Answers To Hold ‘em Poker Hand Trivia: Hands With Queens Or Jacks

Here are the answers to part three of my four part series on Hold ‘em poker hand nickname trivia.

Hands with a queen:

Q J  “Maverick” Taken from Maverick TV show theme song, “Livin’ on jacks and queens…”

Q 9  “Quinine” Because queen 9 sounds like Quinine.

Q 7  “Computer Hand” Calculations tell us that this is the average hand.

Q 3  “San Fransisco Busboy”   “Gay waiter”

Q 3 suited  “Posh Gay Waiter”

Hands with a jack:

J 7  Jack Daniel’s (Jack Old No. 7)

J 6  “Railroad Hand” (supposedly, repeating “Jacks and sixes” sounds like a train on its tracks)

J 5  “Motown” The “Jackson Five” released their albums through the record company ‘Motown’.

J 4  “Flat Tire” Answer to the question “What’s a jack for?”.

I hope you got them all! Look for my next post where I’ll cover poker hand nicknames for starting hands without a face card in them.
