Jeg har længe gået og tænkt på hvor mange hænder i poker der kan navngives med et øgenavn.
Hvis ikke alle kombinationer af kort er navngivet, syntes jeg det kunne være lidt sjovt at vi allesammen skrev hvilke hænder vi kalder hvad.
Her syntes jeg helt bestemt også der er plads til danske navne.
Jeg kan på stående fod nævne f.eks:
AA: Pocket rockets a.k.a American airlines
KK: Cowboys
QQ: Ladies
KJ: Kojack
K9: En "Dog" (eller en hund)
K8: Kate
J5: Jackson Five a.k.a Motown
95: Dolly (parton)
77: Walking sticks
55: Speed limit
T2o: Doyle Brunson
AK: Anna Kournikova aka Big slick
88: snowmen
44 - midtlife crises
Og der er sikkert en million andre...
Hvis i skriver jeres forslag, vil jeg opdatere dette indlæg, så de kommer til at stå sammen.

Synes da personligt min selvopfundne udgave af K2 er meget bedre
K2 = "The mountain" :D
44 må vel være "midlife crisis" og ikke "midtlife crises" med mindre der er tale om en hybrid mellem dansk og engelsk samt mellem ental og flertal.
Ja, jeg kunne ikke dy mig - "get it right or forget it, right ?"
Det er meget meget vigtigt, "AA: Pocket rockets a.k.a American airlines"
Det er udelukkende hvis man har 2 røde esser, at det kan kaldes American Airlines! Det er meget vigtig information!
