Two. One in hold'em and one in stud hi/lo. Funny to win just half the pot with the best possible high hand. But the last one was over a year ago. Time for number three.

2 royals here. My first Royal rocked, if I was seated at a bad beat jackpot table I would be with a nice bankroll by now, it was against a straight flush, and a nice pot, about $15.
My 2nd Royal sucked big time, I've flopped the royal flush by limping with KTs into a multiway pot, I was the button, and I bet half the pot, everybody folded, so sad...

Posted by M3turbo: I don't count any more but I aprox get 4/100K hands.
M3turbo, you get a Royal flush once every 25k hands? Lucky bugger
I think I got it twice, once play money on party poke and the other pokerstars $1 or $5 sng.
Oh sorry, I was just talking str8 flush but I love suitet con+1gappers so I guess I get it often but as I read somewhere " You gotta be in it to win it "

i would have checked it. lol
LOL, the problem is, this particular day, I was a bit drunk and playing loose-agressive, at least 3 players were calling stations, so, I was getting lots of action, even with the scariest of boards, so a check in this case would be suspicious. Guess I can blame Murphy's Law, lol.
------------
Anybody know the odds of getting the Royal?
1 in 650.000 (aprox)

I ha my first one last week, could not believe my eyes at first, I made $10 with the hand, but I hoped for more, but i'm happy it happend in a cash table and not in a tourney or sit&go
I hit it 2 times since I played online poker, one on a ring game at Merge network & was rewarded $25 for lol wanted more ... & the other one there too but at a Sit & Go short handed game.
