1. It's your first trip to Vegas and you end up at a table with some of the greatest poker legends of all time. They see you are a novice and are bored with the game so they decide to have a side game with you to see if you know the nicknames of the different cards. First they tell you the Ace of Spades is known as the "Death Card" but can you guess the reason? Then they each give an answer and you have to decide who is telling the truth.
    Amarillo Slim says it's because it is a black card and black is the color of death
    The Orient Express says it's because the Spade is shaped like a shovel, which is used to dig a grave
    Jesus says it's because in Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian, and French Spade is translated Pike, which was a weapon of death
    Texas Dolly says it's because in cartomancy it is the card meaning an end or conclusion to something, not necessarily a literal death


2. Next they say one card is known as the Suicide King and each gives a different answer. Who is telling the truth this time?
    The Orient Express says it's the King of Diamonds

    Texas Dolly says it's the Jack of Diamonds and Jack of Hearts
