Just doing a little poker history browsing on the Internet now. Here’s five epic poker hands that I found. Most of these are WSOP hands:

1. Doyle Brunson Wins WSOP Back-To-Back With 10-2

Technically, this is two poker hands but we’ll leave it as one for this article. Know forever known as Doyle Brunson’s hand, ten-deuce is an absolute trash hand, but Doyle managed to win two World Series Main Events with this hand. Talk about putting your opponent on tilt.

2. Hachem’s 3-7 at the 2005 WSOP Main Event

In the final hand against Steve Dannenman, Hachem flopped a straight when 4-5-6 came on the board. Dannenman had A-3. Hachem slowplayed it, checking and then check-raising Dannenman a little when Dannenman bet. An ace came on the turn and all the money went into the pot. The only hope Dannenman had was a tie if a 7 came on the river, which it didn’t.

3. Aces and Eights- Dead Man’s Hand

Ok, not the most positive thing to think about, but Wild Bill Hickock, a famous Western sheriff, held this hand when he was playing five card draw. A man shot Hickock in the back, killing him. This is why it is now forever known as Dead Man’s Hand.
