Beer hand

Beer hand

The beer hand is considered the worst hand in Poker Texas Hold'em as it has the lowest chance of winning of all possible hands. It is generally a 7 2 offsuit, though sometimes a 7 2 suited is called a beer hand too. One of its main weaknesses is that it needs at least four community cards to form a straight. As a result of its weakness it is given this title because if you win with it, it's time to buy everyone a beer [cite web
