Dead Man's Bluff?

It was the story title for one of the comics I was reading, and the situation was as follow:

A hit man is pointing the gun to our unconscious hero and ready to shoot him.

What is meant by this title: "Dead Man's Bluff"?

Thanks in advance.

I think it's a play on the children's game "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blindman%27s_bluff%28game%29" (or Buff). In this case, it may be a dead man who is "it."
