    歇後語​：​死​跟​。​意指​基礎​差​，​實力​弱​，​只能​跟風​，​難以​獨當​一面​。​源自​話​事​啤​（​沙蟹​）​玩法​，​二仔​係​最細​，​若​底牌​係​二仔​，​難有​機會贏​，​只好​跟​其他​對手​落注​，​靜待​機會​。

Means someone whose foundations are weak, who is weak in strength, or who can only be a follower but not a pioneer. Originated from poker game Five Card Stud (Show Hand); when dealt a 2 (the lowest value) as the face-down card, the only course of action is to follow along what others are betting. Literally: dealt a 2 as face-down card
