Wild Bill Hickock, Marshal of Abilene, Kansas
Wild Bill Hickock was said to have killed more than 100 men. He made everyone check their guns at the edge of town and asked lawbreakers to move along peaceably. One day, playing poker in Deadwood South Dakota, he was shot from behind by an angry gambler. His poker hand at the time was a full house, three aces and two aits. To this day, it's called the Ted Man's Hand.
