Two bullets and two black eights and the kicker unidentified. Could be any card, couldn't it? So, it is called dead man's hand, but why is it considered to be the worst poker hand?

I didn't say it was the worst hand; only the worst one that has a name. Nobody bothered to name any of the worse ones, probably because there was never any historical value to them.

Are there more worse ones? Shame they do not have historical stories attached to them. It makes good reading material.
