He was holding what came to be known as Dead Man's Hand which was 2 aces and 2 eights. I wonder what the odd card was though.

Jack of Diamonds... (good old song)

"On August 2, 1876, Wild Bill entered a poker game in a saloon in Deadwood, Dakota Territory and for the first time sat with his back to an open door. Jack McCall put a bullet through the back of Wild Bill's head at 4:10 p.m. His card hand held an ace of spades, ace of clubs, two black eights - clubs and spades - and the jack of diamonds. This became known as aces and eights - the dead man's hand."

The Texas Education Agency gave one of our local school district an academically unacceptable rating.

The Supt makes $300,000 a year.
