Dead man's hand According to legend, Wild Bill Hickok was shot to death in the middle of a poker game with 2 pairs: black aces and black eight's. Noone knows for sure what the kicker was, but from then on black aces and eight's has been called dead man's hand. The dead man’s hand is a slang term used in poker for a two pair of black aces and black eights, although its meaning has changed over time. The story goes that lawman and gambler “Wild Bill”. DEAD MAN'S HAND is the 28mm skirmish game by Great Escape Games. Bands of tough and wily Cowboys, stoic Lawmen, ruthless Outlaws and crazy Desperados fight for fame and respect in the Old West. With an accompanying range of 28mm miniatures and pre-painted buildings, now you can fight legendary gunfights of the historical Old West and the silver screen. Hickok had been holding a pair of eights, and a pair of Aces, which has ever since been known as the “dead man’s hand.” Hickok’s good friend, Charlie Utter, claimed the body, made the funeral arrangements and bought the burial plot. He was buried in the cemetery outside Deadwood on August 3, 1876. There are many legends and stories about the origin of this poker hand, but according to experts, the Dead Man’s Hand was named after a hand held by James Butler Hickok. Many of you will probably recognize this gentleman as Wild Bill Hickok, a folk hero of the American Old West. He was a man of many talents and a passionate poker player.
