Nuts (alt)

Having the 'Nuts' in poker is having the best hand you can have in the game. No matter what hand other players may have, the nuts cannot be beaten.

e.g. "I had pocket jacks on a board with Jack of spades, 4 of spades, 6 of hearts, 9 of spades and Jack of Diamonds. Some players might have had flushes, but with Quad jacks, I had the nuts!"
