** Historical Note: “Aces and Eights” became known as the “Dead Man’s Hand” because it was the hand of cards that Wild Bill Hickok held when he was shot in the back of the head during a poker game in Nuttal and Mann’s Saloon in Deadwood, South Dakota. His full had was two aces, two eights, and fifth card varies from story to story with the strongest story being the Queen of hearts.
