Not.) All three are supposedly reported by first hand accounts. However, the Jack of Diamonds and King of Spades have both been potrayed in movies as the "fifth" card, due to thier more "photogenic" natures.

Old Style Saloon No. 10 (saloon10.com) in Deadwood shows a 9 diamonds on their site as the card which will win you the "Deadman's Hand Bonus"

C'mon, admit it,. if it was humanly possible, you'd love to see Wild Bill go heads up with Hellmuth.

It'd be great. Well..up until he shot Phil...
