What\'s your favorite Hold \'Em hole cards nickname?
 
As we've all heard there are tons of various "nicknames" for the two starting hole cards in Hold 'Em. We've all heard the standards: Pocket Rockets, Big Slick, ducks, etc. My 8 year old son knows that I play cards with the guys all the time and actually his older cousins play amongst themselves enough that he understands the basic premise of the game including various nicknames he's heard for our cards; remember, kids are like a sponge so be careful about the influence of poker around them. Never let them see it as a form of income, only for fun. Anyway, one day while playing a hand with some buddies, he walks past the table as I flip over pocket 5s to take a small pot. To my amusement, he says, "Dad, you have some seahorses", referring to the shape of the number five. So, for me, "sea horses" might be my favorite name for a hand. Give me a couple of your favorites.

P.S. I always like "A Gay Waiter" (Q,3).....A Queen with a tray.

We make up a ton of these in our game. Lately, we variously call 8 5 Chad Johnson or, more often, Ocho Cinco.

From our very not politically correct game:

Assault Rifle/Kalashnikov - AK

Rodney King - a king and a club
