This is what I like to call the 'HavanaBanana', and trust me on that the table of locals in Las Vegas went wild when I capped it preflop with it, and flopped 229 to get a monster pot /images/graemlins/smile.gif

88 - dog balls, monkey balls

AQ was called Doyle Brunson before T2. Apparently, ol' Doyle doesn't play it.

The Montana Banana is so named because it was Proposition 92 (or maybe it was Proposition 29) that legalized gambling in Montana

K9 = Dog, caninie

I have also heard it referred to as the sawmill - because that is where you will end up working if you play it too often. Apparently.

QQ = Ladies, Broads, Dames, Bitches, <font color="blue">Four tits</font>

LOL who refers to Queens as that!?! Good one /images/graemlins/smile.gif

He claims he doesn't, but then he did play it on the WPT.

At the Silver Star Casino in Philadelphia, MS, there is a dealer whose nickname is Hooter. Evidently, he is fond of 2,3 offsuit, because everyone there refers to it as a Hooter Hand.
.
In Tunica, I've often heard it called Mississippi Slick, for reasons I take offense to! /images/graemlins/wink.gif
.
Playing one night at the Grand in Tunica, a drunk maniac re-raised me, and said-"I've got a Hooter Hand". As the flop came A 4 9, the drunk said, "if you knew what a Hooter Hand was, you'd fold, cause you're beat." She kept firing chips in the pot with her gut-shot straight draw. Fortunately for me, I'd played in Philadelphia, and knew exactly where I stood.
I had AQ, it held up, I won a nice pot, and never told the drunk that I knew exactly what she held. Sweet.
.
Also, around these parts, 63 is a Jimmy Summerfield.

such as:

72o = beer hand
Ts2s = doyle brunson

Some others...

22 = ducks
JJ = hooks
AQ = big chick
69 = big lick
92s= hey, it was suited

and my favorite...

KK = ace on the flop
