Legend holds that Wild Bill Hickok was shot to death during a poker game in Deadwood, South Dakota, and that the hand he held was two pair, black aces and black eights. On that most people agree. The fifth card is not known for certain but my bet is the Queen of hearts as shown here.
Thought of the idea and had some fun covering my right hand with 'fake' blood and adjusting the camera at the same time...

nice lighting and focus. The blood throws me a bit, though. If it were a bit brighter red (oxyegenated blood) instead of ketchup color, it might bring a bit more to the image, but as it stands it doesn't draw my eye as much.
