One-eyed royals
Published July 16th, 2008 in UncategorizedThe phrase one-eyed royals is poker jargon referring to the Jack of Spades, Jack of Hearts and King of Diamonds. The terminology results from the depiction of the royal on the card being in profile, resulting in only one eye being visible.
Frequently used in home games of draw poker as wilds because these three cards are the only cards of differing rank and suit in a common deck that share an identifying trait.
