The Online Poker Guy

Do you know the nicknames of the main poker hands? This post is the first of a four part series on Hold ‘em poker hand nickname trivia. This first trivia quiz will cover the nicnames for the poker hands as they apply to wired pairs.

I listed the first one that probably everyone knows just to get the ball rolling. Then I put a corresponding blank for each word that’s needed for the rest. Following posts will include poker hand trivia for hands with a king, a queen, or a jack in them, as well as those starting hands without face cards. Good luck!

A A  “Pocket Rockets” or “_________” or “_________  ________”

K K  “__________” or “_______ _______” or “______ ________”

Q Q  “______” or “_______  ________” or “_____ ___ ____”
(Hint: I stayed away from the really derogatory nicknames.)

J J   “_______” or “__________” or “__ - ______”

T T  “________” 

9 9  “_____ ________” or “_________  _________”
or “_________ __________” or “_______  _________”

8 8  “_________” or “______  ______” or “_________  ________”
or “______  ___________”

7 7  “_________ _________” or “___________  _________“
or “________ _______”

6 6  “___________” or “___________  ____”

5 5  “____________” or “________ ________” or “______ _____”

4 4  “___________” or “_____________”
 
3 3  “________” or “________”

See if you can get them all. I’ll have the answers in my next post.
