I just got a royal flush and I realized its the only straight/royal flush I have had since I started playing back in August. I was curious and looked up the odds and its was ridiculous how small the chances were. I got 649,740 to 1.

I was wondering how many royal/straight flushes the people here who have been playing for huge periods of time for many years have gotten.

Like can you guys keep track, or what? I"m just curious as to how many the people here have gotten since they started playing.

Ive been playing for over 10 years now online and live just a little less time.
Royal flushes I have probably had about 20, only one live though. As for straight flushes, well I wouldn"t know but a lot , guess over 100+. However I do play Omaha a lot so much more likely there.

3 Royal flushes.Once on a play money table on Stars when I was learning the game, once in an on line tourney, and once live, last week at the APAT pub team tourney, unfortunately I was short stacked at the time, and my double up only took me to 4K!

I got a Royal Flush in my local G casino in a cash game. They generously give a bottle of champagne to every player that achieves this.
This has been going on for at least the last two years. You can either collect it later to take home, or more commonly you open it at the time and share it with the other players at the table.
I was once at a table at 3am when the lucky lady that got the Royal happened to be  teetotal. Me and two others shared it out and I ended up leaving my car and getting a taxi home  :D

Maybe it"s just me, but I tend to just forget about them. More likely to recall suckouts or other more interesting hands. I seem to recall a RF online last year where the 9 also came on the board. Also think I had one online last week but the river came and went so quickly that I wasn"t sure & didn"t bother to check. May have had others live or online but don"t recall them.

I generally get a straight flush about once a month on average, but that"s cos I play live most nights - I assume people playing mainly online would get a lot more.

Best royal flush bad beat goes to RaggieMaggie, who had a royal flush and had to split the pot!
