Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the last community card called?

Answer: The River

The first three cards are called the flop and are shown at the same time. The turn is the fourth card, and it is then followed by the river, which completes your hand.

2. What is the strongest possible Hold'em starting hand is called "Pocket _____"?

Answer: Aces

Pocket Aces dominate any other hand pre-flop and are usually a favorite to win most pots.

3. Pre-flop, a King-Nine of Diamonds dominates a King-Nine of Hearts.

Answer: False

In Hold'Em poker, suits are not relevant to the strength of the five-card hand. Keeping that in mind, any two identical suited cards of different suits have identical chances of winning a pot.

4. Which of the following would be considered the worse possible Texas Hold'em starting hand?

Answer: Deuce-Seven

A deuce and a seven are the lowest two cards which are not connected. (This means that they cannot make a straight together.) Keeping that in mind, a Deuce-Three is a connector hand and is a slightly better starting hand.

5. Which starting hand is referred to as the Cowboys?

Answer: Pocket Kings

Pocket Kings are referred to as the cowboys. Pocket Deuces are referred to as Quack-Quack. Pocket Queens are referred to as the Double Skirts, and Pocket Aces are known as the rockets.

6. A straight, Ten to Ace is also known as broadway.

Answer: True

A straight, Ace to Five is known as the Wheel, and a Straight, Ten to Ace, is known as Broadway.

7. Trips are three of a kind when you have a pocket pair.

Answer: False

Trips are three of a kind when the board is paired. A set is three of a kind when you have a pocket pair. It is impossible for trips and a set to co-exist in any hand, because the person with a set has made a full house when the board pairs to give the other player trips.

8. Which famous poker player is associated with the Ten-Deuce?

Answer: Doyle Brunson

Doyle Brunson won two main events with the Ten-Deuce as his final hand. This hand is also significant to this man because to date, he has won 10 World Series Bracelets and Two Main Events. Ten-Deuce!

9. It is possible to have a suited pocket pair?

Answer: No

It is impossible to have two identical cards in your hand, because no two cards in a deck are identical.

10. What are pocket eights commonly referred to as?

Answer: Snowmen

If you see two eights next to each other, it is apparent that they do resemble snowmen. Dead snowmen, seeing as their heads are missing, but snowmen nevertheless!

Hope you enjoyed the quiz! :)
