It's been a year since a hand that is still talked about today was played on the streaming cash game produced by Hustler Casino Live. The moment, which was given the title "The Hand" made J 4 hand legendary, but the domino effect gradually led to a ban and a refund, and a federal investigation with fraud charges.
Many have begun to call this hand the greatest hand of all time, but its reach is truly admirable. From the poker media, the moment gradually made its way into the mainstream media, and Chad Holloway put the nail in the coffin of it all. In fact, the longtime poker journalist and comic book aficionado found a reference to this very hand in one of this year's X-men .
The villain Gambit, who appears in the comics as a character who can turn everyday objects into deadly weapons, took care of that. Poker cards are often a favourite weapon for him, and he used them in this case, pulling a lethal weapon from his pocket during a duel - namely a club jack and a four of hearts!

Whether it's coincidence or not judge for yourself, but it certainly hasn't escaped the watchful eye of the viewer that the X-Men have delivered a little poker easter egg in the past. Back in 2009, in the X-Men Origins Wolverine movie, Daniel Negreanu actually blinks at the poker table in the scene where Wolverine meets Gambit . Did you notice him?
