Dead Man's hand is a pair of black aces and a pair of black eights, not a full house, no red aces.

So far this is the best interpretation of gambling. Especially like the use of DOF, cards are sharp. Nice pic overall.

Meets the challenge, but loses out on 'atmosphere'. I find the flat lighting uninspiring.

I think you're referring to Wild Bill Hickock. Not to knitpick but Wild Bill had two pair, Aces over eights (I think). Great photo.
