There’s a reason it’s not called “Texas Hole ‘em”.

It's not called a "hold in one." Unless...you really gotta go but you're holding it. I dunno, this one could go either way for me.

it's simple grammar, a card protector protects your holes, you can't protect your holds

It’s from the olden days when you literally had to hold the cards in your hand

I asked ChatGPT "Hole cards or Hold cards?" and it said:

The correct term is "hole cards". In poker, the term "hole cards" refers to the two cards that are dealt face down to each player and are kept hidden from the other players at the table. They are also sometimes called "pocket cards". The term "hold cards" is sometimes used as a mistaken alternative, but it is not the correct terminology.

i love your bedazzled card protector skwid, mine is a bit more modest, honestly would have thought yours wouldn't be so pristine from all the action it must have seen
