How to unlock the Dead Man's Hole achievement

    Simply have any black Ace and any black 8 dealt to you at the beginning of a hand, and then win that hand. The hand can end at any time. As long as you win or tie, you get the achievement.

    BigWiIIieStyIe says you can almost guarantee a win in Practice or Single Player by going all in when you get your black A-8 cards. The AI usually folds.

    The achievement name is a reference to the Dead Man's Hand held by Wild Bill Hickok when he was murdered in 1876.

    AP E JCActually, I got this with a black ace on the table cards, so I'm assuming they have to be in your final whole hand, not just in the beginning.

    TheDude722Interesting, since your "hole cards" are the two you're dealt before the flop. What were your two?

    AP E JCYes, I imagined so, that's why i was so surprised when it popped. My initial cards were an ace of hearts and the 8 of spades. Maybe the fact that I had another ace as a hole card triggered the achievement.

    TheDude722That's fortunate for you! Sloppy programming all around on this game. I prefer their WSOP game over this turd. Even the original Full House Poker was better.

    XenYes, I miss the Full House Poker.

    BUZZARDBAIT1974especially since i bought a bunch of felts and cards and spent a bunch of money on the last one and then they shut it down. it was way better. they made the tables smaller and no multi table tournaments. no texas heat. this one is all right, its just not even close to the other 2.

    BigWiIIieStyIeThis can be done in Practice, just unlocked 7 2 this way in head to head. Better because you don't lose chips and the computer almost always folds.

    **Update, just won it in the second Single Player mode vs the henchmen, same deal go all in and they normally fold before the flop.

    TheDude722Glad you enjoyed it. If you like achievements that reference other things, check out Embers of Mirrim. See if you can guess what most of their titles or descriptions refer to. Then check my blog about the ones I knew.
