Ever had a royal?
 
My only one came about three months back, on Party. Caught it on the turn, hearts. Of course, I was playing 1/2 at the time. I bet it, two players folded, and I won a grand total of about five bucks. :rolleyes:

But with the number of hands I see a week, I figure I'm due for another one before too long.

One so far, made out ok as someone else hit the flush as well, and another had straight I think. :D

Tuff Luck 10-24-04 11:43 PM

wish I could hit one when opponents have those hands!

junYUN 10-24-04 11:51 PM

hit it once, not online poker though, real life.

won myself $10

One on Royal Vegas... Got a high hand Jackpot of $50 or something like that....
Damn that was a long tiime ago.... Come to think of it, I'm wondering if it was on Royal Vegas afterall? Can't remember for sure.

Hit one on UB too.

Probably used up all the Royals I had coming to me in this lifetime... lol

I hit a royal in a home game once. The other person had a baby flush and paid me off nicely. Like you though, we were playing cheap limits.

Had a few straight flushes as well, both online and B/M.

One in spades on pokerroom.com in a multitable tournament. Knocked a guy out, got a T-shirt, big woot woot.

Finished on the bubble, of course.

Still waiting!
 
I am still waiting for one. I hope I catch it on a big Tourney :D

I've had exactly one in my life.

It was funny... I was bitching about never having one about a month ago, and just a few days later, I got one.

I've had K high straight flushes 2 or 3 times... but only one royal.

I have had about 3-4 online in just over 2 years playing. But my most satisfying Royal was at an English Casino playing against the bank. Good job I covered the Jackpot with a 1 pound anti, I recieved 2450 for the hand coz the bank had 44, and 12k for the Jackpot.

Must be nice, everyone getting royals. I have never had a royal flush.

I think the best hand I've ever made was a wheel straight flush playing O8B, the royal flush of O8B.

Been playing poker for about ten years and have never had a royal or str8 flush. The poker gods definitely don't shine on me.

PShabi 10-25-04 09:22 AM

not yet
 
It's the only hand I haven't held. My best after a straight flush was flopping quad aces.

eddo31 10-25-04 11:13 AM

ive had one, and unfortunately it was only for play money. i was playing on ub just trying to get a feel for the site, seeing if i liked the interface, and i hit one in hearts (had AK in my hand, flopped QJT). at least i hit their play money jackpot, and got paid a little for it.

brokeagain 10-25-04 03:00 PM

i've had 2 live and i lost count after 5 online. does suck when you get no action but a win is a win is a win

GeoffM 10-25-04 03:08 PM

FIVE!!??!! WTF is that.

I have been playing for some 9 years now, and the only ones I've ever had were in wild card games, so those don't count. Maybe I'm due. :confused:

johnbaker 10-25-04 06:12 PM

Ive had 1 on partypoker in an SNG, that was it... ive had a few straight flushes that were nice, especially since i got nearly nothing out of them :)

TajaUk 10-25-04 06:15 PM

Forgot to say I saw one flop last month on ladbrokes. So I guess everyone had one at the table!

bothecorgi 10-25-04 07:04 PM

Closest I've come is a 10 high straight flush.

johnbaker 10-25-04 09:11 PM

i flopped a queen high straightflush in a home tourney the other day.... i checked till the turn, where the guy promptly went all in for his last chip. hah.
