    2 pair, aces & 8's with the queen of hearts kicker, Wild Bill's last hand before getting shot.

    How can it help you in poker?
    Well, sometimes in poker, 2 pair will get ya killed!
    "Hey Boz, whay are you Canadians so polite"
    "Oh that, it's purely economics"
    "Economics???....what??"
    "Yeah, it doesn't cost anything to have manners, & quite often it pays off"

    game when he was murdered. He was shot in the back.Finally there are some sites which can help you
